You have to go to the system options menu and then audio options. There is a bass compensation option that allows you to increase or decrease bass. The owners manual is online at the bose website.

No, the bass does not have a separate control; but I believe you should be able to adjust the bass from your computer sound controls.

To reduce boominess, place thick rubber underneath all speakers and move them away from walls. Also, you can EQ the 160Hz down and raise the 6 & 8kHz to max. for the cymbals. These shine when I did this to my setup.

Press and hold the power button for approx. 3 seconds. A quick touch of the power button, after the unit is turned on, will switch between 2 modes. One mode is high the other is low. Your preference will depend on your surrounding background sounds. I.E., restaurant setting as opposed to more quiet conversation. It takes a little practice however, you'll find the ability to switch from high to low or vice versa, is very handy in controlling the sound quality. To turn the unit off, press & hold the power button, you'll hear a tone as the unit shuts down.

Change sound settings to turn off equalizer and adjust the bass (up) and the treble(down)...helps a little

There is a "bass mute" button below the display. Try this first, but I don't know if this would mute "your own bass lines" too.

There is an amp adjustment, but it can't be turned down low enough for me either. Must have been made for the really, really deaf :-(

Thanks. I was afraid of that. Sine wave sweep? Spl meter? I just want to turn down the treble a bit.

You can't.But you can (bear with me) in one of 3 ways.While there are no controls marked Treble & Bass, hitting the "Sound Mode" button effectively brings up the treble & brings down the bass in a fixed configuration.ORyou can use the "sub woofer" +/- for more subtle gradesORyou can go to the "menu" mode on your TV (most of them have same nowadays) and adjust the treble/bass functions there.I realise none of these is as simple as the old T/B function was (is, on many other systems) but they DO work, quite well.

No, you can only adjust the bass by turning the on/off switch, which is located at the back of the subwoofer. There is no way to adjust the treble. If you download a graphic equalizer, you would then be able to adjust the treble and other sounds the way you like.

On the instructions: X-Bass Control: When the power is first turned on, the unit will enter the extra bass mode which emphasizes the bass frequencies, "X-BASS" indicator will appear. To cancel the extra bass mode, press the X-BASS button on the remote control. Bass Control: l. Press the BASS/TREBLE button to select "bass". 2. Within 5 seconds, press the VOLUME (+ or-) button to adjust the bass. "X-BASS" will disappear. Treble Control: 1. Press the BASS/TREBLE button to select "Treble". 2. Within 5 seconds, press the VOLUME (+ or -) button to adjust the treble. "X-BASS" indicator will disappear. So, to answer your question it appears you can adjust the sound tonality. The speaker volume on the unit is not comparable to a BOSE stereo system, etc. so if your friend needs to have the volume turned up way loud, this unit may not be the appropriate one. I love this unit.

So you can change the tone of it with the remote. Changing from Vocal to Rock to Classical to a few others. I don't think you can change the bass directly.

Volume up and down, bass up and down, treble up and down, and a power switch I believe

You should let the subs burn in for about a month and it will start to sound better. Twelves are really meant for low frequency bass and in my opinion sound best when playing frequencies below 150 hz. I set mine for 100 hz down. Eights are better for mid-bass frequencies, but my twelve got much better the older it got.
