Volvo XC90: Audio, media and internet / Sound settings
Sound reproduction quality is preset but can also be adjusted.
The system's volume is normally adjusted using the volume control below the center
display or the right-side steering wheel keypad. This applies, for example, when
playing music or the radio or during phone calls and active traffic messages.
Sound reproduction
The audio system is precalibrated using digital signal processing. This calibration
takes into account speakers, amplifiers, passenger compartment acoustics, listener
position, etc. for each combination of vehicle model and audio system. There is
also a dynamic calibration that takes into account the volume control setting and
the vehicle's speed.
