Great Budget Headphones
The Superlux HD681 is a budget-friendly pair of headphones that’s great for both gaming and jamming out to music. It’s gotten a ton of positive reviews on YouTube and is a favorite among many reviewers. In this post, I’ll share my equalizer settings for these headphones!
What are Equalizer APO and Peace Equalizer
2 programs are needed:
Equalizer APO is a parametric equalizer for Windows that operates as an Audio Processing Object (APO). It allows users to adjust audio frequencies in real-time, providing a way to enhance sound quality and tailor audio output to personal preferences. It supports various audio formats and can be used with any audio device on the system.
Peace Equalizer is a user interface for Equalizer APO that simplifies its use. It provides a more accessible graphical interface, making it easier for users to adjust settings, manage presets, and visualize audio changes. Peace offers features like a 31-band equalizer, various filters, and the ability to save and load configurations, enhancing the overall user experience with Equalizer APO.

I keep my EQ settings simple, making just a few small adjustments while leaving everything else at the default values:
- Pre Amplifying: -2.5
- Frequency 4000: -4
- Frequency 8000: -4
