Technical parameters of the Fairbuds EQ profiles

Hi, before contacting support I wanted to try my chances here.

Does anyone, perchance, know the technical parameters of the Fairbuds (v67) EQ profiles (i.e. frequencies, Q-values, gain)? There is a noticeable change in the audio that I cannot match by ear, even when matching volume across all the frequencies.

It would really help me tune them. I already made great progress, but I cannot fine-tune it without the parameters, as the RTINGS frequency response curve – which I use as a base for optimising the parameters – uses the Main preset, where the built-in EQ cannot be tuned.

This is my best guess so far. Note that this is a visualisation of how to return to Main from Studio (since this is the only way to measure by ear and it’s more useful as a sound signature in AutoEq), so the Studio preset itself is inverted.

Parameters:

Frequency [Hz] Gain [dB] Q
550 3.7 0.5
2900 -5 1
6500 9 3

Btw, if you want to see the fruits of my labour, you can take a look at the presets I generated with AutoEq using this data: https://github.com/jurf/fairbuds

You can try them easily using the web app (since the official app is currently broken): https://jurf.github.io/fairbuds/

Note that it requires the Web Bluetooth API, which is currently mostly only supported by Chromium-based browsers. On Linux, you might also need to enable chrome://flags/#enable-web-bluetooth.
