custom sound settings on pioneer package

[20131pz69]

Besides the Treble/ Mid/ Bass, there is a custom setting i noticed at the dealer. Anyone play with that to get better sound? What did you set it to?

Eh, I've just tweaked the TMB values to get good sound. Never really bother with pre-set EQ settings.

I just set mine flat - Classical, IIRC.

wow! The pioneer system isn't great- guess it's worth the $500 for the upgrade, but the high's suck! Think the subs are OK, think the woofers are OK as well (just been listening to FM/ XM radio)

Any quick fix for the high's? Can i replace my tweeters w/ Vifa BC25SC06-04 1"?

I think the Pioneer system is phenomenal. I think I have my settings at 8-6-4, or something other.

I wouldn't judge the sound based on 'radio,' get a CD with atleast 192-bitrate quality, then try again. You'll be surprised.

I second that taurus, This is one of the better sounding factory audio sustem ive heard. The highs are bright without hurting my ears. My wifes last car was an STS platinum with bose premium audio and it sounded flat. When you say it stinks, at what volume levels are you listening to it at? The stereo will automatically cut highs and lows as u crank it up in an effort to prevent clipping. So yea u crank that knob right to the pin then it will sound crappy.

i love mine, best factory stereo ive had, will maybe replace door speakers for something with more quality cause factory speakers are made with the cheapest materials

Just remember they use cheap materials because they are efficient and require much less power wattage. so if you replace them with speakers that are less efficient(better quality and higher power rating) you will lose sound volume and quality. They will need to be amplified to be better than stock.
(NOTE: only saying this because you didnt say anything about adding a amp)
