That's not really true, the eq settings probably have more to do with
headphones vs. speakers then the particular track being played.

But yea I guess part of the problem is none of us really understand
what the equalizer is for. I used it when I DJed at a dance about 6
years ago and haven't really used one since then. It makes sense to me
in that context, but not really otherwise.
