============================================================
🔥 Do This First:
To get the most out of your recording or streaming space, I recommend sound treatment including acoustic absorption panels. This is the single biggest way to improve your audio before investing in other gear. You can make your own, or I highly recommend GIK Acoustics as they manufacture some of the best quality acoustic treatment available at an excellent value.

Greetings bro how can I contact you?

[@lukenycz7967]

Would it be bad to do a hearing test to see what the frequency response of your ears are then buy headphones based on that?

[@askdrtk]

You could do that, but at some point some point if you are confident in your monitoring solution whether speakers or headphones it is less about the very highest frequencies (what most of us lack in our hearing to some extent) and more about the midrange (that we hopefully haven't lost).
