From Home menu, select Settings → Music Settings → Equalizer → desired equalizer type.

Type	Description

Heavy	Emphasizes high and low ranges for a powerful sound.
Pop	Stresses the middle range audio, ideal for vocals.
Jazz	Emphasizes high and low ranges for a lively sound.
Unique	Emphasizes high and low ranges, so that even soft sounds can be heard easily.
Custom 1	User-customizable sound settings for which you can adjust each frequency range individually.
Custom 2

Note:

If your personal settings saved as Custom 1 and Custom 2 seem to produce a

different volume level than the other settings, you may have to adjust the volume

manually to compensate.
The Equalizer setting is not applied while playing a video or FM radio.
The Equalizer setting is not applied to the sound output from the built-in speakers

when Built-in SP Optimizer is set to On. When the output switch is set to

speaker and Built-in SP Optimizer is set to On, Equalizer cannot be selected.

Please select an option after reviewing the solution above.
