sound quality for all seating locations.

DRIVER: This setting gives the driver the best sound
quality.

SPACIOUS: This setting makes the listening space
seem larger.

The radio can save separate AUTO EQ settings for
each preset and source.

The Bose system will automatically adjust the
equalization to compensate for the change in acoustics
when the convertible top is down. You will hear a
momentary mute when the equalization switches just at
the end of the top down cycle and just at the beginning
of the top up cycle.
