Radio volume & speed compensation Q

[cgriffin]

Just got my Titan...do all of the Rockford Fosgate radios have crummy auto-volume settings, or is it just mine? When I get on the road, often, 1 is too loud; turn it down to 0, and it's off. To get the same parked volume, compared to 1 at hwy speeds, I have to set it to 7!

The system that adjusts the volume to compensate for road noise is obviously overcompensating. Is mine the only one? Is there an adjustment? Do I need to drag it to the dealer to fix it?

Thanks!

Try turning the SSV off.

why dont you just turn off the Speed sensitive volume then?

That system is what's causing nissan to replace all our radios. Just leave it off, call your dealer and make an appt.

There's a few other threads about the radio TSB.

Turn off the SSV and see if there is still a problem. If you have one of the newer Titan's the radio issues should be resolved, but SSV has nothing to do with the radio fade issue. My salesman told me that some people actually like the SSV, but ALOT of people hate it.

the ssv is not what is causing nissan to fix the radios. two totally separate systems. the reason most are having problems w/ their radios has to do w/ a tuner amplifier system. not the ssv.

Ehh, I'm one of the weirdos then that likes the SSV. I only like the low setting though, as the mid and high has me wishing I put it back on low.
