The only thing I can tell you is that any of those specs are useless when you start running sound through the unit.
The only time you need to know an eq's slope is when you have a choice between two or more of them. Since its a graphic and you have no choice, it doesn't matter. You just have to listen and do what you can with what you have.
Don't turn this into a math problem. It sucks all the fun out of it. Besides, since our ears are not linear, the math almost never matches the experience of listening.
Plug it in, run signal through it, adjust faders to make the signal sound better. That's it. The rest is just mental masturbation.
