As an audiophile that forgets all his research after I make the purchase and set it up, I have no idea what you’re “supposed” to do. In my headphones I just listen to everything flat.
Home theaters literally need EQing, channel by channel, to get a flat response in your viewing space (because acoustics stuff), however.
Typically speaking, you’d want to cut instead of boost. Cutting is easy; You just reduce the volume. Boosting is much more complicated, because you need to “add” signal where none exists. So boosts tend to be noisy and/or outright distorted, while cuts will maintain a clean audio signal.
Need to boost around 2KHz? Try cutting everything else instead.
DSP? Analog EQ?

That’s cool AF thanks!
I hope this changes your life.
Thanks! I hope it does too.
