Hi, I just want to share what I found to be the ultimate settings for my particular setup. (I did a lot of trial and error with almost every combination) I am using the Sony a728b with Sennheiser HD580s running
into a PA2v2 amp.
Volume on player: 17
DAC settings (firmware menu)
(enable "hold" switch, then while holding the menu button press:
up, up, down, down, right, left, up , down, up ,down, right, play/pause)
Bass: -1.5 @ 50Hz
Treble: -7.5 @ 15kHz
Clear Bass: +1
Equalizers: +2, +1, 0, +2, +1
DSEE, Clear Stereo and Normalizer: OFF
I wasn't really happy with the sound until I found these settings and now I am loving it. Really improves midrange + vocals and doesn't sound "synthetic" anymore. I mainly listen to Heavy Metal but this works good with nearly everything I played from Judas Priest and Manowar to Madonna and Tears for Fears. I hope someone else finds these settings useful.
