Setting the Dynamic
Soundstage Organizer (DSO)
If your speakers are installed into the lower part
of the doors, the sound will come from below
and may not be clear.
The DSO (Dynamic Soundstage Organizer)
function creates a more ambient sound as if there
were speakers above the dashboard (virtual
speakers).
You can store the DSO setting for each source.
