IMPRINT Operation
(Optional)
Alpine introduces IMPRINT - the world's first technology that
thoroughly eliminates in-car acoustic problems that normally degrade
sound quality, which enables us to experience music the way the artist
intended.
When the IMPRINT audio processor (PXA-H100) (sold separately) is
connected to this unit, MultEQ and the following sound adjustment can
be performed.
The Parking Brake must be engaged to access the IMPRINT
mode screen. Otherwise, some functions are not adjustable.

Changing MultEQ mode

MultEQ, developed by Audyssey Labs, automatically corrects the audio
for the listening environment. The system is optimized for selected
positions in the vehicle. To accomplish this, MultEQ must take
measurements of the vehicles response characteristics. For details on the
set up procedure, consult your authorized Alpine dealer.
