>I like EQ, but even I only use it on devices that save the EQ profile on them like Bluetooth headphones

This is what I love about the Qudelix 5K. I use it as a desktop and portable DAC/AMP and recently just set it up as an output for my Raspberry Pi network streamer. It's basically permanently attached to the end of my headphone cable and the EQ comes with me where ever I go, regardless of source.

I'd love to do that but if you've got a handful of wired headphones switching between profiles becomes a chore.

I almost feel like buying q5k for each headphone.

I'm also experimenting with creating middle of the road EQ profiles that address multiple headphones that have similar characteristics at once so I do less EQ switching

The last Qudelix update wiped all of my EQ profiles and I haven't had the motivation to redo them. I love the thing but that kinda pissed me off.

That sucks. One of the updates reset the names of my profiles but not the EQ settings themselves. Might want to see if that’s the case. Also, in case you’re not aware (I wasn’t at first) there’s a chrome plugin so you can modify the profiles and all other settings in a desktop browser. Still a bit tedious but better than using the phone app. They really need an export / import feature for profiles. That would serve as a backup method as well as making loading custom profiles much easier.
