Center option

Hello,

I was playing around with my audio options and saw that you can adjust something called " center" . I am not sure what that does , if anyone has a clue please let me know.

Also , I have a 04; ABP TL. I am looking to buy the center grille mesh , honeycomb style like in the new ones and for the bumper grille , both sides. On http://www.oemacuraparts.com, it is too complicated to find. If anyone can send me the link to the parts i should get it would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance.

Norair

Norair, that's the adjustment for your center channel speaker in the front dash.

For most good quality audio, on a bone stock system, I usually have mine set:

Bass = 0 to +3
Treble = Bass setting +2 more
Balance = 0
Fade = 0 to -2
Center = -2 to +2
SubWoofer = 0 to +3


You should set yours so it sounds good to you. I find the Center is a good way to tweak the Fade forward or back slightly and will change that before adjusitng the fader.

Treble, I need a little more because, back in the old days, we didn't wear ear plugs to Who, Deep Purple and Iron Maiden concerts.

the center speaker on the dash.

my set-up: balance and fade zeroed out, everything else cranked to +6 for me.

getting to a point though to where the bass still doesn't hit hard enough. been looking at aftermarket options on the sub.

The center speaker will be used when your Navi gives you directions, provided if you have Navi. Also, if you listen to DVD-A's, that's when you'll utilize the center speaker the most.
