If you have not already, you can try the Parametric EQ setting posted by one of the members here post #1156. For me, it took this DAP to another level.
Filter 1 - 33.3Hz/+4.0dB/BPF/1.0
Filter 2 - 55.0Hz/+6.5dB/BPF/1.0
Filter 3 - 1124.0Hz/+2.0dB/BPF/1.0
Filter 4 - 10000.0Hz/+8.4dB/BPF/1.0
Filter 5 - 10886.5Hz/+6.0dB/BPF/1.0
Big thanks for the link about PAW 5000 technical review, really helpful!
But I don't understand why I should use this (or any other) PEQ settings, specially because all kind of headphones / CIEMs have different tuning and this would never match, because of personal taste and tuning. My used headphones / CIEMs sounding perfect, I would never change the sound signature, I'm always looking for linear neutral sources with low output impedance. In general I never use a EQ at all. My headphones and CIEMs need to sound to me perfect from the first listening, if not I would not buy them. But if you like this settings that's fine.
