I have a tC and I just now found out about the SSP thing. MY LIFE HAS BEEN SAVED!!!! REPENT!!!!!

 

did a manual come with the car?

 

i think just curiousity alone made me push it.

 

JUST now?

how have you lived all this time?!

 

I don't know... personally I don't like the xB setting. Sounds too... I don't know the word, but it just sounds like everything is too unbalanced. Sort of like a bass-heavy, low quality sound system.

I guess that works for certain music types, but I'm not a big fan. Heck, I even have problems dealing with SRT! I usually have to turn it off

 

well.... a brand new aftermarket HU will rid you of all that...

some people just don't realize how great the stock speakers are.

 

My stock HU sounded better than my current Kenwood DPX701. But that's probably because I don't know how to adjust ALL the settings.

Some new speakers and a sub will definitely change that though. I hate minimum wage.

 

Whenever I put it back on tC I try and think how I lived.....when i showed my friend how my car sounds now he swore that I got subs

 

xA is by far the best in my opinion

 

I guess I am crazy then! I think tC with SRT off, bass at 2 and treble at 1 sounds best! :D

 

i had mine at xb feel with my bass at -3 (i had a sub) and treble at +5 with srt on. it sounded great... then again i was pushing 400w into a 200w sub at the time tooo.. ahahha

if you think that sounds good and cool.. wait till you go after market :D

 

what the heck is the SRT?

 

Pioneer's own Sound ReTouching. basically since when you rip a cd to mp3 it loses some of its CD quality sound fidelity. with SRT, it brings up the EQ to make it sound like "the way it should"... it just brings up the EQ in the nutshell..lol

 

XA is the way to go, with my 10" sub it makes the low lows way to loud, the XA setting is best for SQ. XB=to bassy with a sub.

 

I new about the function but didn't try it till this afternoon... I like that xA setting
