Equalizers are difficult for everyone (even audio experts)because of the inherent nature of what they deal with.
There are guides on the net that tell what they mean in laymen's terms (like, this is the bassier side or treble side, etc)
Generally, you should just play around with them until you find something you like (everyone's hearing is different).
And as far as trying to get what the artist intended, it's difficult because you aren't just playing a recording "as is".
You are playing it through whatever "equipment" you have (soundcards, speakers, etc.) which might not accurately reproduce the way the sound(s)
was recorded.
