    Amazing EQ. I´m a gamer and a music fan, personally love high bass so I changed (for Corsair Virtuoso XT) the second column (64hz) to +10db. This little change plus your configuration works amazing for either gaming or hearing music. Loved your video, helped a lot!!

    I’m using a Logitech G Pro X. I downloaded the most popular community made EQ preset. I believe it was called “Sound 3.0”. The pattern was very similar to your EQ set with the values on the right side being slightly higher. I personally liked your preset more, it was really well balanced overall and the bass wasn’t overdone. Well done!

    I test all my headsets with the same song so that way I get a balance of a lot of different sound combinations at the same time plus vocals. Trivium: In Waves starting at 90 seconds. I tried your eq but not on the virtuosos but the HS70 pros and it was way to tinny in the highs (for me) , I find it’s always best to start flat and move sliders from there and once you get a sound you like to lower them as much without affecting it.
    I’m running +8, +4, +2, +1, +1, +2, +2, +3, +2, +4 on the HS70s and that is give me a nice sound on the warm side. I do like my bass to hit but not muddy like the movies preset but I find if the highs are to high it’s fatiguing to listen to for long periods.

    I use a Corsair Virtuoso headset and my EQ is from left to right = +8 , +6 , +4 , +1 , 0 , +1 , +2 , +4 , +6 , +8
    To me this is the best combination of high's and low's. Sounds good playing music and playing games without having to adjust anything. I like a significant amount of bass when I game. For example when playing FPS shooters like BF2042 the explosions and gun fire sounds so good. It really immerses me into the game more.

    My arctis pro wireless only has 5 eq adjustments, so I purchased Dolby Atmos and copied your eq directly to my dolby eq and oh my thank you! Dolby imo is just a way better route anyway. It has 10 eq adjustments as opposed to the stock 5.

    You need to do this for the more economical headsets! Most for us have $150 and less cans!

      Using windows eq, you can replicate his settings if you dont have a dedicated dac amp or software for your equalizer.

    Any suggestions for EPOS H6Pro? I recently got their 300 DAC and wanted to see if you had a guide for theirs.
