I have the Alpine system in mine. There is a setting called POS on the stereo (when a cassette is in anyways), you can choose LEFT or RIGHT. Does this do what I think it does and set the output to the speakers for better sound verse in factory setting? I notice that when set on LEFT the sound sounds better, more even when playing some tunes through the cassette adapter I use to listen to music from my phone.

 

So we're talking about the POS setting that appears as we punch through each item after hitting the Mode button, correct?

It is designed to optimize sound quality for just the left seat (the "Ayn Rand" setting) , all seats (the "Karl Marx" setting), or just the right seat (the "Mother Theresa" setting).

Not sure how exactly this is done ... must be more than volume since there is a separate balance setting. Time delay? Ambiance?

 

Yes that is what I am talking about.

 

Dennis,

Where's the "I'm half-deaf from blasting Deep Purple for the past 45 years" setting?

 

VOLUME dial. he he he he

 

Hey, Jon

I'm pretty sure this is the same as the Meatloaf / Joe Cocker / Bad Company setting I've been using for about the same length of time.

Traveling music all.

 

Yes, its a time delay, so the sound arrives from both channels at the same time at the selected position.

To the OP: Its explained in the audio manual which can be downloaded by following the links in the How To sticky at the top of the page.

 

Dennis,

You took the words right outta my mouth....

Guess I'll have to cry me a river....

 

Keep in mind if you perform a hard reset what ever settings you have made will need to be re-inputted after the battery is reconnected. I'd done a number of items where I disconnect the battery recently (always do a reset) and find myself resetting these. I prefer the +L POS

 

Yeah, what you said. After which you can settle in and Rock Steady ...
