More bass on Bluetooth headphones (Android)

If your Bluetooth headphones sound thin on Android, a few careful steps usually help more than turning every bass slider to the maximum.

1. Check the basics first

2. Boost bass with headroom

Raising low frequencies also raises the peak level, which can cause clipping and a distorted, “farting” sound. A good approach is a moderate boost around 60–110 Hz together with a slightly lower overall level. Our article Bass boost without distortion explains why.

How AUREL helps

Honest limits

AUREL works on the phone's audio before it is sent to the headphones. It cannot make small drivers produce bass they physically cannot, and in system-wide mode it only affects apps the phone allows (some, including YouTube, are not affected). The built-in player always works.
