💡 Frequently Asked Questions

How does the stereo channel test work?
Click L to play a tone through your left speaker only, R for the right speaker. The real-time waveform visualization shows you exactly which channel is active. Use headphones for the most accurate test.
What does it mean if one channel is quieter?
Channel imbalance can be caused by: dirty headphone jack, damaged cable, speaker driver issues, or software balance settings. Try swapping L/R to isolate the problem.
Can I test surround sound with this tool?
This tool tests stereo (2-channel) audio. For 5.1/7.1 surround testing, each channel pair would need separate testing. Check our frequency sweep tool for multi-speaker calibration.
Is this tool free? Do I need to download anything?
Completely free. No downloads, no sign-up. Works in your browser using Web Audio API. Also works offline as a PWA — add to home screen for instant access.
What headphones do you recommend for accurate stereo testing?
Studio monitor headphones like Audio-Technica ATH-M50x or Sennheiser HD 560S offer flat frequency response for accurate testing. Consumer headphones often boost bass and treble, which can mask channel issues.
