It's the same.. Read the first post.

Does not really matter what year your car is if you don't have iDrive and have the Logic7 stereo.

Very preliminary work was done with a Mic and an RTA on my computer.

I remember using your settings when I first got my 2008 coupe.
..... Time to play around with my settings again - I trust your 2009 settings and logic 7 stero is the same as for my 2008 ?

Thanks

drivemethrough · 12-29-2009, 01:23 PM

I haven't tried out those setting myself yet, but I'm wondering - would the same values apply to the european version as well? I'm talking about an e93 with iDrive. One thing I know for sure is that the L7 in Europe doesn't have any environmental settings such as concert hall or cathedral on it.

Edit: just read the whole tread and found the new settings, nevermind this

Nice, been waiting for this, haven´t seen it until now..

Guess this will be the same settings for my 2010 E92, right?

Can´t wait to check it out!

Come on now dood, I have always been a nerd.

Speedracer07 · 02-05-2010, 09:51 AM

Thanks for this thread Malek!!

I just picked up a 330 and was thinking I would have to completely gut the system to get good sound and after playing with your settings last night I'm quite happy!!

my07_335i · 02-08-2010, 11:39 AM

thanks for the info, sounds alot better than what my car came with...I was looking for something like this on the net. My car came with everything set to either +4, +5 or +6

resipsa12 · 02-08-2010, 11:54 PM

I took delivery of my much anticipated 2010 335xi last month. Perhaps the "settings" discussed herein will solve the issue, but seriously, why the heck does this so-called premium sound system sound atrocious? The sound changes tone, breadth, clarity and volume without changing speed, as if it cannot decide what to do with the sound. Oddly enough, it doesn't seem to have this problem with classical music, only with everything else. A received a "software update" from the dealer, which helped, but did not resolve the issue. Is this the defect addressed in these threads??

AlanAZ · 02-14-2010, 12:07 AM

Damn, my L7 system is sounding really good now..

The factory should hire you to setup their systems before they're released.

Thank you!

montini · 02-16-2010, 10:09 AM

I am new to this. Just bought an German 2008 e92 335xi with navi pro and high end audio (or so it is called), does this mean I have Logic7 or not? I am confused. This weekend I'll try the settings given in the original post. Thanks

augustxii · 03-11-2010, 09:11 PM

sorry for the crazy bump. but how do you get into the
80hz -2
200hz 0
500hz +2
1khz +3
2khz -2
5khz -1
10khz +4

settings with a 2006 325i e90?

mr1000 · 03-13-2010, 02:47 AM

Malekreza11---

Very helpful thx...you wrote to be sure to switch off the ipod EQ...but do you know if the ipod will play the equalizer song settings set in iTunes thru the L7 even if the EQ function on the ipod is switched off?

Thx

Thinking of going aftermarket now.

Hey malekreza:

how about some love for the e93 verts ??
Your coupe settings sound pretty good - but looking for better sound.

I have an 08 non I drive.

Hey Nick325 - did u go aftermarket ???

midlife · 03-17-2010, 01:14 PM

Anyone have any good e93 vert settings ??

Pacha · 04-01-2010, 06:00 PM

Malek!!!
you are the one!!! last week I left a friend of mine (a girl) inside my car. It took me 5 min to go to the supermarket. When I came back, I found her playing around with the eq... I almost died!
Now, my L7 sounds better than ever... (I don´t know if I should thank her... but definitely thanks to you!!

onganet · 04-01-2010, 06:16 PM

Wow, thanks for putting in the time and effort to do this Malek.

I accidentally came across this post, I'm definitely going to try those settings out today.

Thanks!

ydrive55 · 04-07-2010, 10:36 AM

So I must be a noob, on my 2007 335i w iDrive I cannot find the adjustment for Aux in?

I do not have the iPod connector so I am using a line level out into the Aux in in the armrest... am I missing something or is that adjustment only for those of you that have the actual iPod input?

Thanks for your hard work and your settings are awesome!
