Also... I understand it will never happen, but the front/rear settings sounds pretty cool. For the last six years I've wanted to give my front speakers just a little nudge in the treble area...

You can do this right now. The Empeg has the ability to have 5 bands front/rear. Change the "2 Channel" to "4 Channel" in the EQ settings. (Note, don't try it at home, it has to be plugged in the car for the option to be available.)

And as I've pointed out, it's possible to get very fine control with only 5 bands as long as you're willing to spend time tweaking the parametric settings.
