Out of the Pioneer videos, this was was most informing.
Depending upon the Pioneer in-dash receiver model you have and if it operates with the Pioneer Smart Sync App, you may have access to a 31 band EQ for very powerful control over your system. You can see it operate here: ua-cam.com/video/N6Lfcnjyboo/v-deo.html The Pioneer Smart Sync App works with many in-dash receivers, not just SPH-10BT. You may also find this Pioneer You Tube video about crossover settings useful: ua-cam.com/video/WvJXYh6vk_0/v-deo.html You can find more videos on Pioneer's You Tube Channel here: ua-cam.com/users/pioneerelectronics
hello, I also have an older model (DEH-x1650UB) and there is not the option to copy the EQ curve.
Can you tell me the preset of POWERFULL?
are these setting adjustment that you made more for lows/bass? Thanks.
The settings made in this video are simply for demonstration. These settings are not meant to be used in any particular vehicle. It's just to show how to change the settings.
If you'd like to learn a little more about using the EQ on your Pioneer receiver please read the rest of this post.
Modern Pioneer receivers don't have a bass and treble setting. There is a much more powerful sound shaping tool called a graphic equalizer. Don't be afraid of it. It's easy to use. All 13 settings in the Equalizer are frequency adjustments. You can use them to make any given frequency a little louder or a little quieter as compared to other frequencies and without changing the volume of the other frequencies. The frequency adjustments are arranged like a piano keyboard with the low frequencies to the left and the high frequencies to the right. If you want more bass, I recommend the "S.Bass" preset. It will add a lot more bass into the music. If you want more treble, I recommend the "Natural" preset. It will roll off the bass, and add in more treble. If you are listening to a ball game or people talking, or an audio book, I recommend the "Vocal" Preset. You can see the presets here: ua-cam.com/video/tMLFL8K3gMM/v-deo.html You can make your own adjustments too. Simply start with any EQ preset that sounds pretty good to you, and make your own adjustments from there. The 50, 80 and 125, frequency bands are typically the bass frequencies. 3.15k, 5k, 8k, and 12.5kHz are typically the treble frequencies. If your Pioneer receiver works with the Pioneer Smart Sync App, you can use a bass, mid, and treble control from the app on your phone.

I have a question about the subwoofer level setting. when it comes to the output voltage of the RCA sub out.. it's rated @4V right, but how does adjustments to the subwoofer level affect that?
Basically I'm wondering.. I have my amp gain set with the subwoofer level at 0. If I bump it up to +1,2,3... Does it affect the output voltage of the RCA'S to get the increase in volume?
And if the subwoofer level affects the output voltage of the RCA'S, then wouldn't setting my amp gain with the sub level at like +8 make more sense since it'll be a stronger input voltage for the amp? Or does going past 0 introduce slight distortion?
The receiver should show ~4 volt output on the RCA's at the highest output levels. You're on the right track. Please take a few moments to read this answer. It's a little long but may help you to better understand.
If you are using a hammer and you hit your thumb, don't blame the hammer. The goal is to create an audio system with little or no distortion. If the in-dash receiver's RCA outputs clip they create a distorted audio signal. That distorted audio signal is then in turn amplified by the subwoofer amp or other amplifiers in the system. In a well designed and set up audio system, you should be able to turn up the master volume to, or near it's maximum, and not hear any distortion ( or clipping) from the speakers in the system. If you have all of these settings (for example: EQ, speaker levels, crossover levels, bass boost etc...) set to zero or lower you should be able to turn the volume up to it's max, and the RCA outputs of the in-dash receiver should not clip and create distortion that will in turn be amplified by your system.
If you add in a boosted signal on the in-dash receiver from any of the audio controls (for example: EQ, speaker levels, crossover levels, bass boost etc...) this may cause the in-dash receiver's RCA outputs to clip and create distortion at high output levels.
So... Here is an example. This is hypothetical, please don't take the numbers literally and try to translate them to any given in-dash receiver. In this best case scenario I have excellent amplifiers and well matched speakers. My in-dash receiver master volume control has a maximum volume level number of 50. I have all of the audio settings set to zero, and I can turn up the master volume to 50 and the RCA outputs do not clip. I set the gains on the amplifiers so that there is no distortion. That's what I want.
Now, I add in a subwoofer level control adjustment of +5. When I turn up the master volume I can get to only volume level 45 before I begin to hear distortion coming from my speakers. If I add in an EQ adjustment on the 80Hz frequency band of +4, my master volume begins to distort now at volume level 41. Remember I started at volume level 50 with no distortion. Please note this is just a hypothetical example. In this example, the in-dash receiver is causing the distortion and sending that distorted signal to the amplifiers. The amps and speakers are simply doing the job they were designed to do.
What's the solution? Use the audio controls to your best advantage. If you set them to zero or lower, your in-dash receiver shouldn't be creating noise. Set the gain controls on your amplifiers so you don't hear any distortion at high volume levels. If you want to add in a +1 or +2, on the EQ, that's OK as long as you realize you may be getting distortion at the highest volume levels. You need to find the settings that works best for you. If you are trying to balance your system so all of the speakers are at or near the same volume level, consider lowering the volume level of some speakers rather than raising the volume level of one individual speaker.
If you are using Bluetooth Audio as your main music source, consider lowering the volume level on the Phone. It's possible, the phone is overloading the in-dash receiver's input through Bluetooth Audio, and the distortion is beginning right there. If you set the volume level on the phone lower, you may be able to turn up the master volume level on the in-dash receiver with less distortion.
If you want more volume, you might want to consider a more powerful amplifier and speakers.

