I think truly flat responses is impossible with headphones. Just compare the sizes of your more-or-less flat response studio speakers and the size of the average headphone. A speaker with a diameter of only a couple of cm has its resonance never in the range the bass-driver of your studio-speakers. So you have to do several design-tricks to try to equalize the response. And that with the limited amount of space. It is a wonder these headphones sound as good as they do. (And most cheap one and even a lot of not-so-cheap ones sound like crap...)
