About the digital network

A vehicle, unlike the home audio, imposes several constraints upon the quality of repro-
duced sound, and have the following effects:
• Reflected sounds have strong effects on direct sounds because of the confined space and
complex shape within a vehicle. This disturbs frequency characteristics and significantly
reduces sound quality.
• The orientation of the sound image becomes unnatural, because speakers may not be
installed symmetrically to left and right of the listener, or because speakers are installed
in both the front and rear.
This system is equipped with a wide variety of functions that use DSP to create the ideal
sound quality and sound image in a vehicle and overcome these constraints on reverbera-
tion.
