So, i noticed a lot of you guys talk about tuning the EQs to your preference. I have no idea what to do in this area, if i can even do anything. Im using a FiioE7, docked on the E9, so thats what makes me wonder if im able to tweak sound at all. I mostly listen to pandora as well. In general im asking, am i able to use an EQ? If so, what should i be using/use? And how do i tune it to what i like?

This is a review of a pair of free IEM's I recieved from DUNU as part of a give away contest they recently held here on Head-fi. When I recieved my package the first thing I notices was...

Best closed headphones I had heard - very flat response, almost no midrange distortion, very easy to drive (good for portable), good soundstage (definately better than K240), good isolation, but...

Overall excellent buds, very good sound quality, especially for their price, the medium set of tips fits exactly in my ears and provides a near perfect seal. Bass is very detailed, but not...

I'll keep this very short. They are very smooth sounding. Treble toned down so not so good for rock but have a magic about them that makes them better than mark 2. I use them with a '89/'90...

If you mean software based EQ then, sure you can use if you have suitable playback software. Tuning the sound ... maybe learning something 'bout use of EQ would help you to start.

Any prefered EQ software guys? I think i heard WASAPI for one, any others?
For anything that supports VST plugins (such as foobar2000 with VST support plugins; yes, I just said it needs plugins to use more plugins), Electri-Q is a reasonably popular choice here. There's a free edition, which helps. Note that it's a parametric EQ, not a graphic EQ.
I just use the hardware graphic EQ on my X-Fi cards, though.
