I had a very weird occurance happen to me when I did this to my dodge shadow yesterday. I ended up subtracting the values backwards and it ended up sounding GREAT and when I realized I did it backwards and switched it it sounded kinda blah so I went back to the backwards EQ. Just thought I would share ..

That kind of makes sense. The EQ part of the guide tries to get you to a "flat" frequency response. This actually sounds kind of dead but it's a great starting point for you to tweak the sound to your tastes. Once you get a good flat EQ, most people end up bumping up the bass and treble (or subtracting some midrange) to get a sound they are more used to. The metered tests are great for finding gaps in your system (where your sub only goes upto so many Hz and your front speakers cut off above that) or peaks (where you have several speakers all doing thier part to play a frequency and it gets over represented). Some cars produce their own gaps and peaks too. Once those are EQ'd out, you can then tweak the sound to ear.

I was surprised that the AutoEQ in Alpha8 sounded great (maybe a little bright) right out of the box!

I guess you had a great ear already!

I should be able to whip something together but it was going to be based mainly on this thread.. Credit to Rob S.

I'm not able to run 3.00 on my main player due to lack of courage for alpha software and low RAM due to the number of songs I have. The ram issue should be fixed soon however.
