Annoying audio clipping

[AKG-audio]

If I'm listening to a bass-heavy song the bass drowns out all the other frequencies entirely. I have a Samsung device (S24U) and apparently this is normal for Samsung. I'm supposed to go into the UHQ upscaler and enable bit upscaling only according to the troubleshooting page but the UHQ upscaler is only available for wired devices... I bought the new Galaxy Buds3 Pro and I had the same issue with the 2 Pros. So I know its something with my phone but I don't think the UHQ setting would stay because it grays out when a wired device is unplugged. Any advice?

I'm not familiar with the audio settings in OneUI specifically so I can't comment too much on that. But if the bass is too much using any pair of headphones I'd start digging in your system settings. For example the equalizer in Sound Assistant.

The title mentions audio clipping but I'm not sure if it's the issue you describe. Anyhow, if clipping happens in Wavelet, you should enable the limiter, specifically the automatic post-gain setting.
