I found this when I was driving one day after I burned a CD.

If you burn a CD in Windows Media Player (I think the one just before version 9) you can get a lot more quality out of your pioneer radio.

1. Go to Windows Media Player

2. Select your songs you want to copy to your CD-R/RW

3. Under the "Burn" tab section in the top right corner select "HighMat" format. Note: in this type of format you can burn more than 40 tracks.

4. Pop the CD-R/RW into your Scion cd player

5. Push the button where you control your bass, tremble, etc. until you find something that says "SRT". Note: usually it will say SRT:OFF to turn it on just turn your control button to the right.

Notice the difference?

 

ok... now do you know why it happens or what it (SRT) does..?

 

i dont know why it happens, but what is does is allow more bass out of your speakers. you can feel it.

 

SRT = Sound Retouch Technology.... it doesn't matter how you burn your mp3s or wmas... it expands the compression to provide CD playback quality..... you'll get that bass back...

it's in the manual for the stereo... alot of people who read knows about it already.

here's a question for ya.. what car type is your SSP in..?

 

^^ mines in xA for fidelity. :D

 

yea it does that for any burned disk. nifty little feature the one time i used the CD player.

and my tC is in xA feel, its the best setting for the tC, IMO.

 

^ haha seriously. .. well ok the like 2 months i had the stock deck. lol.. but it was purty nice with the mp3s

 

xA feel is the best setting, IMO too. :D

 

hm i like the xB setting. it feels more bassy IMO

 

same here as rivas. i had an LOC to my sub, i really like xB Feel also.

 

i dont see the xa or xb option when i press the srt button
can you please explain
i have the ipod headunit

 

press and hold ssp until the car type comes up

 

thanks i will try that later
any other radio tricks???
i know about the custom message for the start up

 

i got back and forth between the xA and the xB setting. xB is a bit more bassy than the xA setting. to me, the xA setting sounds more clear all around.
