I'm by no means an audiophile and am just getting into the whole audio arena. EQ's were always a mystery to me...i mean, i get how they work...i get the frequency correlations, but i've never known how to REALLY use them to get the best sound out of a system. Could anyone give some hints or point me to a good resource as to appropriate (or at least reference) settings for different types of music? Or is it just about sitting in your car and tweaking until it sounds right?

I listen to a wide variety of music on my Empeg. I switch from high pitched punk to thumping electronic music or hip hop to classical quite frequently and want to have EQ settings to match each type of music. I've noticed the setting i usually use for general high bass makes punk stylings sound like crap. (hrmm...that just gave me an idea for the wish list... you could tag each song with a particular custom EQ setting number on the Empeg so that it automatically switches to the appropriate EQ settings for each song...hrmmmm). Okay, so that aside... could anyone point me in the right direction?

Thanks!!!
