If there was a place they were "supposed to" be set, there wouldn't be any need for a knob. The adjustment is there because things like the size and shape of your room, where the speakers are placed and where you're sitting, and even the volume you listen at, all have effects on the treble / bass balance. So, set them wherever they sound good to you. Answer from squirrelpotpie on reddit.com

Does treble make bass louder?
Treble and bass are separate frequency ranges, so boosting the treble won't directly make the bass louder. However, the relative balance between bass and treble can affect how we perceive the overall sound. For example, if the treble is too prominent relative to the bass, it can make the bass seem quieter or less impactful by comparison. Conversely, if the bass is too overpowering, it can make the treble seem dull or muffled. The key is to find a balance between bass and treble that allows both frequency ranges to shine without overpowering each other.

What should bass and treble be set at?
The ideal bass and treble settings will vary depending on factors like the genre of music, your personal preferences, and the capabilities of your audio setup. As a general rule, aim for a balanced sound with a slight emphasis on the frequencies that are most important for your listening preferences. For example, if you enjoy bass-heavy genres like hip-hop or EDM, you may want to start with a slight boost in the bass frequencies around 60-100 Hz. If you prefer a brighter, more detailed sound, you may want to slightly emphasize the treble frequencies around 8-10 kHz. The key is to make small, i

Should treble always be higher than bass?
As with the previous question, there's no one-size-fits-all answer to whether treble should always be higher than bass. It all depends on the specific music, your personal preferences, and the capabilities of your audio setup. In some cases, slightly emphasizing the treble frequencies can add clarity, detail, and airiness to the sound. However, too much treble boost can lead to a harsh, fatiguing sound that's uncomfortable to listen to over long periods of time. As a general rule, aim for a balanced sound with a slight emphasis on the frequencies that are most important for the genre and style

May 4, 2022 -

I just got my first set of good speakers (Edifier R2000DB, I know it’s not as good as some of you guys’ but there literally the best things I have ever heard) and it lets me set the treble and bass, I mostly listen to 90s/early 2000s rap but I also listen to a bit of “white boy music” (everlast and kid rock). I don’t know what to set treble and bass to, can anyone help? Thanks heaps in advance.

Answer (1 of 15): Honestly. If you have a good stock system. Or if you have a actual system. I’d put bass on max for a stock system. And if you have a system then I’d say +3 for comp subs, and +5 for subs. Just to start out. If you want more bass add more bass.
