Notes on making the settings

The following notes are intended as recom- mendations only. They do not necessarily reflect your own personal sound preferenc- es.

We recommend that you use a music CD you are familiar with to make the settings. The CD should include tracks with different instruments and vocals. Purely electronic music is not well suited to serve as a basis for making the settings because the origi- nal sounds cannot be determined.

Before you set the equaliser, set bass, tre- ble, balance and fader to “0”.

This setting is described in the Quick Refer- ence under 8 AUD.

Setting the equaliser

The acoustic characteristics of the car inte- rior affect the quality of the sound repro- duced in your vehicle to a much greater ex- tent than the speakers.

Position, installation and the rear volumes of, for example, the door or rear window shelf all play an important role.

Even the sound produced by well selected and installed speakers can be affected neg- atively by resonance frequencies in the ve- hicle interior.

As a result, the bass sounds may be lost or reverberate, the mid-range tones sound too overpowering and music instruments or voices may be distorted or the total sound quality may be completely lifeless.

The overall sound quality can be greatly enhanced if certain frequencies are sup- pressed or boosted.
