    The document compares the frequency response of Philips Fidelio L2 headphones without equalization (EQ) to the response with EQ. Without EQ, the headphones' response deviates significantly from the Harman target curve. With EQ, individual filters are applied to compensate for deficiencies at specific frequencies, resulting in a response that closely matches the Harman target. Graphs and data show the EQ filters used and how they improve accuracy of the frequency response.
