I've done a fair bit of EQ testing with D600. Sometimes I wish the D600 had a sub-woofer 'off' switch. Taming the bass will help with creating a more neutral signature, and it may sound better for certain acoustic and instrumental pieces.
After a while I just embraced the D600s character, and that bass isn't always going to sound right for all music types. But, for some modern music, designed with a subwoofer in mind, the D600 performs it's best.
Right now I'm listening to some jazz, and notched down the bass as it was just to forward, and it sounds quite good. Certainly reducing frequency is more preferred in equalization, as in boosting a frequency, the effect is similar to using a compressor, and it can introduce unwanted resonance into the band.
Watching a movie, listening to psytrance, dub, dnb, or techno, I'm not touching a thing with the EQ.
