Truthear x Crinacle Zero RED has 22 published AutoEQ corrections, from 14 measurement rigs across 2 variants of the model, and this page carries every one of them. Below is the curve, the exact parametric filters behind it, and a one-click preset for EQBase. macOS has no system-wide equalizer of its own, so applying a correction to everything your Mac plays, rather than inside a single player, needs an app that sits on the system audio path.
Each measurement below carries four things: the correction curve, its parametric filters, the same filters as copy-paste text in AutoEQ's format (which Equalizer APO and Peace, REW and most desktop parametric equalizers import, and which EQBase's own Expert EQ reads and writes), and EQBase's ten-band fit of that correction. The ten-band figures are what the downloadable preset applies, so what you hear matches what is written here. AutoEQ publishes its own ten-band file on the same grid, fitted to the raw measurement rather than to these filters, so the two agree closely through the midrange and can differ at the extremes.

What this correction changes
The largest boost is +1.6 dB at treble (8 kHz), and the largest cut is −1.7 dB at top octave (16 kHz). Total swing across the ten bands is 3.3 dB. Across the three thirds of the band the average movement stays under a decibel, so this is a fine-detail correction rather than a tonal rebalance.
The 22 published measurements on this page, from 14 rigs, do not agree with each other, and the size of the disagreement is worth knowing before picking one. They differ most at top octave (16 kHz), where the ten-band figures span 7.5 dB, and least at midrange (1 kHz), where they span 1.9 dB. A spread that wide usually means the rigs disagree about the seal or the coupler rather than about the headphone, so prefer the measurement whose conditions match how you actually wear them.
Applying this on a Mac
The Truthear x Crinacle Zero RED is an in-ear monitor, and its bass depends far more on the seal than on anything in this correction. A tip that does not seal loses the low bass outright, and no amount of boost puts it back. If the bottom end still sounds missing after applying this, change tips and re-seat them before deciding the curve is wrong.
In-ears are sensitive enough that a Mac's own output drives them without help, so the correction is doing all of the work here rather than sharing it with an amplifier.
In EQBase the fastest route skips this page entirely: open the Headphones pane, search for your model, and apply the correction. The Truthear x Crinacle Zero RED is in the built-in catalog along with 8,665 other models. The preset above exists for people who want to see the numbers first, or who want a specific measurement rather than the default one.
Either way the correction applies to every app at once, and the free tier carries it with no time limit. The Truthear x Crinacle Zero RED preset above sets the ten-band curve, which is what the free tier applies, so nothing on this page is behind a purchase.
Common questions
Do these EQ settings work on any Mac app?
Yes, if the equalizer runs on system audio rather than inside one player. EQBase processes everything the Mac plays, so the same correction applies to Spotify, Safari, YouTube, games and calls. The Music app's own equalizer only affects Music.
Where do the Truthear x Crinacle Zero RED numbers come from?
From 22 published AutoEQ measurements of the Truthear x Crinacle Zero RED, made by oratory1990, crinacle, Rtings, Super Review, Harpo, Filk, Fahryst, Jaytiss, Kazi, ToneDeafMonk, DHRME, Auriculares Argentina, freeryder05 and Bakkwatan. Each one is a real frequency-response measurement compared against a target curve, and each produces its own set of filters. They are all on this page rather than averaged together, because a measurement belongs to the person who made it. The 2 variants (bass+ nozzle, standard) are measured separately and corrected separately.
Why is the Truthear x Crinacle Zero RED preamp negative?
The Truthear x Crinacle Zero RED correction needs −2.1 dB of headroom on its default measurement, so the preset pulls the signal down by that much before the boosts are applied. Boosting a signal that is already near full scale would clip it, and the negative preamp is what buys the room. Skip it and loud passages distort. That is a small figure, meaning this correction is mostly cuts rather than boosts, so it costs very little loudness.
Can I use these filters in a different equalizer?
Yes. The filter table is a standard parametric list: type, frequency, gain and Q. Any parametric equalizer that accepts those four values per band will take them, on any platform. The one-click preset is only a shortcut for EQBase users.
