When I turn the mpeg to 0 db, it is absolutley deafening
anyone at the NJ meet could confirm that

so I guess that means the gains are ok.
I think that maybe more people arent complaining about it because maybe no one noticed it? I'm not sure though. I would doubt that both my players have the same problem since they were made so far apart in time.
Tony, I'm glad to see after all this time, you are still helping people on the bbs
as far as trying it with the tuner module unplugged, i will do that tomorrow, i have to go to work toight and cant rip my dash apart again

do you think it has something to do with the fact that I'm running the eq in the four channel mode and not two channel mode? I wonder if that matters to the player??
