Each system and user are different; no one size fits all!
That curve would sound horrible with the Buds+ if your hearing is still good and even if it wasn't.

When you change a slider it alters not just those frequencies between it and the adjacent sliders but others down the line. Try to start at zero and pull down offending ranges, then jack up the volumn as needed. Boost others as needed but try to keep the slider curve smooth like a sign wave as uneven increases can really screw up the sound.

On my Denon flagship reciever/sound system no equalizer was needed; I dial in the subwoofer cutoff and then level as needed. That was all other than changing the music mode as needed, sometimes going to straight 2 speaker stereo.

The 10+/ Buds+ are not near as well balanced as the former sound system and need heavy equalization to bring them up to par.
One EQ profile will not fit all music; on Poweramp I have over a dozen. It allows you set a profile per song, album, playlist.
It takes a lot of time and trouble to set up a EQ profile(s) for a large music collection. My collection goes back to the 30's swing to modern R&R, each has different requirements to maximize its sound.
