zonalblitz_audio 0 Report post Posted August 27, 2006 The question about EQ or not really depends in your situation and personal preference. If your set-up does not produce 'enough' to match optimal listening, it doesn't hurt to do EQ. You might consider EQ if you dislike the way it sound on Neutral. Personally, i usually compare with experiences in live concerts or performances. I usually do EQ to match as accurately as possible to a living situation. In My Opinion, it is alright to do EQ, as long as you do not introduce extraordinary elements (distortions) or heavy EQ-ing in simplier terms. There is a situation where EQ is not necessary; where you have a good threatre set-up. Bottomline : You decide for yourself with your ears! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest dogfight Report post Posted August 27, 2006 is alright to do EQ, as long as you do not introduce extraordinary elements (distortions) or heavy EQ-ing in simplier terms. how true. i do boost a little of 100-130hz to up the vocals sometimes. and upping the highest ends 18-20khz? do give you a sense of airiness..do correct me if i'm wrong..sometimes if you find that the bass isn't as strong as you like it on a good set of hifi speakers/ bookshelf speakers, you can also boost the lower ends of the eq to get that DEEP, soul-touching thump just my 2cents =) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As long you get a natural full spectrum of sound. A poor EQ setting will sound like 'hollow' or "muffed' in some range. EQ can help to improve soundstage due to your environment factors. Especially at outdoors, some range of sound is hardly audible. Or if you have a live concert, blend-in if you are expecting a noisy crowd. It is to make you music sound as 'Natural' as possible.
