  • Navigate to the 'Sound' or 'Audio' settings menu.
  • Locate the 'Equalizer' or 'EQ' option.
  • Toggle the EQ feature to 'On' if it is not already enabled.

Customizing EQ Settings

Once the EQ feature is enabled, you can customize the sound profile to suit your preferences. The Bose app provides several preset options and a custom setting for detailed adjustments.

Using Preset EQ Profiles

Choose from popular preset profiles such as 'Bass Boost,' 'Treble Boost,' or 'Vocal.' Tap on your preferred profile to activate it immediately.

Creating a Custom EQ Profile

To fine-tune your sound, select the 'Custom' option within the EQ menu. Adjust the sliders for bass, midrange, and treble to your liking. Save your settings for quick access in the future.

Using EQ Features During Listening

With the EQ enabled and customized, your headphones will automatically apply these settings during playback. You can switch profiles at any time through the app to adapt to different music genres or environments.

Troubleshooting and Tips
