Click the "HOME" button on the center console screen - select "Audio" - click the "MENU" function button, then choose and enter the sound quality adjustment options. Here is some information about the 10th-generation Civic's audio system: Brand: Honda OEM audio system. Precautions: Pay attention to the host unit's operating parameters, particularly the output power index changes after impedance variations. High-quality amplification equipment will experience significant output power increases when impedance drops, sometimes by several times. The amplifier's power rating should be higher than the speaker's indicated power. If the amplifier's power is insufficient, prolonged high-power output usage may lead to burnout, poor sound quality, distortion, and other malfunctions.
Adjusting the audio in the 10th-gen Civic is actually quite user-friendly, and I often fine-tune it while driving to better suit my taste. Once seated in the driver's seat, start with the volume buttons on the left side of the steering wheel—just a light press adjusts the level, which is especially handy for safe operation at high speeds. Then, on the center touchscreen, tap into the sound settings menu where you can tweak bass and treble intensity; I personally prefer slightly higher bass for a more rhythmic feel. Balance and fade adjustments are also crucial—use the screen to slide and adjust the volume between front and rear speakers, ensuring passengers in the back can hear clearly. If connected via Bluetooth or AUX, remember to check the phone’s volume matching to avoid sound being too low or distorted. Some models even offer preset modes like Rock or Jazz for one-touch convenience. Overall, regular speaker cleaning and software updates help prevent static and maintain crisp audio quality.
