Tuning information:
My laptop- HP Dv7 Envy with Windows 8.1 (purchaed in late 2012).

 It was to find a natural and neutral balance within the EQ so that no matter what song you’re listening to, you didn’t have to change the EQ back and forth to suit that particular song. I listened to songs that spanned almost the entire spectrum, from pop to hip-hop, soundtrack to rock, and electronica to R&B to find that balance where no song had too much high, too little bass or overwhelming mid. Once again, remember that this is the EQ for my particular songs, headphones and most importantly my taste. I prefer less highs and a more prominent mid and mid bass. If this EQ setting sounds to “middy” for your liking, you now know why. Let me know is these EQ works for you or doesn’t and feel free to post your own EQ settings for others to copy and try.


Beat Audio Setting 

first off, use the Beats Audio EQ, its there for a reason. to get to it, just search for HP beats audio control panel. you may want to add a shortcut on you desktop for easy access. click on equalization under speakers and headphones. now here is where your personal preference takes note, i tuned my eq to best compliment every type of music i listen to (dance, rock, hip-hop, classical, scores, and vocal) depending on what type of music you listen to, you will adjust the raise or lower the Db according to the Hz's. as a rule, the lower the Hz's, the more bass is played and the higher the Hz's, the more vocals/ highs are played. Subsequently, knowing what Hz's affect the notes in a song also helps. 31-62 Hz's are bass. 125-250 bass/mid. 500-KHz are where most vocals are heard. 12-15khz is where most notes to high to clearly hear are played.


Computer Setting.

your computer has a different setting than that of beats audio, as such you may want to address it too. search for sound, click on speakers and headphones and select properties. tone should be 4 bass and 4 treble. now enhancements. they are all off and include bass boost, virtual surround, room correction, and loudness eq. in my opinion, they should all stay off. bass boost adds bass, but severely sacrifices clarity and vocals. virtual surround and room correction don't do much, and loudness eq raises and lowers volume depending on the song playing. it makes one song louder and clearer, then diminishes the next and muffles it. its very inconstant and as such should stay off. as for any questions regarding Shared and Exclusive Mode (in the advanced section of speaker and headphones property) read message 29 for answers.

Itunes setting

If you are like me, you use itunes to listen to music. Subsequently, it also has an eq. first, click on edit and select preferences, then playback. turn on sound enhancer, it helps slightly, and leave it in the middle. now the itunes eq can stay where it is. it does not enhance the music that much to really worry about it, but you can tweak it if you wish, just leave the markers close to 0db and adjust it by 1db or less. also be aware that itunes has a slight eq delay. Update* after using the itunes eq extensively, i just recommend you don't adjust it at all, using two eq's on your computer can lead to undesired effects and be a general headache as you have to adjust one every time you adjust the other. also itunes eq just happens to suck so don't use it when you have the Beats Audio eq instead. Infact, dont adjust any EQ settings for any media player you use; It just makes things to complicated

Final Thoughts

A good music setting does not necessarily make music louder. it makes it clearer, it brings out the vocals while helping all individual instruments shine, instead of clumping them together. when every instrument is heard, every vocal is prominent, bass is complimentary, and they all work together, you have achieved true music. the Beats Audio chip does enhance music as long as your willing to be patient enough to tweak it, and in my opinion, computers with the Beat Audio chip are an excellent advancement in music listening experience. also every question is sent directly to my email so i can respond in a timely manner, if you have a question, just ask.
