User Reviews

Overall, users praise eq8 for delivering high-quality sound with a powerful, highly parametric EQ and a sleek UI. It’s seen as incredibly useful and effective, especially on YouTube, with noticeable bass and sound improvements. However, reliability is a recurring issue: in several reviews it did nothing or had no effect. Compatibility problems are even more prominent: it can mute or block audio on many non-YouTube sites and DRM-restricted services, and some sites (radio, Spotify, Bandcamp) require disabling to listen. Some users also want a compressor and additional HPF options.

Pros

Excellent high-quality sound with powerful parametric EQ
Highly configurable with true parametric control and infinite adjustability
Modern, professional UI/UX and precise controls
Generally useful and works well across sites, especially YouTube
Great bass response / sound improvement on some setups

Cons

Occasional no-effect or reliability issues where the extension does not work
Blocks or silences audio on many non-YouTube sites, indicating broad site-compatibility problems
Compatibility with DRM-restricted sites (Disney+, Bandcamp issues) requiring disabling or workaround
Inconsistent site support (works on YouTube but not on radio/Spotify)

Recent reviews

Works perfectly. Would be nice if we could set it to reset to a certain profile on new tabs though.

Is eq8 Safe?

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.

eq8 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 Add-ons Store, 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.

eq8 is probably trust-worthy. Prefer other publishers if available. Exercise caution when installing this add-on.
