Anyway, on the SOW system, the amps, speakers and all signal processing & EQ are from Bose. I know guy who designed the amps sits next door, the main speaker designer seats next to my old office, etc. The headunit is from another Nissan supplier (2 different ones, actually).

For those of you who find the range of adjustment insufficient ... I'm sympathetic, but I'll risk being too direct and say your preference is WAY out of what could be considered accurate and we just can't accomodate your needs. Sorry.
Not loud enough? Well, for some people it's like what they say about horsepower (there's never enough). There are some practical considerations for an OEM audio system that come into play here. What do you think Nissan would say if we asked them to put yards of heavier gauge wiring, a second battery and a couple of 1 farad caps? Would most G35 drivers mind carrying around an extra 100lbs just so the audio system could play 3dB louder? Car design is a game of compromises. But each of us has preferences that are rarely perfectly matched by the Nissan designers compromises. That's why there's an aftermarket industry.
Personally, I like the nimblness of the G, and wouldn't want to compromise that for a little more loudness. But, that's just me.

Great response Feng on how designing today's cars are filled with compromises.........in all areas including audio.

Now that I better understand the theory behind the system's design, here's what I've settled on:
Bass- 2 clicks up from flat
Treble - 1 click up from flat
Balance - 1 click to right
Fade - 1 click to rear
Seems to generally preserve the "front bias" the design is going for but makes me feel like the sound is more balanced around me with a little more "bottom."
To each his/her own.....
