Gold Member Username: Nyyfan13Fi SSD USA Post Number: 5936 Registered: Jul-06 | i showed up for my class an hour early today so i decided to sit in my car play with the HU for about 30 minutes....first time i have done it since i got my stuff installed. searching around i found this BBE feature. didnt know what it was so i turned it on cause it was off. it made it louder and cleaner it sounded like. not sure if it should be on or not so i searched for it on this site and read it shuold be on. chad and jexx both stated to have it on. so before i keep it on, i just wanted to make sure i was correct in assuming to have it on?.....thanks |

Silver Member Username: Mike11202Sewell, NJ US Post Number: 976 Registered: Nov-06 | Also go to settings by clicking and holding the joystick thing for 5 seconds, it gives you start up options. Set the Calibration to "low" instead of high. |

Platinum Member Username: Rovin4 10 Pioneer... Post Number: 12092 Registered: Jul-05 | for some reason i dont care to use the BBE on my 860.... |
Gold Member Username: Nyyfan13Fi SSD USA Post Number: 5946 Registered: Jul-06 | whys that rovin? when i used mine for the quick minute or 2 it sounded better but i turned it off cause i wasnt sure wat it was exactly so i didnt wanna screw things up.... |
Platinum Member Username: Rovin4 10 Pioneer... Post Number: 12094 Registered: Jul-05 | well IMO i just like natural sounds off a HU without the need to process or enhance anything ...on my deck pretty everything is set almost factory except a slight rise in tweeter & a sub high pass of 63hz i think ...no real need for to play around with anything else since my deck has quite good sq to it .... |
Silver Member Username: Mike11202Sewell, NJ US Post Number: 984 Registered: Nov-06 | yea i love what the BBE processing does on the 780 makes it sound a lot better IMO |
Gold Member Username: Suleman36Post Number: 4269 Registered: Feb-05 | When i had my 860 HU, i didnt need the BBE feature but when i changed to the 780mp i definetly used it at level 1. It made a night and day differance in my case. |
Bronze Member Username: EvoixmrPost Number: 84 Registered: Aug-07 | Just got a 880 with stock speakers and I keep the BBE on at 0 and it sounds badazz. I had my dad listen to it and he thought I installed my subs already. lmao |
Silver Member Username: JtownPost Number: 299 Registered: Mar-07 | I have a pretty basic/older pioneer and I have an option of 1-3 for BBE, and I keep it at 3, but the subwoofer low because of the difference it makes in any song. but i also have another option for the bass engine where I can set it at a spec fq, like 80hz, 120hz, etc. where should that be set? |
Silver Member Username: Mike11202Sewell, NJ US Post Number: 985 Registered: Nov-06 | well you mean crossover freq? i would set that at 80hz |
Gold Member Username: Nyyfan13Fi SSD USA Post Number: 5949 Registered: Jul-06 | "Also go to settings by clicking and holding the joystick thing for 5 seconds, it gives you start up options. Set the Calibration to "low" instead of high." i turned the BBE on and set it at 0 and it sounds good. but i held in the joystick for 5+ seconds but nothing happened....it just acted like i hit it once and gave me menus like normal.... |
Platinum Member Username: BestmankindSOUND SPLINTER RL-S ON... Post Number: 15021 Registered: Oct-05 | did you read what the BBE does in the user's manual yanks. please read or google stuff before you post man. lol. |
Gold Member Username: Nyyfan13Fi SSD USA Post Number: 5950 Registered: Jul-06 | i lost my manual..... and i searched for it just wanted some clarification.....damn, sorry chad |

Silver Member Username: Mike11202Sewell, NJ US Post Number: 987 Registered: Nov-06 | the joystick on the headunit not the remote. make sure your head unit is OFF, then it lets you change time and settings ect. thats where the calibration is |
Gold Member Username: Nyyfan13Fi SSD USA Post Number: 5951 Registered: Jul-06 | gotcha...thanks for that mike and goodie |
