First I’d like to thank Audeze for their wonderful products and this very plug-in, it made iSine20 my favorite non-custom iem to date. As a ciem person myself, I used to the “in your face” or “center of brain” type of listening, therefore had a hard time adapt to the pair of miniature loudspeakers striped to my head. But darn, ain’t I pleased!
The DSP (via Foobar2000 > Chord Hugo) really helped me to rediscover the music I loved. However the lack of support for Android devices is really destroying this great iem, I kept noticing the wild timbre to the point I have to stop listening music on my phone.
Until, I recently stumbled upon an EQ app called Equalizer Pro (Free) that affects Android system wide, and with no root required, so I’d like to share it with my fellow Android users. It only has 10 bands so it’s far from perfect, but every sound on my phone is EQed. Here is my attempt to mimic Reveal DSP’s iSine20 setting, with my limited experience:
All my music has Replay Gain + Peak, and is played with Foobar2000 Mobile. So you may want to have a -3.0 dB preamp, or adjust the above EQ accordingly.
Now we know it’s possible to achieve system wide EQ on Android without root, hopefully Audeze will release an official app to restore its headphones to their deserved glory on Android.
