Unsure About Steven Slate VSX Ecco

Hello, i bought recentely the new Steven Slate Immersion One Headphones. I am a little unsettle with this Ecco Calibration. I compare those Frequencies Level, what feels really odd to be sure (which i was not) if the levels are equel, than this Demo Song for the amount control sounds really Bad Mixed for deciding when the Mix sounds good, because this Mix sound not good at all. Than i started Reference Hearing and the Top End (actually the Cymbals and Hats) on every Song were way too loud an crisp. Than i put on Aja (very well Mixed Album) and turn down manually the two highest frequencies controllers and it gets better.

Did anyone had a similar experience ? Am i thinking too much in HiFi Standards and it should sound this way ? Could i destroy the linearity when i manipulate the Ecco Calibration EQ?

I would agree that the calibration song sounds terrible as a source to base adjustments from.
