What do the Apple Music EQ settings do?
EQ adjusts the frequencies of sound—or more precisely, of audio signals at particular frequencies, relative to other frequencies. A person with fairly pristine ears has a hearing range of from 20Hz to 20kHz (20,000Hz), with bass residing in the lower frequencies and treble tones at the higher end of the range.
What are the best EQ settings for music?
Try dialing in the 500 to 1,000Hz range. If you want to hear the sparkling highs of music across genres, you should focus your efforts on the 5,000 to 10,000Hz range. It may be tempting to crank up the decibel ranges you want, but sometimes, you need to use more finesse to get the best audio equalizer settings.
What do the numbers on EQ settings mean?
EQ frequency controls use these numbers to describe the tonal range of the audio spectrum and allow us to find specific frequencies and make adjustments to them. Low frequencies like 40 Hz and 100 Hz describe lower tones. High frequencies like 5 kHz and 10 kHs describe higher tones.
