There's a slicker solution than Soundflower, but it's far from free - Audio Hijack - which I use to tame the audio on several machines here, for slightly different purposes. You could do this with Soundflower & a graphic EQ too, or potentially with eqMac2 - for free.

Potentially what you could do if you have access to a smart phone is download a free Spectrum Analyser & find a white noise sample or generator online* then use the EQ to flatten the perceived EQ curve as the phone hears it. You still need ears, or an analyser, but the investment could become 'merely time' rather than actual cost. I wrote this before checking all the proposed apps in the OP my issue with these kind of things usually is that I tend to avoid the "we can do it all for you" apps, like Boom & Bongiovi because I always think, "How can you do all that for me? You can't hear my speakers!".ĮqMac2 does look like a simpler version of what I'm already doing on the first machine example below. You can set up your EQ or whatever as a global or on a per-app basis, making it very flexible.

Since writing this, Rogue Amoeba have released a simpler & cheaper app specifically to tailor output rather than provide full internal audio routing & recording - SoundSource. The huge difference between the so called "optimized for this machine" settings offered by Boom and Bongiovi DPS is testament to the "opinions differ" thing as well. Note that I am aware of "perceived sound quality" as pretty much opinion based, therefore I am not asking about "the best setting" but about the proper approach to this problem in general. How do I approach speaker correction for this machine properly? Are there equalizer presets to start from? Settings perhaps to download somewhere or to copy along the sliders of the band?Ĭan these speakers or their response curve really be calibrated (as the setup from one of the software titles seem to suggest) Other software solutions to consider altogether? Since I am lacking even the right terminology for this kind of task: On top of it the results on this machine are not in that way 'better' as I remember it (and re-tested with an older version just now) from older machines.
But that piece of software is unreliable in operation, costs money, and offers a range of other features I do not want or need, and it is even accused of possibly damaging your audio hardware if misused. (Examples would be Boom3D, Hear, eqMac2, Bongiovi DPS…) With the smallest settings I found Boom quite smooth.
On older machines I previously used a complicated setup involving SoundFlower and AULabs equalizer settings to correct for some of the perceived deficiencies.īesides the cumbersome setup of this surely outdated solution: On these newer machines I cannot arrive at a satisfactory result.īut I remembered a few "audio optimizers" offered some speaker correction presets for these machines. Yet they seem to me part of the wrong side in the loudness war. These are small speakers and they are usually judged as quite good for their size. It is like there is too much bass from where the spectrum starts and then as if there are some kind of gaps in the spectrum where middles and highs are somehow absent or underdeveloped.

On a MacBook Pro 15inch Retina I find the sound output from the internal speakers to be quite 'strange'.
