Avoid getting "too tasty" especially in the bass. Otherwise you may be a frequent new tweeter buyer.

A pro sound tech will tell you: use the EQ to "carve the sound" as in wood or stone, remove what you don't want. At the same time, a Body shop guy will tell you: a little putty is ok here & there, but a lot in any one place is bad. Same applies to boosting more than a little.
