Mine was installed about two weeks ago. Still haven't found the perfect setting...

When you say you bumped the base up-two, do you mean from the center (middle) or from the very lowest?

I have mine set:
treble -1 to -2 off middle
Bass -1 off full (highest)
Balance (front to rear) a notch or two to the rear.
TC / natural

I think something's wrong with mine because I'm not having the awesome experience that everyone else seems to be having. The front tweeters are distorting about every third song- for example: Rihanna - Stay, is extremely horrific sounding--major distortion anything at 40 or above.

Maybe something I'm doing wrong (or high expectations?), but I miss my old system in some ways, I think it just needed a sub?

I also upgraded to BeSpoke and Nav at the same time so it was a lot to fiddle around with for a while. But after two weeks I have tried almost every setting. 'Some' songs, IMO, seem to sound better on FEEL and others sound HORRIBLE on FEEL so I've just been leaving it on NATURAL...but something is missing? Even my go-to CD when I test a car stereo--Fleetwood Mac, Rumours sounds....empty? My Factory Corolla JBL system BLOWS this set-up out of the water!

I have the 2014 unit and OEM Audio + Reference System 400CF

I was tempted to post this same question, but I was going to call Daniel first.

Would appreciate any pointers too...