I need to lower the base on this receiver I have in one of my cars. In my other car with the manufacturer stereo, the music sounds great from the same source, but through this receiver, some songs, not all of them, sound terrible due to the base being too high. Which setting will give me lower base?
The easiest and quickest way to lower the bass on your Pioneer in-dash receiver is to select the Flat, or the Natural, or the Vocal factory preset EQ curve. You can see it here: ua-cam.com/video/tMLFL8K3gMM/v-deo.html If you want to get into the individual EQ frequency adjustments, that's easy too. I recommend to lower the 50Hz and 80Hz settings to 0 or possibly lower.

Can you provide the equalizer settings for pioneer 4150 ub as I am using it without amplifier and speakers are pioneer 6575v2.
Thanks
Here is a Pioneer equalizer setting How To video for a similar receiver model: ua-cam.com/video/sTYg_NMyPi4/v-deo.html I recommend to try the factory presets such as Powerful, or Natural as a place to start. The preset EQ's are designed to sound good with different types of music or talk in different vehicles. If you like what you hear, you don't have to change anything. If you want to make some detailed adjustments, that is easy and is shown in the video above.

I just picked up a model DEH-S6120BS and I don't see how to adjust the custom EQ settings
With Pioneer DEH-S6120BS you have the option of using the Pioneer Smart Sync app for setting your custom EQ curve or using the in-dash receiver. I recommend to use the Pioneer Smart Sync App. It's easier. The app is available from Google Play or Apple App Store you can find more information here: ua-cam.com/video/hVB7qSDRNCc/v-deo.html You can also set the EQ using the in-dash receiver. It works very similar to what you see here: ua-cam.com/video/tMLFL8K3gMM/v-deo.html When you make a change to any factory setting you will automatically create Custom 1. Custom 2 let's you start for a flat setting. Please be sure to have the latest firmware installed for Pioneer DEH-S6120BS.

is it possible to put different settings for the front and for the back speakers?
What is the model number of your Pioneer in-dash receiver? Most modern Pioneer receivers have one equalizer and the settings effect all outputs the same. So it's not possible to use different EQ settings for different speakers, however, it is possible to set up the outputs so they work differently. This may be a solution for you. You can learn more about it in this How To video from Pioneer: ua-cam.com/video/4xf-rc9IEok/v-deo.html
Using the crossovers built into the receiver may be a good option for you. A crossover is used to filter out certain frequencies from some speakers. For example, you may be able to filter out the low frequencies from the front speakers and then use one EQ setting that works for both front and rear.
You can learn more about using a crossover on a Pioneer receiver in this How To video fro Pioneer: ua-cam.com/video/WvJXYh6vk_0/v-deo.html

Hi ive set mine to how i like it but doesnt save when going bk into the van. Saves all my radio settings and clock but eq needs to be selected everytime???
Depending upon the Pioneer receiver's model number, the EQ can be set to different settings for different sources. If this is not the issue, I recommend to press the receiver's microprocessor reset button. On modern Pioneer receivers you can find the microprocessor reset button behind the detachable face.

If I mess with the presets, how do I reset them? E.g if I change the frequencies of the “powerful” eq then how will I reset them to the default ones?
No worries. The factory EQ presets don't get erased. When you start with "powerful" and make a change, all you are doing is creating preset "Custom 1". The Powerful setting will still be there unchanged.
You can see it here: ua-cam.com/video/tMLFL8K3gMM/v-deo.html Please watch the video with the sound on.

Does the super todoroki sound will deactivate when i disconnect the pioneer smart app? Is the eq setting on the app only effect when you're connected with the app?
Super Todoroki is available only when the Pioneer Smart Sync app is connected. You can use the 13 band EQ built into the Pioneer receiver without the use of the Smart Sync app at any time. If you set the EQ with the app, you are using a 31 band EQ. When the app is not in use, the 13 band EQ approximates the settings of the 31 band Smart Sync app. You can find a full playlist of How To videos about Pioneer MVH-S320BT here: ua-cam.com/video/dMsL-5uwogw/v-deo.html and you can find more videos on Pioneer's UA-cam Channel here: ua-cam.com/users/pioneerelectronics

The DEH-P5100UB was manufactured in 2008. That's a few years before Pioneer started making You Tube videos for many of it's products. The Pioneer DEH-P5100UB has several factory preset EQ curves and has a 7 band EQ. Each of the factory preset EQ curves can be adjusted and each individual frequency band can be adjusted.

Can someone recommend a good EQ setting for classic rock?
I recommend the "Powerful" factory preset as a place to start for listening to classic rock. The performance and effect you hear in your car will depend largely the source you are listening to, such as FM, CD, USB, or Bluetooth. And on the rest of the audio system, including the speakers, subwoofers, and amplifiers. Listen to the music and the source you like best. If you like what you are hearing, you don't need to change a thing. If you want to lower the bass or, boost the higher frequencies etc..., I recommend to make small changes and listen for a while. You can always make more changes. The factor presets for the EQ wont' go away. It's easy to make small changes to any of the factory settings.
