One of the benefits of using AirPods is the ability to adjust the equalizer settings. With adaptive EQ and dynamic EQ adjustments, you can enjoy a high-quality audio experience.

Ensuring Proper Fit With the Ear Tip Fit Test

Ensuring Proper Fit With the Ear Tip Fit Test

The first step to maximizing your AirPods’ sound quality is ensuring a proper fit. You can do that with the Ear Tip Fit Test. AirPods come with several ear tip sizes, and this test will help you select the correct one. 

To perform this test, put the AirPods in your ears. Make sure they are connected to your iPhone. 

Go to Settings > Bluetooth and find your AirPods. Click on the “Info” icon, which looks like an “i” in a blue circle, next to your AirPods, and click on Ear Tip Fit Test. You will need iOS 13.2 or a later version for the test. Click on Continue and then on the blue play button. 

The test will run, and you will see if your current AirPods’ tip size is good. If not, an adjustment will be suggested. 

Adjusting EQ Settings via iOS Music App

You can customize the sound settings and adjust the EQ when listening to music in the Music app on iOS. 

To choose a different EQ mode for your AirPods in Music, go to Settings > Apps > Music > EQ and choose a setting. 

Another thing you can do in Settings > Apps > Music is turn on Sound Check, which will normalize the volume level of your audio while listening to music in the Music app. 

Exploring Audio Quality Settings in Apple Music

Go to Music > Settings > Playback to adjust Apple Music’s audio quality. 

In the streaming quality settings, you can enable lossless audio (if you are signed in as an Apple Music subscriber) if you want to enjoy high-quality audio. You can further switch between High Quality, Lossless, or High Resolution Lossless audio for both live music streaming and downloaded music, depending on your data bandwidth and the audio quality you are aiming for. 

Remember, while lossless audio results in higher audio quality, it will use up more bandwidth. Downloading songs with lossless audio can also take up more space on your phone. Also, lossless audio doesn’t work with all versions of AirPods. 

Enhancing Immersion With Spatial Audio

Did you know that AirPods support spatial audio? That allows you to enjoy an immersive AirPods Pro experience. With spatial audio, you can hear the sound as if it were coming from all directions, sort of like the sound you get in a cinema. 

In Music > Settings > Playback, you can choose from several options for Dolby Atmos spatial audio: Automatic, Always On, and Off.

Using the Best Equalizer Settings

To get the best EQ settings on your AirPods Pro, play around and customize the audio settings. Since everyone’s tastes are different, it’s important to try out different settings until you find the one that you like best. 

In addition to trying different EQ settings in Music, you can also adjust the settings in Music > Settings > Playback, as I already explained, and change the spatial audio settings, for example. You can also use the Sound Enhancer in those settings to adjust the sound quality. 

Conclusion

There are a few ways to get personalized sound settings when listening to music on your iPhone. We hope you enjoyed this AirPods Pro EQ customization guide. Start listening and enjoy high-quality music!
