Customize EQ Settings For Your Hearing Profile

A non-clinical hearing test to help you customize your audio profile for music.

Hearwise plays short tones across the selected frequency range, tests each ear independently, and turns your responses into a visual hearing profile and a conservative EQ starting point.

Safety first. Start quietly. Never raise the level to chase a tone. Stop for pain, dizziness, or tinnitus. This is not a hearing diagnosis.

Suggested FxSound EQ

Keep Bass Boost, Clarity, Ambience, and Dynamic Boost off initially. Set output/preamp around -3 dB if available.

Compare, don’t commit. Listen to familiar speech and music with bypass on and off. Reduce a band if treble sounds sharp, hissy, or fatiguing.
