The dealer confirmed this, and replaced radio unit, amplifiers, and even the speakers. No succes.

Then the Volvo owner found on an internet forum that the radio had a build-in equalizer, which can NOT be accessed on the cheaper Volvo's. By adjusting a simple internal setting, his car has now a equalizer and a good sound.

Why this story?

I hope the Alfa ICS has the same hidden feature.
Does anybody know?

Mine has a DSP and therefore an equalizer which can be adjusted behind the audio button.
