I have the two bass frequencies set higher, the vocal / mid frequencies pulled down slightly (this is actually key to listening to stuff like vocal rock to get the bass tones through properly), and the treble frequencies up slightly - the EQ curve almost looks like a banana on its side. Set up this way, it's pretty good for rock, heavy metal, and trance / dance which I listen to the most.
First thing I did was turn off Logic 7 on the wife's X5. That said my only disappointment with the B&W is the fact you can't negate its DSP at all. Gut feeling said "studio" would be the most accurate to a true stereo source but ultimately I landed elsewhere as both stereo sources and my 5.1 sources plus EQ and trim all work best on "concert".
