A whole new way to enjoy music!

SoundBest Player is the only music player with the ability to match your hearing range.

■ Personalized Sound Technology (Auto Fitting Mode)

AF mode, or Auto Fitting Mode, is a core technology of SoundBest Player.

AF mode is a personalized sound solution that extracts the users hearing curve and converts it into an optimal equalizer setting value. AF mode matches the sound output levels to a persons hearing allowing them to listen to music more comfortably when applied.

■ Personal Hearing Curve
Every individual experiences a different range of hearing that can be represented by various curves.

It is common for cases of human hearing to be higher or lower than the average level of certain frequency bands.

For example, presbycusis, or the slow loss of hearing with age, causes elderly people to loose their ability to hear high frequency sounds, however, the ability to hear the thick sounds in low frequency bands may be unaffected. Also, people who listen to music at very high volumes can suffer from noise-induced hearing loss. In this case, there are some individuals who loose their ability to hear some sections of low frequency bands.

■ How SoundBest Player AF Mode Works

Here are the steps for how to extract your hearing curve with SoundBest Player:
First, move to a quiet place and plug in your earphones to use for the test.
Make sure that your earphones are in each ear correctly and start the SoundBest app.
Select the middle icon on the icon toolbar for the AF equalizer test.
Once the test begins, tap the OK button on the screen every time you hear the test tone.

The test takes about 90 seconds. Once the test is complete, the hearing curve of the left and right ear will be extracted.

Your extracted personal hearing curve is then converted into an optimized equalizer curve.

Select “Preview” to compare the quality of sound before and after the equalizer curve is applied. By turning the optimized sound “On” and “Off” you will be able to preview your custom AF settings right in SoundBest Player.

Finally, click “Save” to save your personalized AF mode as a preset.
