Before we dive into settings, make sure your headphones have a good seal. Closed-back headphones and earbuds with a tight seal are usually the best options. Open-back cans can be among the most natural-sounding, but they aren't the best choice for punchy bass. And while open-fit earbuds like the AirPods 4 and open-ear options like the Shokz OpenFit Pro have much better bass than older models, they still aren't the best place to start. If you use over-ear headphones, make sure the cups are comfortably covering your ears.
