Maybe speaker placement, you can tinker with it.

Yeah, if you end up hearing more bass while working, you'll trun it down which is what you are looking to change in your end CD.

Try the PGMusic 10 band EQ, boosting 30 and 60, put it into the main out FX area and use it while working. Once you get it set correctly (thru experimentation) save that setting as a preset for easy use in the future. To set it quickly, try different settings, and make notes, so later when you play the CD elsewhere you can go back and say "that';s the one that worked".

When you go to do the final merge just use the bypass button on the plugin. This way you are hearing more bass from your speakers, but not writing it to the end result for other systems .. then test on other systems.

I do not work here, but the benefits are still awesome
