Alright so like alot of people on the forum, i spent alot of time playing with my logic 7 setting and EQ. Just a few days ago i found the best settings for me. I always wanted a little extra bass, and i finally seemed to nail it.

in order for this to work, you will need an IPOD. First put your ipod EQ setting to R&B, i used to have it off, im glad i changed it. What this does is AMPLIFY the EQ setting set on the car.

For the Logic 7 EQ
left to right: 4772553 (this is from the middle up, which is usually the default setting)

i believe the surround setting is the other one, not Theater.

After i did this, HUGE improvement over BASS, i feel like i have 10 inch subs installed.

concert hall is the other one!

Intersting. I have fiddled with the EQ as well, and have very similar settings with my iPod on Rock. from memory I think I am at 4563454


Thanks for sharing, I am gonna try it a little higher on the bass side!

hahaha yea that's the one, if you have the newer generation IPODS you'll notice that the EQ for R&B is about the same as the Logic 7 setting i provided.

BTW Your settings are very close to mine as well. I would change the EQ on the ipod first and see if you notice the difference.

I think the Logic 7's bass is awesome. It blows the crap out out of the sound system I had on my 2006 Infiniti M45. I had the super-upgraded 14 speaker Bose system on that. The tweeters and mid-range speakers were good but the bass was totally non-existent. The Logic 7's bass is very strong -- especially if you mess around with the equalizer and boost up those bass settings. I love it.

Just curious what bit rate you all rip to on your iPods. I stick with 128. More room.

128 or higher. The higher, the better the quality of songs.

All of mine have a bit rate of 320. That leaves plenty of room with 16 gigs on my iphone.

Where do you guys have your basic bass and treble set with those EQ settings?

I have 23,000+ songs so until they make a bigger iPod I'm stuck @ 128.

Are the bass and EQ dependent or independent or codependent?
