I’ve had my Macan for a year now, and still havent figured out my prefered settings for the Bose audio system. Drives me bonkers!
Other then swapping everything out to upgraded system, anyone found a good balance? Care to share your settings?
Bose audio settings
Can you remind us of the year of your car.
The Bose system changed at the same time as the standard audio changed, if memory is right that was when the PCM update in mid 2016 happened.
I had to tweak the Bose in my 2015 build SD whereas as it came is great with my Sept 2016 build

Mine was built and delivered June 2017. So upgraded system like yours I assume? PCM has the flush screen.Col Lamb wrote: ↑Mon Jun 25, 2018 8:20 pm Can you remind us of the year of your car.

Bose in the 911 is perfect but I think the OPC configured it before delivery. In the Macan it was less than perfect on delivery and, trying to remember settings, it was something like:
Linear off | surround on | tweak fader towards the rear | treble up a notch | bass down a notch
Anyway something like that but might have been linear on and surround off [emoji15]

I think you are spot on if my old grey matter remembers the Bose in my 2015 SD correctlyVanB wrote: ↑Mon Jun 25, 2018 8:59 pm Bose in the 911 is perfect but I think the OPC configured it before delivery.

All bass / treble set flat, ‘direct sound’ setting ticked (makes the most difference).
Macan GTS: PH1UFLL8

My wife's previous 2014 Macan S had Bose but we both think that the Bose in the new GTS is better. I haven't really needed to tweak anything. I think the sound is pretty good. I have surround switched off and that's about it. However the media is not on a lot as the GTS is just run in now and I would rather listen to the sports exhaust!
