This was not done for FM broadcast as most of my other presets.
The aim was to produce crisp & powerful sound. Bass frequencies are
boosted (especially lower ones) and compressors were carefully calibrated to avoid
distortion.
Some focus on treble too: gain is high around starting with 2.8 KHz.
Adding high gain to ~ 3 KHz makes the sound cleared, as it's the frequency for
human sounds 'S' and 'SH'.
Medium frequencies are a bit compressed and clipped, because that's where the
human ear is most sensitive. Overall, nice for every-day listening, it provides
a reasonably loud volume and high-dynamics. Good for both headphone usage
and high-power amplifiers.
PS: The input quality also counts... remember : garbage in > garbage out.
