I don't know what are you arguing for , you've already made your point clear in your previous post ... I personaly use lots of mids for my tones now (both lead and rhythm) , but back in time when all I used to play was stuff like pantera I used to put the mids a little below 5 (with bands !) and it sounded good.

And tuning lower does makes your sound heavier , and that's why most death/new metal bands do it ... Tune low, and play a Led Zeppelin and it will sound heavy ! :rolleyes:

If heaviness comes from making the guitar,bass,drums work as a team , could we conclude then that slow rock bands sound heavy , or they don't play as teams ? :confused:
