I have the Earfun Free Pro 2 - how do I apply the EQ settings from Oluv?

Submitted by Geerah t3_123v4ka in headphones

I was encouraged to get these earbuds and tune them based on Oluv's tunings from his Patreon. I found the posts with the files and downloaded them a while back, before my sub ran out, but I can't figure out what to do with them. Some people say "use Wavelet" but I don't know how. Can anyone provide a step-by-step process of what I need to do to get these earbuds in tune with Oluv's settings?

The only advice I've found on this feels very incomplete for people who aren't already enthusiasts. I feel like I'm being gated as a newbie who just wanted good earbuds.

You obviously knew you needed to support the patreon to get the tuning sorted out, but you didn't take care of it while you were a patreon of his?

I think you know the answer to the question.

I couldn't figure it out the entire time I was subbed. Like I said, I found the files, but never how to actually use any of it. I feel like I have two or three pieces to a ten piece puzzle.

You can't use Wavelet, you have to use AirReps156X. Download and open the app, select the Free Pro 2 and connect, then go to "equalizer". Enter the values, then tap "save data". Out of the box, the Free Pro 2 doesn't use its "base" frequency response, it uses an EQ that Earfun applied (I assume via the same app), which basically turns the Free Pro 2 into a generic chifi TWS U-shape signature. What Oluv's method essentially does is delete Earfun's EQ, and apply his own EQ to the Free Pro 2's "base" FR (which is absolutely terrible btw). You can change the EQ after you apply it, but I'm pretty sure you can't revert to Earfun's original EQ; it's deleted permanently. The app is also a pain to use, it feels like a half-finished product. Honestly I'd hesitate to recommend it just because of how convoluted the process can be.
