Default Setup concepts, questions, approaches

Just like the title states...

Does getting the strings too low both the nut and saddle effect tone or just volume? I've tried two approaches... Both with about .005 of relief

1) low nut slots .010e - .015E and .065e - .080E at the saddle. The low nut slots to aid in less fatigue during barring in the first and second positions.

2) moderate nut slots .015e - .025E and .055e - .070E at the saddle. This setup seems to play even.... Even up the neck.

What do y'all use for setup specs and why? Are there tone and volume issues from some?
