A 'perfect' iTunes equalizer setting
Authored by: halo_bone on May 15, '09 08:48:05PM

This preset causing peaking in a lot of my music. It cranks these frequencies too much.. just listen to a part in your music when there is already a lot going on--with the preset, it crackles. Without it, it hits like it's supposed to and doesn't peak. It sounds "better", only because it's just making things louder, while leaving the bass down enough to not totally overdue it. Try starting out at flat and compensating just enough to make up for how crappy your speakers are, you'll have much better results.

The mastering of music has enough limiting going on already, you shouldn't need to crank up the frequencies like this.

Also, every set of speakers and every single song (at the least every album) is going to need a different EQ to sound great. Just blowing everything out is not the way to make all of your music sound great.
