I was messing around with my D2 and I figured out an easy way to counteract the bass rolloff problem in the D2. Since people always complain about it, I might as well post this.
The equalizer on the D2 can only control frequencies from 80Hz and above. It can obviously play lower frequencies than 80Hz, but they seem to attenuate the lower you go from there.
What I did was to keep the equalizer flat but move all the sliders down the same amount. I have all mine at -5.
This makes it necessary to turn up the volume higher to reach listening level. But what you will now notice is that it also boosted the bass lower than 80Hz, where the D2's equalizer can't reach. Since it cannot control these frequencies, we are simply making the frequency response more flat by lowering the volume of the entire range to that of the very low frequencies.
Note: Mach3Bass also boosts frequencies lower than the EQ can go, but it makes the bass more boomy and doesn't extend as low as the EQ method I mentioned.
