I have a Bose package, and I have searched through all the settings to adjust the sound in the car but without any results. When I switch to sound only from the front, the audio sounds good. However, when I switch only to the rear speakers, the sound is very weak and muffled. The subwoofer in the trunk is working, but it's not producing the bass that's expected. Please share how it is for you.

Bose? What Ariya trim do you have?

He's in EU. They had that option available on lower trims than we did here in the states. For @onir: We haven't had any Bose-equipped deliveries in the states yet. Not sure about Canada. There are some other EU/UK folk here though that may be able to help.

thank you

My Evolve+ in Canada has the Bose setup. Haven’t played with the sound at all, though.

My 2017 Leaf has the Bose system that is only adequate at best. My 2012 F 150 is equipped with a Sony sound system that is far superior. Bose has a reputation that is undeserved when it comes to automotive sound systems.

Did you get to the equalizer settings? I don't how on the Ariya; but, they are there somewhere . When all else fails, read the manual...

I agree that the Bose is disappointing. Here’s my equaliser attempt at getting a balanced sound.

The last car was a Ford Kuga/Escape PHEV with B&O. Ariya Bose is is particularly lacking in low bass. Probably not helped that the subwoofer is under two layers of flooring in the boot/trunk.

Turn your treble down to about 30%, instead of near 100. You won't hear much bass the way you have it now. As it is, you are adjusting the volumn based on too much treble.

 

[ScottishAriya]

The issue isn’t the quantity of bass. It’s the lack of SPL below about 80Hz. High frequency is also dull without that significant EQ lift. I does look drastic but it’s the closest to a flat response I can get.

I guess it’s the BOSE house sound , “No highs , now lows, that’s BOSE”

 

[Ridera]

If it were me, I'd get a sound meter to see what's actually the sound level SPL versus frequency.

What's sad is, they have yet to come up with a low current amp.. so there's no way to throw in a True Sub and computer adjust the sound curve.
That's rough when you have the means.. and nobody wants to take your money..
