How to set the equalizer on TV?

Equalizer Windows 7 and 10

To get to the settings you're looking for and enable the equalizer in Windows:

We go along the path “Start/Control Panel/Hardware and Sound/Sound”. A window with connected audio devices will appear on the screen. We are interested in the “Speakers” item - double-click on it.
In the “Properties” menu that opens, select the “Enhancements” tab (in the screenshot “Enhancements”). Check the box next to the “Equalizer” parameter and click on “MoreSetting”.
The user gets a simple equalizer at his disposal. It also comes with preset configuration profiles.

Using the same principle, you can open the equalizer in Windows 10. Its appearance is no different from the above panel on the “seven”.

Viper4Android

This equalizer is a real living legend among all Android equalizers. Ever since Android 2.3, this application has delighted users with a truly large amount of functionality and convenient operation. Like Wavelet, you can enable audio to be applied to the entire system, and it automatically switches profiles. In addition, the application has a huge amount of functionality, starting with a simple 10-band equalizer, and ending with a convolver (a function that allows you to apply pulses) and spectrum expansion (raising the bitrate with algorithms). Unfortunately, the main developers abandoned their creation a long time ago, so now on the latest versions of Android you have to be content with somehow working mods from enthusiasts.

Features of Viper4Android:

a large amount of functionality, including atypical ones;
the settings apply to the entire system.

JamesDSP

JamesDSP is conceived as a more modern and efficient analogue of Viper4Android. Essentially, this equalizer has almost the same functionality, with the exception of a few functions, such as spectrum expansion. At the same time, some of them are implemented better technically and their use causes less distortion of the audio stream in the end.

Features of JamesDSP:

normal operation on the latest versions of Android;
better implementation of functions than V4A.

Adjusting the sound using standard “tens” tools

Windows has standard equalizers that adjust the sound for the entire system as a whole. Their disadvantage is poor functionality and only 10 bands. However, even this will be enough for a novice user to adjust the sound.

Setting up speakers in the Properties window

One of the standard equalizers can be found in your speaker settings. Follow the instructions:

On the right side of the “Taskbar” (Windows tray) we find an icon in the form of a loudspeaker to the left of the time and date. Its name is “Speakers”. We click on it with the right mouse button. In a small menu on a dark background, select the second option “Open sound settings”.

To open the equalizer itself for manual adjustment, click on the button with three dots located to the right of the drop-down menu. Here you can lower or raise the sliders on the vertical bars to adjust the sound. Before setting up, play the audio file.

Move the sliders to adjust the sound quality of the audio file
We move the sliders a little at a time and carefully observe the changes in the sound. You shouldn’t immediately raise it to the maximum or lower it to the minimum. If you want to make bass instruments sound more powerful, raise the frequency to 80 Hertz. To more clearly distinguish the words in a song, raise the sliders on the 2000 – 4000 Hertz bands. If you raise the areas from 60 to 100, the drums in the songs will sound louder.
In this window we can enable the same settings for a specific genre of music. When you choose a style, the sliders will immediately take the desired position.

The same list of music genres is available in a small window for quickly adjusting the equalizer to a specific style
After making all changes, click on “Save”, and then on “Apply” and OK in “Properties”.
If the changes made are not suitable, click on the “Reset” button.

Setting the equalizer on the car radio

Equalizer - sound settings. If you have a simple budget radio, then it looks something like this:

Setting up the equalizer in your car starts with adjusting the balance between the front and rear speakers so that the front speakers predominate.
Adjust the correct balance between the left and right speakers, otherwise the sound will “go away” to the side.
On devices with a built-in high-pass filter, it is better to activate it: “cut off” the sound below 100-125 Hz. This will help you get a clearer sound without unpleasant wheezing.

Differences between HDMI ARC and eARC

Most TVs pre-compress the audio signal before it is sent over HDMI cables. eARC (Enhanced Audio Return Channel) allows you to transmit the original audio signal in full resolution through an HDMI cable and reproduce better sound without compromising quality. eARC is a feature implemented in the latest HDMI 2.1 specification. The biggest benefit is that it greatly improves throughput and speed. This allows you to stream high-quality audio from your TV to your soundbar or A/V receiver and is compatible with Dolby Atmos and DTS high-bitrate formats.

eARC is also often referred to as Next Generation ARC. It demonstrates support for higher bandwidth and faster speeds. This way, you can stream higher quality audio from your HDTV to your soundbar or audio receiver.

Shelving EQ

Shelving EQ dampens or boosts frequencies above or below specified cutoff points. There are 2 types of shelving equalizers - high-frequency and low-frequency. Some fully parametric equalizers have a feature that allows you to switch the high-pass and low-pass controls into high-cut filter mode.

The low-cut filter passes all frequencies below the one we have selected, muting everything above. The high-pass filter does the opposite - it passes everything above the specified frequency, muting everything below.

Differences between HDMI ARC and eARC

High data rate and object-oriented up to 192 kHz, 23-bit

(eg Dolby Atmos, DTS:X)

eARC-enabled models

TVs: UHD TU7000 and later models.
Soundbar: Q70T and later models.
Audio Format: Supports the latest high-bitrate audio formats, including DTS Master, DTS:X, Dolby TrueHD, Dolby Atmos and more.

You must use an HDMI cable that supports eARC. (HEAC or HEC)
Anynet+ (HDMI-CEC) must be enabled on your TV.
If you use a non-certified cable, an error may occur.

Will a soundbar really improve the sound quality over TV speakers?

Easy answer: yes! The speakers built into TVs today are better than those they had 5 years ago. However, they still leave much to be desired. Soundbars provide enhanced sound, which is one of the main reasons for their popularity.

Cheaper than traditional surround sound and convenient, soundbars go beyond your TV's capabilities to deliver quality sound. Often simple in style, they can be mounted on a wall or installed in an entertainment center without taking up much space.

You can invest in an expensive home theater if you want to seriously upgrade your cinematic experience. However, a soundbar provides many of the same benefits without breaking the bank. If you decide to upgrade to a full home theater system, the highest-end sound bars often play an important role in these setups as well.
