A different Alpine question, but somewhat related to the original thread:

I have a 9845, with a front stage amp and a sub amp. Internal HU amp is Off
I noticed that around the volume of 23-26, the deck alters my bass treble settings.
If I have the treble set at +3, as I go past volume 25, I can hear that the processor is diminishing the increased treble settings that I have programed in - even though the settings on the screen stay the same. (It acts the same was as a factory stereo in my dads 95 Ford winstar - after a certain level it would ignore the bass treble settings to prevent distortion).

Is this common for Alpine HUs? It is not the amp, because it does this with my amp gains all the way down and with my gains 3/4 of the way up - always at the same volume. I talked with a salesmen where I bought it and he couldn't explain it.

Any thoughts, suggestions?

Try calling Alpine tech support. Those guys are very helpful and will try their best to answer your question.

Seriously, you guys are going to spend that much on a deck and not read the freaking manual...It's there for a reason, especially with a high tech piece of equipment like any of those decks. I have a 9833 and a pxa-h701 with the rux controller and I can adjust anything on the fly if I need to...on both units! it's not that hard.

i never said it was hard...i was just trying to get an understanding of what i was even changing

but thanks for coming out

I say it's hard. Better yet it's ****in retarded.

And For the record, Not all people bought their decks brand new. Some may have came with the used car they purchased or some may have Purchased the deck used. Either way not everyone has got the Manual to read an learn about. Some people are stranded to figure these things out one step at a time and we come on these "Car audio forums" for advice not to have some douche bag tell us to "Read the Manual." So on that note, GO **** YOURSELF.

some people not meaning all should stick to factory decks,or perhaps a koss decks with a one page manual lol:smilie_da
im sorry but if you cant figure it out on youre own ,im suprised you found a nipple and survived youre first 6 months of life:dunno:

and im in no way an affiliate of cca,im just here,banned once a month,and im due,thank you im here all night
haha:smokin:

Alpine's manuals are available online for free ... Settle down there buddy you may give yourself a hernia(sp) or something.

When you buy a new deck. You should read the whole manual!

hosers and bacons are getting upity!!
