JBL EQUIPMENT


The HiFi system is a 5.1 system developed jointly by PSA and JBL.

4 two-way speaker kits, separated by an active fi lter, are fi tted at front and
rear.
These are based on a fabric dome tweeter delivering stable and balanced
treble reproduction and a 50W RMS neodymium magnet inverted motor
medium-woofer possessing a very high output of bass frequencies.
The central line in the dashboard improves reproduction of the musical
scene, putting the listener in a situation that realistically reproduces the
original musical recording.
The bass unit located in the boot carries a 150 W triple-coil true
subwoofer in an optimised space, giving depth and impact to the bass
ranges.
This set of speakers is controlled by a 10-way 500 W RMS 2 ohm
amplifi er, using advanced surround sound and sound distribution
handling, so as to deliver optimum performance both for the driver and for
the passengers in the vehicle.

AUDIO SETTINGS



They are accessible by a long press on
RADIO
or MUSIC
or from the " FM/AM
band
" or " MEDIA
" menus.



- " Equalizer
" (choice of 6 musical ambiences)

- " Bass
"

- " Treble

- " Loudness

The audio settings ( Equalizer
, Bass
, Treble
and Loudness
) are
different and independent for each sound source.
The settings for distribution and balance are common to all sources.
The distribution (or spatialisation using the Arkamys© system) of
sound is an audio process that allows the audio quality to be adapted
to the number of listeners in the vehicle.

Arkamys
©: in a vehicle, the sound quality suffers from the physical
constraints imposed by the safety standards and the requirement to
optimise the space available in the passenger compartment. Speakers
are fi tted in the doors, which can result for the driver and passenger in
the sound being too one-sided, either "all on the right" or "all on the left".
The Arkamys© software installed in your audio system processes the
digital signal from the media players (radio, CD, MP3, ...) and recreates
a natural musical scene, with harmonious placement of instruments and
voices in the space facing passengers, at the height of the windscreen.
