About Sound Adjustment Mode
The system has several features that allow you to adjust the acoustic characteristics inside the cabin.
Item
PEQ
Three bands, frequency level, and Q curve can be adjusted.
(Parametric EQ)
Position
Preset speaker level and balance for each seat can be selected.
(Position selector)
X-OVER
Allocate specified frequency bands to each speaker for improved sound
integration.
(Cross over)
Non-F phase
Change phase of the sub-woofer.
(Non-fader phase)
About parametric EQ
A variety of materials are used inside a vehicle to manufacture the seats and windows, and because
these materials absorb and reflect sound in different ways, the parametric equalizer lets you adjust
the peaks and dips of the frequency characteristics inside the vehicle to compensate for this.
An "equalizer" is a function that corrects these peaks and dips in order to flatten the frequency
characteristics. However with a normal graphic equalizer, the median frequency and the Q
(sharpness and band width) are fixed, so that when neighboring bands are corrected, there is a limit
to the amount by which distortion in the peak and dip characteristics can be corrected. A "parametric
equalizer" lets you adjust the median frequency, Q (sharpness and band width) and gain to variable
levels, so that you can make fine adjustments to spot areas of the frequency band.
[Parametric equalizer characteristics]
1. Median frequency can be varied.
2. Gain can be varied.
