    Other iPhone, Spotify EQ and EarPods.

    Hey, I listen to music on Spotify a lot and recently started messing with the built in EQ inside the app. I'm just curious which EQ preset you prefer when using EarPods or AirPods? Do you set your own? No EQ at all? I tend to switch between Rock and Electronic preset.
