Canada, eh?
So after installing my upgraded components in the front and rear with an amp, I've been notified that my Civic has a bass "roll-off" feature.
With this setup, the head unit reduces the amount of bass fed to the speakers in an attempt to reduce/remove any additional stress/fatigue on the stock speakers.
Why Does My Factory Honda Audio Sound So Bad? (sounddepotandperformance.com)
In many articles online, I've read of adding a "signal processor" to essentially add back the bass.
Since I'm not really pleased with the idea of adding more equipment (and all associated wiring etc.), I'd rather skip this step.

I did a little more digging and found this video:


Since it's applied to the radio, I was hoping that the Civic would have a similar screen.
Sadly, I didn't find anything that allows you to disable a "PS Setting".

I'm thinking that since the stock radio is essentially a computer with this activated, there's gotta be a way to disable/adjust this setting.
It would certainly help with my audio issues. Maybe in a later software version?

thank you
