I usually use the LF, but dont really like the SF. I agree with ClieOS that the SF would be nice if there were less of it. It adds too much 'air' to the music, making it unnatural sounding IMO, but it could be good if there were less of it. I like the LF switch on 75% of my music. on some tracks, it adds too much bass, but in my experience its generally on poorly mastered tracks, or generas that shouldn't have a bass boost like classical.
I Love the punch that the LF gives to kick drums, drums, and the super low end, like sub 30hz. The Sub bass is really helped by the LF. I tried matching the EQ on my DX50 to the LF gain settings, but it still lacks a certain 'punch' in the bass, and the highs still aren't quite the same. This is probably because the DX only has a 5 band EQ. Also, people have posted graphs of the DX output with the EQ, and the roll off is more concentrated around the EQ band. The LF seems to have a very smooth smiley face from bass to treble. The DX EQ looks more like mountains with peaks at each band
