Yes, Glenn, thank you very much for your settings. I used to be in the car audio business way back in the day, but now a days, I'm just happy to have a decent sounding oem system that is really not all that bad, it definitely beats anything else I've had in the past including the B&O system in my previous 11' S4. I am in the process of ordering a harness from Technic so that I can install a JL XD500/3v2 amp which I'm going to start with at first to just amplify the under seat subs and see how I like that. I'm waiting patiently to hear reviews on the new bavsound ghost subs that it sounds like many guys on here have pre ordered. I read in Technic's write up, that he was very impressed with the oem subs after adding the aftermarket amp. So much so that he questioned whether the customer would even need a trunk mounted sub. I am not crazy about the idea of a sub box sitting in my trunk as I often carry golf clubs or something else back there and am not keen on giving up the space. If a musicar box comes up for sale anytime in the near future I would probably go that route but for now I want to start by just amping up the oem subs and setting the xovers to see what that gets me. If I feel it could be better I will probably go for the bavsound under seat subs next, and maybe consider doing the bavsound stage 1 speaker upgrade kit. I guess my biggest question is has anyone on here posted a new eq setting with the upgraded bavsound speakers? I'm assuming the midbass response would be slightly better and not so bright on the high end due to the silk dome tweeters so obviously some different eq settings would be warranted. Any opinions?

I'm so used to aftermarket systems where you have to be in that specific vehicle to listen. It's really cool that you guys can hear how my system sounds in your own car.

I'm not an expert in terms of sound but I really would love to optimize my listening experience with this HK system. What would be the optimal setting for F33 convertible and I Listen to hip hop/ rap 80% of the time, pop 10%, EDM 10%. I do like bass though.

I have set my eq as you have specified..but I added 1 click more to the lowest frequency. .your settings do give a more balanced sound. I also used those settings on my previous e90 car with hk.

Set it like Glenn did, and then turn up the bass slider to like +3 or 4. Definitely added more bass for me when I want it.
