Yeah... I've tried the XMMS EQ for some ogg files on my desktop and get the same result - guess I hadn't noticed before because I usually don't use headphones with my desktop. I googled and found that this is a known problem with XMMS - something in the EQ is tied to the codec. Although, you'd think the XMMS guys would have come up with a solution by now - heck even my music software for my old Palm pda could equalize my oggs. I'm really rather bummed about this discovery - the bulk of my music collection is in ogg format.

I did find a link to an "EQ fix" for XMMS - however reading the FAQ it looks like it's waaay too CPU hungry for ARM usage. Here's the link if anybody else is interested.
