Parametric EQ advice for warmer/fuller sound

[wizardofoz (Mr Fix It aka The Wiz)]

Play with what is there…use your ears…it’s only your ears that you need to please…other peoples settings are just that. Its going to depend on your room and your speakers to a large extent and the sensitivity of your hearing in the audio spectrum. Everyone is different

Could anyone please help me by showing an example of frequency settings in Parametric EQ to achieve ;

Warmer , thicker/fuller sound especially on vocals.and more laidback , less harsh and less bright/forward overall sound wtihout losing too much detail on the top end.

My system is ;
Focal Sopra No.2 speakers
Primaluna Dialogue Preamp
Hypex Ncore400 monoblocks
Gustard x20pro DAC with Singxer SU-1
HQPlayer-Roon-TIDAL Upsampled to 512DSD

Arda_Gurcuoglu,

Where did you end up on this? Did you get the result you were looking for? I also run Focal 2s powered by a very clean Cambridge Audio Edge NQ and W in a reasonably ‘live’ room. I settled on this:

I’m sure it could be tweaked, and it doesn’t follow the general EQ advice quite precisely, but it seemed to do the job without closing in the sound stage.

I entirely agree. My sound is much mellower now I have repositioned my Muso and added some more soft furnishings. Experimenting with equalizer settings just made the sound odd.
