Anker SoundCore Boom 2 EQ settings

Here you will find different EQs I created for the Boom 2. They are based on measurements but I had to readjust them by ear afterwards to make them sound more similar to the real speaker. These settings are meant to be used without BassUp but you ca...

Still tweaking

I finally need to keep you updated, as I had several setbacks recently which somehow made me lose motivation to post something. One setback was Earfun who withdrew their cooperation offer for the Free Pro 3. This made me lose a big source of poten...

Soundcore Space One

I want to tell you the story around the recently released and already praised Soundcore Space One headphone.

Initially I was asked for a paid review about this headphone and was sent a sample unit some weeks ago. The sound was so horrid that...

Earfun Free Pro 2 or 3?

Recently I was negotiating with Earfun regarding a tuning for the Free Pro 3 by me. But they just offer the option of a 10-band EQ with the default tuning being already pretty bad, thus I cannot offer anything usable for that model unfortunately. ...

Earfun Free Pro 2 - neutral tuning 6000hz

I finished a neutral tuning for the Free Pro 2 which should offer a similar spectrum to neutrally equalised speakers in a room and should sound similar to my neutral headphone target. They all do not sound exactly the same, but it was close to imp...

Oluv's neutral IEM target - WIP

I was not inactive the last 2 weeks, but too busy to post anything as I had set up my listening solution in the living room again and spent most my time to fine tune my headphone target a bit more. At the same time I tried to achieve a similar res...

Earfun Free Pro 3 - first look

I received my sample of the Free Pro 3 and wanted to share some details with you.

When looking at the images (old Free Pro 2 always to the left) you can see that the new one increased in size slightly. Not only the charging box got larger b...

I haven’t posted any playlist lately because I haven’t listened to a lot of music recently before having finished my final EQ for the HD58X and my preliminary EQ for the Free Pro 2. I was mostly just listening to pink noise or my usual test tr...

Sennheiser HD58X EQ

I had to reupload the video because the recording had some imbalance. My current microphones lost some sensitivity on one side and although I tried to compensate for this, the speaker recording appeared still too far to the left.

Earfun Free Pro 2 - Oluv’s neutral target WIP

Like mentioned before I created this setting quickly before leaving for holidays to have some listening solution on the go. It was just a rough first adjustment to achieve a sound which was closer to the target I managed for the HD58X. As for an I...

Sennheiser HD58X - Oluv's neutral target EQ

Here you can find my recent EQ for the Sennheiser HD58X with more or less fresh pads. I was using this headphone intensively since I got it in May, thus it should work for brand new units quite well. This EQ should represent "true neutral" sound w...

Nubert X3000 - my new soundsettings

I was not satisfied with my previous settings and tried to improve them based on the sound I was hearing from the KH80. I think my new settings sound quite a bit more neutral, although I was not able to make the bass even flatter due to lack of fu...

Measuring madness

I had ordered a new UMIK-1 microphone but noticed that it measures differently to my old one despite using the included calibration file. Therefore I also bought a SoundID from Sonarworks which again deviates from the others.
