Like, if you take away 4db “from treble”, should that be distributed roughly amongst bass and mid or solely either if you want it to be heavy for that range?

Is it like an equation that benefits from balancing it out?

    I’m no audiophile, but I always adjust the EQ based on what I’m listening to and optimize it to my preference. Sometimes it just needs an adjustment to a specific frequency range (reduce the treble a bit, boost the midrange so the vocals are more apparent, etc).

    A lot of the EQ presets will apply symmetrically, though. e.g. “Rock” on my phone’s EQ will boost the lowest and highest frequencies equally while slightly reducing the middle range. The “Pop” preset does the exact opposite.

    My non-audiophile advice is to just set them to what sounds best to you.
