eq adjustment for pioneer deh 4100ub

[drawersdropper]

This is some settings on the pioneer headunits, they look kinda like this....

F - 100 Q - 1N
F - 80 Q - 1W
F - 100 Q - 2N
F - 80 Q - 2W

Im just wondering what it all means ? the Q factor etc...
And how important is this setting to the overall sound ?
I listen to alot of rap and dancehall and have played around with it but I cant hear any difference it makes... But then again I dont no what its ment to be doing.

The manual dosent realy say much about it.
So if anyone could explane this to me a bit better that would be greatly appriciated...

haven't played with those decks in a while, but..

the number is the center frequency for the EQ band you are working with.. e.g. '80Hz' or '100Hz' etc

the Q factor says how much the surrounding frequencies will be affected.. so if the chosen freq is 100Hz and you set the Q to very wide (2W), you will basically be adjusting, for e.g., between 70Hz and 130Hz, with 100Hz being the center frequency..

A very narrow Q (2N) will be more along the lines of 90Hz to 110Hz.. which would give a more peaky response..

Those decks supposed to have a 3 band EQ. Go into the Audio settings and boost the Low/Med/High abit, set them to +3 or +4..

Then go into the EQ adjustment settings and play around the the center frequencies and Q factor..

For rap and dancehall, set the Low EQ to the lowest frequency possible, I think it's 50Hz and set the Q factor to very Wide.. you should notice a heavy thump in your subwoofer now.. do the same for the midrange and high range and select what you find sounds the best..

Note, when you get the best sounding center frequencies, go back to the Audio settings and lower the overall boost level.. Try not to exceed +3. You will get the fullest sound that way..

hope that helps..

actually the pios go down to 40hz centre freq on the adjustments.


you should set everything to flat first. and make your adjustments to your liking form there.

i thing that setting your talking abt is more to set the frequency..
the L is the frequency for the bass
the M is the frequency for the mids
and the H is the frequency for the hights.


i cant remember how i had mine set an i cant really say now casue i changed to a 7 band parametic eq deck..
