Alpine X0001 installed...flat EQ..BLAH

[zerafian]

I just got my alpine x0001 installed last week and have been having to deal with my musics EQ being flat as hell when its turned up. The bass sounds all muffeled...its awful.

I have an 04' 350z with the Bose sound system. I was told I possibly bypassed my amp and I need an adapter for it. I was jsut curious if anyone might have an idea or ahs experienced a similar problem with this receiver.

There is noticable bass coming out of the 10" sub behind the drivers seat but as I turn up my music the bass starts to blend with all the other pitches.

The peak output of the receiver is 50 watts...Im not sure if that is to low to get good potential out of the bose speaker and sub setup. It seems the factory 350z bose system has a 160 watt stereo output. Im guessing that may also be whats causing the quality loss, but Im not an expert. I might have under estimated the stock cd player?

Any help would be appriciated, thanks.
