Hello all, I am fairly new here. I am the recent purchaser of three well used pairs of Stax from Ebay and am still playing with them! I will probably keep the Lambda + Lambda Pro as they are "best". My speakers have had very little use in the past month.
Thanks to PiccoloNamek for his excellent EQ tutorial:

I have some questions for anyone caring to respond:
1. It sounds (pardon the pun) that the best way to eq your phones is subjectively. Using the above cited link, and the free (yay!) tools, I have found resonant peak(s) and Piccolo's tutorial is quite clear on how to remove them.
2. I have read in his tutorial, and elsewhere, that the best (or easiest?) way to EQ a system is to use pink noise. Not certain on this, but I think one uses octave or 1/3 octave pink noises, and tries to eq each band so that the samples sound equally loud.
3. Is it best to do that with octave or 1/3 octave?
4. Other suggestions are welcome. Thank you.
