What I mean by this is, if you have access to a graphic equalizer, how do you adjust it (Headphones or speakers, though headphones are likely a better test)
For me I tend to go more or less flat
BUT FOR
I will practically snip out the 500 Hz band all together (40Db down from the other ends of the spectrum) and seriously tone down the bands that are on each side of that.
Interestingly I recall some 40 years ago having a hearing test and the sensitivity that I recorded at the 500 Hz band exceeded the ability of the machine to record (Basically the needle went to the top of the chart and flat-lined)
Do other people do this with graphic equalisers or is this somewhat unusual?
