The RX EQ doesn't seem to do much for me on CW because I am already limiting the response by the DSP bandwidth. Normally I use 300-450 Hz for tuning around, and then narrow the bandwidth as needed for weak signals or QRM. My passband is centered at 520, so I don't hear the very low and high

Also, communications type dynamic microphones often have rather uneven response curves. Some I've seen have way too much response below 500 or 600 Hz. The equalizer can be used to compensate for this response. Electret (condenser) mics also show a bass boost when worked close as with a
