I run my amp and basses totally flat as a rule. I have a simple set up where my basses give me the tone I want, my GK amps just make it louder and if there's any part of my bass I can't hear then I use the eq on my amps to compensate.
However occasionally I'll adjust the treble and bass onboard eq to compliment a specific style of music I'm playing (more bass and less treble for ska, more mids for slap) although within small limits because otherwise it can mean adjusting the gain controls on my mixer.
I sold my Eden WT800 because it didn't suit the Smiths very well but the WT800 and WT400 amps sound very different to me. The WT400 sounds louder and flatter.
