everyone has different tastes.

Play around with it, have fun and do what is sounds best to you.

I've determined that any tuned EQ is gonna sound alright with the type of music you dialed it into, but will sound bad with others. Pick a genre you want to hear the loudest and tune to that.

The EQ should not be set to make a particular song/genre sound "better" but rather should be set to reproduce sound accurately. When that happens, you hear how the song was meant to sound. Trying to fit the EQ to a variety of tastes in music is just pointless.

PencilGeek's thread is a good starting point, as he actually measured sound levels, etc. http://www.m3post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=137825.
