Well personally, I listen to my music flat. Professionals have spent a lot of time making sure that the EQs are just right. If your speakers are lacking a certain frequency, then you may wish to increase that range, but otherwise, I don't see the need to adjust it for listening purposes.

I can't stand it when people turn the bass all the way up. Trance isn't about bass, it's about melody. I use to give the mids and highs a little bit extra cos my speakers were a tad too bass heavy, but not any more that I have better ones.

WORD!!

I totally agree. If you are on shitty computer speakers that have not low end then cranking the bass makes sense, though I would recommend getting better speakers.

the best way is what sounds best to you. dont let anyone tell youwhats supposed to sound right...you listen for yourself. dont be afraid to experiment since every system is different. personally i like flat too...but flat sound as in balanced sound so in any system ill turn down frequencies that are exagerated and bring out frequencies that arent emphasized enough.
