Anyone found any combination of settings that gives a reasonable sound from the Bose system. Have tried numerous settings and they all sound awful. Maybe best keeping turned off and just enjoying the engine

Coverage and how to read this overview
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Certainly turn off the Surround setting, it makes the sound too boomy and affects the other sound controls for bass and treble. I think there’s another setting you can have, Sound Pilot ? (i’m going back to my 997 here for reference) and that needs to be close to neutral or even on a negative setting. It also depends on what you’re listening to, radio is difficult to get right whereas Carplay is much more flexible and of course the type of music matters to.
