Today I want to talk about a program that is a must in my opinion and that is equalizerAPO, which is essentially is an EQ at the driver level and will EQ through to your games and all your music (except some certain programs that bypass the drivers). The benefits of this program is that you can fix that bass roll off and you can also fix up the impedance mismatch (that usually happens around 7khz).

Another benefit is that you can give your sound an artificial volume boost (though be careful of clipping) and also boost footsteps etc. for competitive FPS.

The second half of the tutorial is me going through a how to on how to use ROOM EQ which is a GUI program that can output EQ settings for your headphones so you can put them into Equalizer APO. Below is a timetable of the events.
