User reviews

Users appreciate the Audio Equalizer add-on for its significant improvement in audio quality, variety of presets, and ease of use on platforms like YouTube. However, multiple reviews mention that it frequently breaks video playback on various websites, causing errors and incompatibilities, particularly with mp4 videos and after Firefox updates. Additionally, it lacks per-tab audio controls, forcing users to disable it when not needed, which affects usability. Overall, it is a useful free tool with room for stability and feature improvements.
Pros
  • Enhances audio quality noticeably, especially on YouTube videos and music.
  • Offers multiple audio presets and customization options including sliders and a preamp.
  • Easy to use with useful graphic visualization and good control parameters.
  • Free and lightweight add-on that improves listening experience.
  • Works on multiple sites and generally reliable with audio enhancement.
Cons
  • Breaks video playback on multiple websites including TikTok and some video players, rendering them unusable.
  • Sometimes causes MIME errors with video elements, especially mp4 sources.
  • Not fully compatible with latest Firefox updates and requires frequent disabling to prevent site issues.
  • Lacks per-tab audio equalization, forcing users to enable or disable it globally.
  • Presets are present but can be hard to find or use for some users.

I like it but I really want to be able to adjust ONE tab and leave the rest alone. Because I always forget to turn it off >.<

I use this almost exclusively on YT video, and it works amazingly. I listen to a lot of music on YT video (versus it's actual music service due to a 1.25 speed preference potential autism) and I love this extension on Firefox, while wearing full noise-cancelling headphones. Click your puzzle piece, open the mixer, and try all of the audio presets on your favorite banger. Strangely, the 'Ska' preset seems the fullest, but I love toggling the 'Live' and 'Club' settings. There is a lot to play with, and the differences in audio are so stark. Try 'Classical' on the most un-classical song ever, or try "Live' on Daft Punk. It's fun, new, and free, you free-loading complainer. Of course you can tweak it further with the sliders, I am not well versed in the audio tech, but for a lite add-on, I couldn't be happier.

Работает, не идеально, но хотя бы так, это единственное рабочее расширение Эквалайзер для FF, надо только добавить Preamp

Extension safety

Risk impact
Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Audio Equalizer requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk impact analysis details
  • Critical Allows access to all websites, posing a significant security risk as it can monitor and modify data from any visited site.

Risk likelihood
Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Browser Add-ons, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.

Audio Equalizer has earned a fairly good reputation and likely can be trusted.
