Wow! What a difference those tricks make. I just tinkered with my deck and instantly noticed a difference, especially with the Through Mode feature. A huge increase in bass response to my sub from the radio (FM/AM).

Great find Esxtreme!!

Tried loud mode as well and couldn't get it to work either. Through mode worked nicely.
