Well what preset equ setting do you guys use? which is your fav?.

I tend to use lounge. Its annoying that you cant save your custom equ settings, my Er4s phones need a bit more amplification which can be done with a custom equ. Theres a frightening lack of volume on my 40gb 4th gen pod with most phones.

i use treble reducer since i have the EX51's and their ear-drum piercing treble. then i can also have more bass when i turn te volume up a bit more.

What is the loudness preset designed for exactly? It make my music sound horrid. I listen mainly to rock, so I did try that EQ setting at first, but the treble on "ROCK" is way too abrasive and the bass is way too overwhelming, and drowns out a lot of the details. Now I use the latin setting (slighlt lower bass and less treble) which is honest to most of the music I listen to without over-fatiguing.

I've never used any of the EQs on the iPod (not for serious listening anyway)

OFF sounds the best to me (so the context of this thread is pretty moot to me regardless
