  • Jeyho 3 years ago Reply Many thanks for that article, especially for the Wavelet settings. One question regarding those: Why do you move the channel balance towards the left, which is the top (‘ear’) speaker? To me it seems like one of the reasons for the Pixel 7’s poor audio quality is the fact that the top speaker is at least as loud as the bottom one. This is different with e.g. the Pixel 3a, where the top speaker is just loud enough to contribute to a reasonable stereo effect, but the bottom speaker, which seems to be of better quality, is louder. Jeyho 3 years ago Reply Ah, maybe you’ve been using the Pixel 7 Pro? I’ve read somewhere that the Pro’s default channel balance is the other way round.
