In my opinion, equalization should be at the system level and out of the individual apps' hands. ---

> In my opinion, equalization should be at the system level and out of the individual apps' hands. Why would you want that?  Just curious.  When I'm listening to a CD that has too much bass or could use a little more clarity I don't want to be changing my global phone EQ.  Most player apps come with an EQ for this reason.  Even within Plex, just because I want to make a CD sound better with my current earbuds doesn't mean I want to change the EQ of movies and everything else.   ---

On Android : Poweramp, Blackplayer and many more … even Google Music its own equalizer ! ---

So does Spotify on both Android and IOS. I find it hard to believe that agregjones does’t know this. Plex users have been asking for a EQ for six years, as far as I know, nothing yet. ☹ ---

IOS definitely needs an EQ, as there’s no system-level option. ---

Early 2021 clean-up: duplicate > [@\[Feature Request\] Adjustable Equalizer built into Plex so you can adjust sound on any device and any audio/video file](https://forums.plex.tv/t/feature-request-adjustable-equalizer-built-into-plex-so-you-can-adjust-sound-on-any-device-and-any-audio-video-file/319375): > > [Feature Request] Adjustable Equalizer built into Plex so you can adjust sound on any device and any audio/video file. Is this possible? If not I will forget about it but trying to get a good equalizer app for every device is impossible and most suck. I would like this mostly for playing my music from various devices and tablets but I think it would also be helpful for the times my audio while watching a video is too low. Thanks for your consideration ---
