Selecting the sound position
— My Best sound Position (MBP)
When you drive without passengers, you can 
enjoy the most comfortable sound environment 
with “My Best sound Position.”
“My Best sound Position” has two presets, which 
adjust the sound level of balance and fader. You 
can select one very easily with the MBP button.
Press
(MBP)
repeatedly for the desired
listening position.
The mode of “My Best sound Position” is 
shown in the display in order of the table.
After one second, the display goes back to the 
normal playback mode.
If you want to adjust the sound level of 
balance and fader more precisely, you can do 
it using the (SOUND) button (see “Adjusting 
the sound characteristics” on page 17).
Notes
• When the BAL (balance) or FAD (fader) in “Adjusting 
the sound characteristics” (page 17) is adjusted, the 
MBP setting returns to OFF.
• When MBP is set to OFF, the BAL and FAD setting is
activated.
Boosting the bass sound
— D-bass
You can enjoy a clear and powerful bass sound. 
The D-bass function boosts the low frequency 
signal and high frequency signal with a sharper 
curve than conventional bass boost.
You can hear the bass line more clearly even 
while the vocal volume remains the same. You 
can emphasize and adjust the bass sound easily 
with the D-BASS button.
Adjusting the bass curve
Press
(D-BASS)
repeatedly to select
the desired bass curve.
As the D-BASS number increases so does the 
effect.
Note
The bass sound may distort at same volume. If the 
bass sound distorts, select less effective bass curve.
