EQ, or equalizer, settings are a very overlooked feature of the iPhone. If you’re not happy with the sound being delivered out of your built-in speakers or even through headphones or a third-party speaker, you can alter it using EQ settings.
There’s no true way to have the perfect EQ settings because everyone’s taste is different, but you can use the settings for either Apple Music or Spotify to customize sound to your liking. The presets adjust frequencies in sound that affect properties like treble and bass, and optimize them for your listening preferences and environment. So yes, adjusting EQ might be able to improve the sound coming out of your inexpensive or low-end speakers.
Adjusting EQ for Apple Music
Spotify Click the install file to finish up. If your download didn't start, try again. Bring your music to mobile and tablet, too. Listening on your phone or tablet. Hi, In my Spotify on my Samsung mobile-phone there is an equalizer. Is there the same option for the Spotify on PC (using WIN 8.1)? I can't find any? The Spotify app on your iPhone or iPad includes an Equalizer which allows you to change how your music (or podcasts) sound. Here is how you can access the Equalizer in Spotify: Get Our Newsletter With Apple Tips and Breaking News.
Please install Equalify Pro on your Windows computer firstly and it will integrate into Spotify.
Since Apple Music is baked into iOS, the settings to change EQ for your Apple Music playback (or just standard iTunes playback) is found in the Settings app.
Tap Settings and scroll down to select Music. Scroll once more to select EQ under Playback.
Apple doesn’t let you fine-tune EQ settings for music playback in the same way Spotify does, so instead you’ll have to choose from one of the presets. (Though on your desktop, you can also customize EQ for each individual iTunes song.) The presets are crafted based on the genre of music best suited for that particular sound arrangement. EQ is off by default, but your choices are:
Acoustic
Bass Booster (makes the booming lows more prominent)
Bass Reducer (makes the booming lows less prominent)
Classical
Dance
Deep
Electronic
Flat (overrides any preset iTunes setting in favor of flat frequencies)
Hip Hop
Jazz
Late Night (turns down typically loud sounds and boosts quiet parts; ideal if you’re at a distance)
Latin
Loudness
Lounge
Piano
Pop
R&B
Rock
Small Speakers
Spoken Word
Treble Booster (makes the highs more prominent)
Treble Reducer (makes the highs less prominent)
Vocal Booster
Adjust Eq On Spotify On Macbook
Tip: Before settling on one that seems most appealing, play one of your favorite songs — something you think largely represents your music collection. Then while the song is playing, start switching through the different EQ settings to get a feel for which one complements the song sound best.
Adjusting EQ for Spotify
To adjust the EQ settings in your Spotify app, tap the Menu icon on the top left. Then tap the small Settings icon next to your name. Choose Playback and finally choose Equalizer.
Spotify features all of the same EQ presets as the iOS Settings except for Late Night. (See above for those options and some explanations.) But unlike Apple’s options, Spotify also includes a visual equalizer that you can drag to your liking.
A word on frequencies: all you really need to know about them is that the lower the frequency, the lower the sound that knob will control. For instance, the 60Hz and 150Hz controls on the left will primarily work the bass, so dragging up will increase the bass sounds and dragging down will decrease. On the other side, the 2.4KHz and 15KHz frequencies surround the treble, or highs.
If you aren’t happy with any of the presets but still want to turn on EQ, once again I recommend playing one of your favorite songs. While it’s playing, start dragging the different frequencies up or down to see what you like best.
