I used a PM for a while and am pretty sure that Bass and Treble can only be adjusted with a Beo4 (or equivalent).  Even then it's fairly hit and miss because there's no feedback of the settings.  The consensus in the threads on the subject suggest that the Bass and Treble can each be adjusted 5 steps up or down using the A.SETUP function on the remote. 

Ok, that's really useful, thank you.

Roughly how much of a bass boost do you get?

Let me describe the problem a little more clearly. The Beolab 3's I'm connected to sound *fantastic* when played really quite loud. Below that level, they sound kind of thin. Over quite a small increase in volume, they go from "a bit dull" to spectacular, but they make this transition just a little too loud for prolonged listening.

I can manually boost the bass with a graphic equalizer in software on my mac, and it mostly solves this problem, but there's no equivalent graphic equalizer solution for the iPad or any of the other devices we have in the house. The software kind of sucks, frankly.

Sounds like exactly the sort of problem that pushing the bass up a little might help.

Has anybody else seen this on the Beolab 3's?

Thanks for your help!

Hi,

What you need is Loudness.

Unfortunately after the following thread, it seems Loudness don't work on Playmaker…

Yes, that's exactly what I need! Thank you!

I have, I think, a Playmaker 1, which the thread suggests might well support the "loudness" function - I'll talk to B&O tech support and see if they can give me a definitive answer before lashing out on a Beo4.

It's annoying because the box has a web server and an interface to the network. Would it have killed them to make these things adjustable from there?

Loudness would maybe solve your 'problem', but indeed, the Playmaker doesn't have the loudness option. I tried.....

Maybe you can borrow a Beo4 from someone???
I have 4 Beo 4's lying around, only use 2 (but I live in The Netherlands)...
