Yes, it works with any kind of headphones/headsets, but if the headphones are low quality, the sound may be distorted.

The equalizer only modifies sound, but only a little bit. Changing too much may overload some frequencies and the sound may get distorted. This is just for fine tuning.

Also if it's not workins at all: modify the values, save as new presset, reboot, listen.

Here is my setup:

ALSO It's 6:16 AM here, I need to get some rest, but before I go, I want to say Happy Easter for the people who celebrate it on 5th of May.

Happy Easter!
