Hello Phil I tend to use Keith at about 60 and frequency 8 as my default voice as he is less bassy than the rest through my headphones. I quite like Perfect Paul but he is a bit bassy. I wonder if APH might consider a bass cut in a future firmware? Of course, different people have different listening preferences.
