Bose QuietComfort II EQ settings for Mac
Bose QuietComfort II is an in-ear headphone. This measured profile applies 10 parametric bands with a -2.2 dB preamp to bring it toward the Harman target. Low end: it reins in what the measurement shows is too much; treble: it adds back what the measurement shows is missing. Biggest single move: -5.2 dB at 105 Hz (Low shelf).
