Does anyone actually use the male voice for the Navi system. my wife obviuosly prefers it, but I stuck to the girl as the guy sounds :ghey:

ali_enterprises

No, I use the female Voice Navi too.

EggrollXpress61

The dudes voice is soo sooooothing though. I feel tired everytime I put it on, lol

CyberQban

I use the male voice.

mobilezen

When I was at the dealer, I tried the female voice...she sounds like a bitch.

Ken7

I've tried both and actually find the male voice is clearer. My wife and I tried both voices repeat the same things and there were times the female was a bit less clear.

GaleForce

I used the male voice. Its clearer and less annoying. Plus, I don't want a woman giving me directions. Its degrading and they're not to be trusted.

GunnmeTaLCURA04

i use the transexual voice...

gordon_gekko

I dont think we get a male voice in canada? anyone confirm that? i think it's female english or female french up here....i'm beginning to despise that bitch :fingerfawk:

NOX 3.2

I had female NAV in my 99TL and 00TL (sounded more oriental than the current one)
but I got sick of it...

now that I have a choice, I think the male voice sounds more professional and soothing....

Furio

LOL

jastor3759

there needs to be an annoyance setting with options like "tell me to turn off this road every 500 ft" or "tell me once to get off the freeway and STFU"

gets annoying when you're trying to listen to music.

Eduardo

This is soo funny!!!

Good one GaleForce!

firmie

The Males voice sounds like Hal from 2000. Dave? What are you doing Dave....

gldman

I turned the voice off it was annoying

Even my WIFE uses the girl....

Hmmmm ... We all may just found out an interesting little "nugget" about your wife.

I would like a firmware upgrade to the Navi that would give us an option to select "Automatic Navigation Voice ON/OFF".

I like the aural feedback when I give commands, so that I know that my "Radio 101.5 FM" command didn't get interpreted as "Radio 100.9 FM" for example. It should still give us the capability to press the "Directions" button on the Map display to get an audio cue on demand.

yankees07

Anyone else think there's gotta be a way to add a voice to the system? Any computer hackers out there that can tell us how? I would like my navi to curse and use poor english so it would be more realistic! Or maybe get some recordings from an NYC taxi driver! That would be cool.

With the keyless memory settings, can Memory Setting one have a different voice (male) vs. Memory Setting two (female)? In other words, can one person have the male and the other have female, and when their seat and climate settings change automatically, can the voice preference do the same?

thanks,

Infiniti had an option to change the voice tone... I wished TL had that.

I use Male voice cuz female one just seems like it's b!tchin' all the time.

-.- I get that enough already!!!!

tlguy99

Female voice ... all the time. I tried the male voice to humor my g/f, but then quickly changed it back.

714tman

Female Voice for now. However, I'm starting to notice that I mentally tune her out. (Must be a habit I picked up from being married.) I have missed so many street turns because she'll say something, and It goes in one ear and out the other.

I may need to change to the male voice.

jhan1102

narmeen

LOL!

1995hoo

I have it set to the female voice because having a female trying to tell you what to do seems normal (probably also why I sometimes ignore the directions it gives me if I don't like them).

DarkWraith33

I break it up...

Sometimes it's Bitchin Betty... Sometime it's Jeeves...

Every month or so I change...

I want HOMER'S voice!

mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm DONUT!!!

Or PETER from the Family Guy: "This is freakin' sweet!"

I think you may be able to take the DVD navigation disc, pop it into your computer, find the voice files, figure out how to play them, them using a microphone into your computer, modify them, rename the files with the same name (so the navi computer will recognize them), and write to a dual layer DVD. Could this work?

cliff

im sure acura has some sort of protected file that isnt just mp3 files or whatnot. im sure they use another program to open their own special files.

CFIMIKE

We tried both voices. Wife and I agree the male voice seems more professional & friendly, if that's possible.

JerseyBoy

My 7 year old daughter insisted on the male voice. My wife prefers it slightly. I'm indifferent, so it's Hal.

Locked my keys in the trunk the other day. Found myself saying, "Open the pod bay door, Hal. OPEN THE POD BAY DOOR, HAL!!!"

2k5_AcuraTL

well I'm gay so I used the male voice. hahaha

Lucky37

"When I was at the dealer, I tried the female voice...she sounds like a bitch. "

Haha, You sound like you know her...

crazymjb

At the dealer the Female sounded better. I dont like competition, I don want some guy giving me directions like I'm an Idiot. Id have to Punch Him. Permit in under a year, and if my dad lets me take the car which we dont have yet its gonna be female. BTW GO MARINES

annaie1

For next year, I recommend a female's voice in spanish!!!

acuraz88

Is there any way to change the female voice to a young sexy english girl's voice or a cutesy japanese school girl's voice? that would be badass..

The TL's female voice is about as interesting as a telemarketing call.

I miss the voice on my VeeDub Jetta Navi (imported and retrofitted)...
She had this wicked thick British accent. I called her Kitty.

Where do you turn the voice off in the setup menu?

jmbnova

Just go into setup and where you can adjust the volume, you can select "off" on the left side....

ililillilillilil
