It usually is the responsibility of the mixing engineer to bring out the mood of the song and ensure that it will resonate the same in the listeners systems. Most of the engineers I interact with (including my own mixes) create different destinations like tape, CD's etc and play it on different CD systems, car stereo systems and adjust the mix accordingly. So unless we know what exactly the reference destination was in this case, it is very difficult to get the same effect, unless you have those good Studio monitors. Remember how "Roja" sounded on those stereo tape players?
EQ's won't help you much.
Now, couple of people have thought about it (George Lucas with THX and Creative with EAX). For e.g. if the sound was created in a THX environment, and if you have a THX compliant player, you *will* hear the same as the producer wanted you to. But this again doesn't help audio CD's due to its limited dynamic range.
DSD (Did anyone see this on CD covers?) to record SACDs is a step towards achieving this goal. We will have to wait till SACD and DVD-Audio fight it out and we start seeing more commercial materials in these formats.. :(
OK, I'm going to stop now before starts sounding like a bad school paper
