Here's something new to try. Put all the tone controls at +12dB. You heard me, put them all at the top. (Turn the volume down to compensate of course). I think it sounds better. It shouldn't, but it does. Maybe some math issues in the equalizer are truncating bits at normal settings. Or on the other hand, maybe my ears are playing tricks on me. Audio is tricky stuff.
also you're assuming in doing that that the three equalizing bands cover the whole audio spectrum ending with a basically flat overall gain across all freqs, which it undoubtedly will not do. you will have dips between the bands and odd crossover canceling out of waveforms...
you may certainly prefer the sound with the low mid and high cranked, it just will almost definitely sound different from overall gain on a flat freq eq setting.
fwiw.
