[QUOTE="Bass911, post: 7335336, member: 580057"] I'm not a big fan of the Clarion. I had one and it was just Ok. It did make music sound a little better. I don't like Soundstream eq's either. I like the Kicker KQ5 and KQ9. They cost more, but sound way better than the Clarion and my pxa-h100. I have the KQ9 and every time you adjust a band you can really hear a big difference in the frequency you're boosting or cutting. You can do it with cheaper eq's, but the Kicker seems louder and cleaner. Eq's are not overkill. You can't believe that so called car audio vet! I have an Audiocontrol EQX also, and the Kicker seems to be on the same level IMO. I like the Kenwood KGC-4042A, it might surprise you? I think Kicker stopped making the KQ9 (graphic), but the KQ5 (parametric) is on Ebay? I did hide the hanging wires.
