Very true. And after doing some RTA work you will calibrate yourself, as well as the speakers/system/room. I find that I want to roll off the high end slightly, and want to bump the low-end *for some source material*. It's like adding salt and pepper to your food.Originally posted by Giskard

The other stuff can be quite fun though if not taken too seriously
My high-end tuning stays contant for most any decent recording. But I find that I want to customize the bass on nearly every CD - even if by a dB or two. The difference between weak bass and flabby boom can be very subtle. At least for my ears in my room with my speakers.
