This things sound great out of the box [though im not an audiofile(elitist)]

Anyone have these speakers have experimented with changing any settings or EQ?

The way any speakers will sound is very well dependent on the environment they are placed in. Somebody else might find EQ settings that work very well for them yet will sound like crap in another room. You may want to invest in a sound pressure meter and get some tone generating software and make some measurements and adjust the eq until you get a fairly flat response but there is no guaranty it will sound good .

Your best bet is to adjust them until they sound good to you.

If you want to go all out, get yourself a receiver with built in speaker calibration like Audyssey. They come with a measurement microphone and check parameters like speaker distance, polarisation, frequency response, time delay, room acoustic, etc. I highly recommend Audysey MultEQ as a minimum.

Without having to go to an audiophile type of discussion, Logitech speakers tend to be muddy and bassy (although I haven't used one in the last few years other than the z5500). My recommendation for a quick tune? Turn the bass setting all the way down on the sub, and for your music player, use the EQ to turn the midrange up. Those are the weak points for Logitech speakers, muddy, loud bass and no midrange.

music on them sounds amazing, but TV shows sound kind of empty and quiet(as in i have to turn the volume up by 10% or more) maybe lacks mids?

It's hard to say without knowing the source. Usually video is a lower volume than music. If you can adjust EQ, play around. You can't hurt the speakers so just keep playing until it sounds right.

That's the thing about audio, there's no 'right' setting for everything. Movies and music are two different beasts.
