How to Adjust the Equalizer of Car Audio?
2 Answers
To adjust the equalizer of car audio, follow these steps: Press the HOME button on the central control screen, select the audio option, then click the MENU function key. At this point, you will see the sound quality adjustment options at the bottom of the multimedia central control screen. Select and enter the sound quality adjustment options to adjust the equalizer, such as bass, midrange, and treble settings, sound balance, and the volume-speed linkage function. Proper adjustment of the equalizer can enhance the audio effect and listening experience to some extent. Adjusting it as "bass +2 notches, midrange fully open, treble +3 notches" can effectively improve the audio quality. The functions of the car audio equalizer include: 1. Compensating for the defects of the audio source and equipment; 2. Improving the overall tone of the music and artificially creating some coloration.
When I first bought my car, I used to obsess over adjusting the equalizer too. Later, I developed my own method. Now, I start by selecting a suitable preset mode—for example, using the rock mode for pop music, which gives enough bass. Then, I make slight adjustments: if I want clearer vocals, I push the treble up two notches, tweaking frequencies above 1kHz; for electronic music, I add more bass but never exceed three notches to avoid booming. Once, a friend cranked the midrange too high, making vocals harsh, so be cautious around 500Hz. I usually save three settings: a balanced mode for commuting, heavy bass for weekend trips, and soft vocals for picking up the kids. The key is to experiment a few times—pulling over and adjusting slowly works best.
