We'll show you how to do both by creating your own universal EQ using two free tools, follow along:

EqMac 2 A system wide audio equalizer program for Mac OS X. Improves your Audio Listening on OSX / macOS. Experience Music on your Mac, how it is meant to be. Free Open Source Mac.

Mac OS and its apps don’t ‘overdrive’ the analog audio.

It's important to note that AU Lab must be running in order for the equalizer to have an effect, keeping it running will consume a small amount of CPU resources but it's much less process hungry than some of the third party alternatives available on the market.
