Is it me, or is there waaaayyyy too much treble....especially from the speakers right near the side view mirrors.
I kinda wish there was a 5 or 10 band equalizer.

As someone that doesn't listen with too much bass, its just about right for me, I like a lot of mid and treble. Its funny that in my BMW's Harmon Kardon system, the bass was much much deeper and stronger than the HK system in my ML.

Yes, I did adjust the bass and treble which helps. Although an equalizer would be nicer.
What’s nice, is the bass/treble adjustments appear to be specific for each mode of the radio (i.e. Satellite, disc, FM, etc.), allowing you to set different levels for each, and the system remembers those settings.

Sound quality varies, all depending on bitrates.
All my mp3s are 320bits the highest, wish it could play FLACs.
Manuals says it can play DTS audio files, didn't work for me, probably they wand DTS CD.
I keep surround 7.1 turn on all the time, perfect sound no complains.
