I share the opinion that most EQs sound the same.
Try the VST Plug-In Analyser, it´s free and you see what´s really going on when you set your VST EQ.
What helps me, is to do tests with noise and phase-changed noise. You can eq it against each other with 2 EQs of your choice, you can really get to the point where it´s totally quiet when comparing most eq´s.
Some EQs are not just EQs, they are EQs + X (let X be harmonic distortion or whatever). So you´ve got to take an EQ + a X plugin and you´ll come close.
Same with compressors. What´s printed on the front plate is often not what you get. So check it with the VST Plug-In Analyser....
