2017 2SS- Bose Tone Controls- Surround Sound

I recently noticed I have a “Surround Sound” option on my tone controls that was not there prior. It does not let me adjust the levels. Is this an automatic update or? It would be nice to use.

Looking at those settings it will sound like trash and the roll off will be god awful. I know the Bose in my 2018 truck will have terrible out put setting the bass that high.

Ahhhh, the much derided "smiley face" EQ pattern. Not my bag either, but to each his own.

I'll have to look around for updates on my 2017. I would not mind having a matrixed surround mode to play with.

yes, can someone provide a refresher on doing this? I did it once before. I think you have to go into the wifi menu and make sure the car is actually connected to a network. I did it through home wifi in my garage, but phone hotspot and the built-in 4G are also options.

Lol it probably will sound like surround trash ��. It’s weird I’m unable to adjust the setting. I’ll try the YouTube link, thanks !
