Bose QuietComfort Ultra is an over-ear headphone. This measured profile applies 10 parametric bands with a -4.5 dB preamp to bring it toward the Harman target. Low end: it reins in what the measurement shows is too much; treble: it adds back what the measurement shows is missing. Biggest single move: -7.9 dB at 105 Hz (Low shelf).
