best headphone equalizer settings image

What are the best equalizer settings for listening to thrash metal? I'm listening with decent headphones and can adjust the equalizer on my computer.
My sound driver is Realtek HD audio.
Answer
Metal typically sounds good close to flat equalization, you can bring down the middle a little if you want to hear some new sounds on the high and low ends but nothing to dynamic. I wouldn't add pre-amp because most metal is mastered right at the clipping range.

What would be the best settings to get the best sound quality?

I am using Dell by IDT Audio Settings. The equalizer are arranged in the fillowing order; 31Hz, 62Hz, 125Hz, 250Hz, 500Hz, 1kHz, 2kHz, 4kHz, 8kHz, 16kHz. I have set the following db; +15db on 31Hz, +9db on 62Hz, 0db on 125Hz, +10db on 250Hz, -1db on 500Hz, -7db on 1kHz, -15db on 2kHz, -9db on 4kHz, -3db on 8kHz, -10db on 16kHz.

Answer
The best settings depend on the speakers or headphones being used.
Start with all sliders at zero (centered), then separately move each one
all the way down, all the way up, and then back to the center.
Do this with each one in turn.
Listen to the effects produced and try to remember them.
(It isn't easy, especially at first, so don't get frustrated if you forget).
To make meaningful adjustments:
If you think the relative level of a particular frequency range
is either excessive or deficient, move the corresponding slider
to try to correct it.
Each slider should be kept as close to the center of its range as possible
while still furnishing the desired effect.
No slider (especially at the low-frequency end)
should ever be left at its maximum setting.
I prefer "flat" response (the equivalent of all sliders centered)
in my audio systems, and to make mental,
rather than physical, "adjustments" to the sound.
This takes some practice, but it works very well for me,
and doesn't require that there be an equalizer available.
