Equalizer Settings

Hey guys!!

I was wondering if anyone knows a good equalizer set up. I'm looking for something more bass heavy with good Audio quality as well.

Thanks!!

Those settings have to do with the type of music we are listening, and our personal taste. These are my settings (after 10 days of ownership)

Don't forget it's also based on where the music is being played... i.e. Satellite vs. Steaming

One good tid-bit of info for those using Spotify, most ppl only listen to music in "regular mode", but you can go into settings and set your music to play at different qualities other than the default.

Agreed. Correct EQ settings will make poor quality streams (BT, Radio, Satellite) sound worse and great quality files (flac/CD) sound much better.

This is how you configure your EQ.

This works well for all music. If you want a little more bass turn it up at the previous level.

I do not like those settings for my albums, but try them out and adjust accordingly.

I found that setting to be overly tinny in the high side and boomy on the low end. Kinda muddied up the mid range with it.
