SSL's who replaced just the stereo with an Alpine

I have GSR w/ SSL and I replace my stock head unit with an Alpine CDA-9856 receiver for ipod mp3 goodness.

Settings:

Bass Center Frequency?
80hz -> 100hz -> 120hz -> 60hz -> 80hz

Bass Bandwidth?
1 -> 2 -> 3 -> 4 ->

Treble Center Frequency?
10.0kHz -> 12.5kHz -> 15.0kHz -> 7.5kHz -> 10.0kHz


Trying to get the best sound with the stock speakers and s/w!

Thanks

A work mate asked me to help him get his old Alpine head unit & CD changer out of his car. He was going to put them on Ebay. He let me have them for about $50. Result!

I don't know where they are made, but I have to agree that the HU's have gone to hell. Its sad really, but it seems the way a lot of brands are going these days.

I am waiting for the Pioneer 9800BT to come out, all the usual goodies plus bluetooth tech.

As far as you question about the settings, I don't see high the highpass or low pass settings would work since the deck has to operate through one of those adapaters. Until you are utilizing the RCA jacks, I would think those settings would be global.
