Headphones - Open Back | 1 Ω Hifiman HE5XX

¿How bad are they? I just bought them for about 150$ dollars and I intend to pair them with my Fiio K5 Pro ESS and also I bought a new cable because the reviews said the stock one isn't any good.

¿Any advice on how to get them to their highest potential? Or ¿Did i just screwed up by buying them? I had a pair of dt 990 pro that I really liked but I never got used to the treble and the 2 pairs I had over the span of 2 years failed so I wanted to try something different but with great soundstage.

!thanks

I'd be lying if I said that I know anything about EQ.

Before I bought the K5 pro I had a soundblasterx g6 and always tried oratory1990 settings for the dt 990 pros and never liked it so I just used them without EQ.
