Monitors to headphones

Why do my headphones sound so much better than my studio monitors through the kemper!

Because your headphones most likely have a very different frequency response than your monitors. Not to mention room reflections/room modes, and the fact that sound is perceived very differently on headphones than on monitors.

What are your monitors and what are your headphones?

The monitors are studiospares seiwen and I'm just using dre beats for headphones

After doing a bit of moving around the room the monitors sound better but still not a touch on the dre beats

dre beats have massively boosted low end, I seem to hear everywhere. That's probably what it is
