Turn on the head unit and play some high-fidelity vocal tracks or bass-heavy discs, then adjust the volume to slightly over half or 3/5 of the maximum. Gradually increase the head unit volume until it is slightly louder than normal listening levels. Set the rear sound field to HP mode and adjust the CROSSOVER (cutoff frequency) to around 150HZ.

I really enjoy listening to music while driving, so I've done quite a bit of research on the audio tuning of the Haval M6 PLUS. You can start adjusting it by finding the sound options in the settings on the central control screen. There's a 7-band equalizer that I often use: for pop music, I increase the 80Hz bass to 4 bars, reduce the 200Hz mid-bass by 1 bar to make vocals stand out, set the 1kHz midrange to 5 bars for clear instrumentals, and boost the 12kHz treble by 3 bars to enhance detail. Remember to set the soundstage positioning to the front center position for the most comfortable listening experience while driving. Turn on the bass boost but don't exceed +3, or it will sound muffled. For testing, I use the intro of Tsai Chin's "Ferry" and adjust until the drum sounds deep without overpowering the vocals. Spending five minutes fine-tuning in the parking lot before refueling can significantly improve the audio quality.

Last week, I helped my friend adjust the audio system in his Haval M6 PLUS and discovered several practical tips. First, reset to default settings before making adjustments for more accurate results. Focus on the mid-range frequencies in the equalizer—boosting 1kHz to +4 enhances vocal clarity. Keep the treble below +3 to avoid ear fatigue during long drives. Different audio sources require distinct settings: turn off surround sound for a more natural radio experience, but enable virtual surround when playing music via Bluetooth. Sudden music ducking during navigation announcements can be annoying; simply lower the navigation prompt volume separately in system settings. My friend loves bass, but I recommend keeping it below +4 to prevent trunk cover resonance. Test the settings with Jay Chou's "Mojito"—if the bassline in the intro sounds full yet clear, you've nailed it.

Adjusting the audio system on the Haval M6 PLUS is quite straightforward. Press and hold the VOICE button on the steering wheel and say "Open sound settings" to access the menu. The easiest way is to directly apply the preset modes: Pop mode delivers strong bass, ideal for electronic music; Voice mode emphasizes vocals, perfect for storytelling; Classical mode offers a wide soundstage but weaker bass. For custom settings, adjusting the three-band EQ is sufficient: Bass +3 for powerful DJ effects, Midrange +2 for clarity, and Treble +1 to prevent harshness. It's recommended to keep the Super Bass switch always on, otherwise the bass may sound hollow. Remember to set the sound positioning to the front row for the best listening experience in the driver's seat. For testing, use the intro of "Hotel California" – if you can clearly hear the shaker, it means the treble is properly adjusted.
