7. Navodila za uporabo
Once installed, you can fine-tune the bass enhancement to your preference:

- Adjusting the Sweep Control: Start by setting the 'Sweep' control to the lowest frequency (e.g., 35Hz). Play music with prominent bass. Gradually increase the 'Sweep' frequency until you hear the desired bass restoration and enhancement. This control helps target the specific frequency range where bass notes are most lacking or desired.
- Adjusting the Wide Control: Once the 'Sweep' frequency is set, adjust the 'Wide' control. Turning it clockwise will broaden the frequency range affected by the bass enhancement, making the bass sound fuller and more spread out. Turning it counter-clockwise will narrow the affected range, resulting in a more focused and punchy bass.
- Using the Remote Bass Control: Use the dash-mounted remote knob to adjust the overall intensity of the enhanced bass output. This allows for on-the-fly adjustments based on music genre or personal preference without needing to access the main unit.
Experiment with these controls to find the optimal settings for your vehicle's acoustics and your personal listening taste.
