![]() ![]() Sounds pretty good, a bit much with fader to +1 but zero causes the fading issues but I might just need to get used to it I am pretty sensitive to notes at the upper range Volume on pretty loud, windows closed.įader to +1, too much at +2. I'm running through the e92 with idrive right now as I type. I'm been using that setting even though most recommendations are to leave it off. I'm very surprised (and happy) that Concert Hall was indicated as the correct setting. I'm guessing that Center position on that is default, but am curious as to where I find that? Thanks a lot. ![]() When you say +2 on Fader, is that to the Front or the Rear? Also, I can't find an Aux-In Level. Already tested them out (on my E90/with I drive) and they sound really nice. All the settings are more up to date than before a nd better. Lower volumes may need some additional compensation, BUT DO NOT TOUCH THE EQ!Īgain, I hope this helps you guys! Good luck and hopefully enjoy!Īs promised before, I am starting a NEW thread on the optimal EQ settings for the E90's, E92's, I-Drive and Non I-Drive cars. Those two parameters are set the way they are because I personally listen to music at moderate to higher volumes. If you do not listen to your music at moderate to high volumes, feel free to adjust the BASS and TREBLE settings to your liking. These settings are a prolonged attempt to offer the most balanced, peak-less and desirable sound possible based on what BMW has left on the table for us. Its basic layout is more SQ than anything. for those wanting a thumping heart rattling sound system, don't expect these settings to offer that by any means! The LOGIC7 sound system in our E9x's are not that type of audio system. Technik is one of them that comes to mind. And as always, if any of you have questions or curious about anything, I will do my best to help you out.īesides myself, there are a few others I have seen around this part of the forum who are knowledgable in the car audio arena. ![]() I hope this simplified thread can help all of you. The under seat subs in the E90's do not provide the same type of bass as opposed to the E92's and in essence its gives the feeling that the stereo is weaker to its 2-door counterpart. The settings posted directly above, are the best settings I could come up for the E90's with LOGIC7. The sound staging in the coupes are a lot better, bass focus is more centralized, tighter and stronger due to the way its setup in the car. Unfortunately, the E90's have it worse than the E92's. Well, FINALLY those are the settings for the E90's. This is a very ideal quality! Yes, I do feel that BMW could have done a better job with its LOGIC7 setup (Mercedes does a much better job at it), but this sounds good for what it is. Through time and experience with this audio system, I have learned that once dialed in well, the LOGIC7 surround processor actually helps to widen the sound field as if you are in a larger car. If you decide to not use LOGIC7, there is nothing wrong with that. Listen to some new age classical such as Yanni playing the piano, and you will see exactly what I am trying to say. It only crowds the sound and makes certain notes and instruments play very peaky and annoyingly. First thing is first, sound staging should NEVER be toward the rear of the car. Why did I say leave it off before, and now I am saying its good to turn on? Well here is the reason: With the FADER set to 0 or biased toward the rear like how some others recommended, you will get that dreaded rear fading issue, where it sounds like the rear's are cutting in and out. The settings posted above, I recommend using LOGIC7 in the MUSIC mode for NON I-Drive vehicles. make sure the IPOD internal EQ is turned off! (This applies to ALL CARS!) These settings work very well for E90's with the 2009+ iDrive as well!Īux-In Level: NOT APPLICAPLE IN 2009+ iDrive Systemsįor those who have the IPOD adapter as well. All the settings are more up to date than before and better. ***Īs promised before, I am starting a NEW thread on the optimal EQ settings for the E90's, E92's, I-Drive and Non I-Drive cars. ***UPDATE*** This thread has now been updated with 2009+ iDrive SETTINGS. ![]()
