Hello all!
I currently run my Axe II through one QSC K12 with great results. I've been looking to do more playing/tweaking with headphones while the Mrs. is home or sleeping but I'm running into an issue I'm sure many of you have run into.
I have a pair of AKG K 271 MKIIs that sound very buzzy/fizzy when I use my high gain presents so I cannot tweak current presets or create new ones using headphones and expect them to sound useable when going through my K12. I am in no way an EQ maven but I'd like your input on this idea to see if I should even waste my time.
Can I take a preset that sounds to my liking through the K12 and add an EQ at the end of the preset tweaking it to sound through the headphones like it does through the K12? Or would I be killing myself trying to get it close enough to work? (the EQ in question would only be used when I'm using headphones, off when using my monitor of course)
If I am able to EQ the headphones to sound close to the K12 in one preset, could I theoretically use that same EQ at the end of every preset and trust that all presets will sound equally as good through the K12?
If the above is not possible, would a pair of AKG K 701's (or a competitive equivalent) get me to where I want to be?
Any thoughts, ideas or feedback are greatly appreciated.
Thank you!
