I have tried both Amir's and Maiky76's EQ settings and both sounded off.
Thanks for the pointer to the AutoEq guide! After a 3GB git checkout I was able to follow the guide and arrived at a different set of PEQ settings:
Code:
Preamp: -6.5 dB
Filter 1: ON PK Fc 77 Hz Gain -5.7 dB Q 0.44
Filter 2: ON PK Fc 343 Hz Gain -5.3 dB Q 0.38
Filter 3: ON PK Fc 871 Hz Gain 6.0 dB Q 0.55
Filter 4: ON PK Fc 15868 Hz Gain 6.6 dB Q 0.22
Optional:
Filter 5: ON PK Fc 240 Hz Gain 0.7 dB Q 6.13
Filter 6: ON PK Fc 2471 Hz Gain 0.7 dB Q 2.69
Filter 7: ON PK Fc 5084 Hz Gain -6.2 dB Q 3.11
Filter 8: ON PK Fc 6201 Hz Gain 3.9 dB Q 1.76
Filter 9: ON PK Fc 15324 Hz Gain -0.8 dB Q 1.30
and the following result:

Subjective thoughts: Much better sounding, more balanced FR than the other EQ I tried. Still not as good as my ER2XR overall, there is noticeable smearing of complex transients, such as the sound of violins, but definitely listenable to. Some things are same or even better than ER2XR, such as the bass depth. Perhaps a C+ or B- in terms of technicalities, after EQing?
