Auto EQ — AVIC411 Forum Archive

Posted Apr 10, 2011 · 14:34 UTC#1

I got the avic z130 installed a few days ago and i see the auto eq and it wont let me use it. I know its because i need a second mic or something. My question is how do I gain functionality of this feature and has anyone used it. Is it good or is it not worth making it functional? Any feedback is appreciated.

I wanted to buy the pioneer mic but it is out of stock everywhere. I decided to improvise and used the Audyssey mic from my Onkyo receiver even though Audyssey discourages such practce as each mic is customed for specific sound system. The new Auto-eq curves sound much better with better depth overall. That will do the job for now until I can find a pioneer mic.

Can you export your auto EQ setting to the SD card if you want to retrieve them?

Is the CD-MC20 the mic we need for auto eq? I just ordered one from Online Car Stereo.

Where do you connect the CD-MC20 on the Z130BT?

Do you connect it to the USB cable jack?

What does your manual tell you?

I also used the mic that came with my Sony HTIB and it did wonders to the sound quality. It sounds pretty awesome after the auto EQ was done. I do not believe it matters if you used Sony vs Pioneer mic as long as you use calibration mic.
