I seem to recall the subject being discussed since the start of the year, but I can't seem to locate them. Thanks for what you did offer though. ________________________________ Message 2 _____________________________________ Time: 03:08:00 AM PST US From: "Christof Gommers" Subject: Re: XDP4000X-List: Planning to sell.... --> XDP4000X-List message posted by: "Christof Gommers" Put in on the forum of http://www.showyoursound.nl and http://www.carstyling.net ps. The XDP-4000X is very rare in Europe, I had to buy one in the USA because I could not find one in Europe (Belgium).

He can chose the different programs (10) but he cannot alter them. In the maual it says that you have to press 4 to select a frequenties and then lower or rease the level with the volume. If you are finished press 5. If he does this on the C90 it does not work. Does he need the wireless remote to set the equaliser, because he lost it? Thanks, Christof. ________________________________ Message 5 _____________________________________ Time: 04:59:49 PM PST US From: "Roland M" Subject: Re: XDP4000X-List: CDX-C90 and XDP-210EQ --> XDP4000X-List message posted by: "Roland M" >--> XDP4000X-List message posted by: "Christof Gommers" > > >Hello, > >A friend of mine has a CDX-C90 connected to a XDP-210EQ but he cannot set >the equaliser.

The way to set the equaliser is to hold down the SOUND button until the display changes. This will give you access to the settings menu. There should be three settings available from here. You will get settings for listening position tweaking, crossover adjustment (CNW) and the EQ. Pressing the SOUND button allow you to then switch between the three and the number buttons with the arrows now "on" will allow you to toggle within each selection. I'm not sure if the C90 has these light up arrows or if they just appear on the display but it should be the same as with the other units... To exit the settings menus you will have to again hold down the SOUND button for a few seconds to exit back to the "regular" controls. Roland M. BTW: Just as a note, the C90/210EQ pairing isn't the best one. Really the C90 is better of without the 210EQ as the C90 alone will get you better sound quality. The XDP-4000X is a much better unit to use with the C90. If you really need the EQ then I guess the 210EQ will do the job but you will sacrifice some of the sound quality the C90 has... ________________________________ Message 6 _____________________________________ Time: 05:42:22 PM PST US From: Randy Visentine Subject: Re: XDP4000X-List: CDX-C90 and XDP-210EQ --> XDP4000X-List message posted by: Randy Visentine Hello, You have to use the wireless remote to physically set the EQ and LPS settings with the C90. The memory can be recalled from the C90's face, but to physically change EQ curves and LPS positions, the wireless is your ONLY option (or get a friend to program the presets with another Unilink HU and they will remain in memory when hooked up to your system - but that is pretty impractical!) I agree the converters are not as good as the C90's, but I would GLADLY take a SMALL step down in D/A conversion to help the interior's poor acoustics by means of EQ, LPS, and Crossover. You won't notice any degredation and will be able to get your system sounding FANTASTIC! Just a note: I found the Left to Right LPS offset sounds a bit artificial for my tastes, but the front to rear offset will make your front stage come ALIVE if set properly (Read that "not too much rear fill!") The one thing I miss on my XDP-4000x is the instantly avalible bass and treble controls. Oh well, a small price to pay. I just have 3 main EQ curves I use, and have a few different "sub-curves" to allow a small bass and treble boost to each preset if desired. It works, but I would still prefer a stand alone bass and treble like the 210 has... Enjoy your fine setup...
