And Jedreck's settings are even more extreme than the default "Hi-Lo-Boost Plus" ones, which increase the distortion in an ugly way in my environment.
When reducing the three lower bands a little bit compared to the "Hi-Lo Boost Plus" Settings, sound is ok again.
As Swizzle wrote, instead of increasing the EQ levels, use boosting with care and better reduce the frequencies you don't want to boost.
As I currently can't compare to 5.x, I don't know if the sound/distortion is different on 5.x with the same EQ settings. But in general for me the sound quality of 6.x is as good as with 5.x, if the EQ is configured in the way I like the sound.
That's why I moved the equalizer settings from moodeaudio 5 to moodeaudio 6 that they are just the way I like them. It's only in version 5, because in version 6 it's not. I will try to change (decrease) the gain and settings of all bands by the same value and then we will see how it sounds.
