I just did this the other day by accident switching from Pandora to Sirius.. Scared the crap out of me, that will never happen again..

To answer the OP's question;

Sub +3
Base +3
Treble +4
Fader -1 or -2

You read my mind. That’s what I was looking for. Have that issue in my wife’s Q5 and usually have it under control but when I forget to turn down the volume I instantly regret it!

I've got a Sportback so the bass is a little lacking compared to a coupe.

Sub +6
Bass +3
Treble +3
Fader 0
I have it set to "Front" in the settings. Found this to sound the best and have the best bass response vs. setting to "All" or "Rear."
I have the Surround set about 1/2 way and the effect at "Medium."

Thanks!
The system remembers these settings for each input. I just ended up with different settings because I guess the way FM and XM signals are shaped compared to lossless FLAC on SD card which is CD quality without any emphasis on any frequencies.

3D effect high
Surround effect 0

I’ve found it’s important to get your ears just below the high mounted tweeters.
