While this I’m sure sounds good on small speakers or cheap headphones, I must say it leaves a lot to be desired on studio quality speakers and headphones.

I actually liked your settings better, so I saved them and named them ‘Riccardo’s’

[...] one equalizer setting for your iTunes collection to rule every single song or album. Sure there are some pretty good general settings, and the preset options are great too, but for the best experience [...]

@RYAN: yeah I agree, pre-amp setting at less than 6dB gives the best output.

i found the best one..dont listen to them if you want real EQ that has good bass and treble then do +5, 0, -5, -2, -3, 0(move it down a bit so its between the lines) -3, +4, +5.

Some songs may have static at that setting. To remove the static, I find that setting all of them 6dB’s lower is helpful.

This does sound better on lower quality headphones for sure, but high-end ones will sound quite muddy, I personally like Bass + Treble boost for most EQ’s

This Equalizer settings maیe me remember old days in the 90s when I have done the same setting in the winamp and I’ve been in the space with that Destroyed sound

Amazing to see this post is still top of google when it comes to tweaking the sound in itunes.

I have been using this setting since late 2009, and it is still good. Not long ago my brother and i had a long drive and we listened to some music. My brother suddenly noticed that the sound from my iphone was more crisp and lively.

I explained him about the “perfect equalizer setting” and we tried playing first a song from his iphone to the stereo, and then the same song from my iphone to stereo. I cannot believe the difference it was )

My brothers iphone was playing somehow flat and with no clear bass and highs. Mine was filling the car with music and we could feel the bass in our seats and the singer seemed so much closer and crisper.

Try it!

There is no such thing as a universally perfect EQ.

Mate I thought it was BS, but it sounded GREAT….lol I decided to give the amp a boost though. I absolutely love it.

For those who criticize, seriously…. the dude likes it, others like it, so who the hell cares?

try +7 -4 0 -3 0 +3 -3 -2 +3 +6 and the pre-amp set to +3
for me it worked best.
