I'm sorry here but I just refuse to believe a graphic equaliser would work in the way I want it to. I have a big problem with the new CD by Paloma Faith. The vocals are hard, brittle and glassy and very annoying. Even with a graphic equaliser in circuit the vocals are still going to be hard, brittle and glassy because that is the way they have been recorded. A graphic equaliser cannot change that. OK, the anomaly may be quieter but so will everything else that is contained within the same frequency band...! In my honest opinion they do not solve a specific problem they merely add a whole host of other problems.
