cheers
The input from the CD in terms of signal strength is much higher than from any aux unit and then the difference in dB output ...

No there is no reason why this should happen ... Both EQ's work independantly and doesnt cancel each other ... The signal input to the Headunit with the equalised due to the ipod EQ and then the head unit EQ will tweak this initially EQ's signal to the amp or speakers .. Its better to fiddle with one EQ other than playing with 2 of them... Gets very complicated ... You should use the EQ which has more Freq. bands as u will have better control on the sound... Let consider that the EQ on the ipod has 8 freq band control and the one on the HU is 12 band then U should keep the EQ on the ipod flat and then play around with your HU's EQ ...
Hope this answers your query ...
