Well I've bought kraken v3 pro a few months ago and I need eq settings that are good for everyday use. Listening to music (classical and pop), chatting on discord, gaming, etc.
I have tried to find something that would work out for me but my attempt was unsuccessful. I would also like some tips for mic settings on the headset. Thanks in advance.

I use this configuration for music, it's the best sound quality I've gotten, the bass feels great and the vibration is not annoying. To get the best sound quality to enjoy your music to the fullest, the volume dial on your headphones should be set to maximum and the volume on your music player (e.g. Youtube Music or Spotify) should be set to the minimum possible. The volume of windows can be varied as usual. With these settings, the sound quality for music is outstanding.
THX Spatial Audio
31Hz = +12
63Hz = +5
125Hz = +7
250Hz = +9
500Hz = +2
1kHz = -1
2 kHz = +1
4kHz = +4
8kHz = +7
16kHz = +12
Hapatic Intensity: LOW (depending on the song you can use it in MID)
Bass Boot: ON 100
Sound Normalization: Off
Voice Clarity: Off
For me the quality of the microphone is not essential but doing some tests I got these settings that I like. You must keep in mind that these settings depend on your voice so you will have to try your own settings.
31Hz = 0
63Hz = +2
125Hz = +1
250Hz = -1
500Hz = +2
1kHz = +3
2 kHz = +1
4kHz = +2
8kHz = +3
16kHz = +5
The above audio settings are not recommended for FPS games where you need to hear footsteps to know the position of the enemy. For those games I recommend you to create another profile and select STEREO and the default settings for games, works perfect for me. In some games you have the THX competitive mode option, I don't like it but you can try it.
I hope it helps, when you try the configuration could you please let me know what you think of it.

Woah, thank you very much. I appreciate the detailed guide and the configurations work great. This really helped me out and I finally feel like I'm using the headset to it's fullest.
