Was on a long drive yesterday and i was giving the stereo a blast, i seemed to notice that when i drove faster the music seemed to get louder and when i was stopped at traffic lights the music seemed quieter.
not sure if it was me imaging things but has anyone else had this happen to them.

I don's remember it being a feature with the stereo.

It is a feature with the stereo.. "svcd" I think it's called it can be activated via the set up menu although a previous thread on here concluded it wasn't as effective as we would like... Sounds like it works for you  :razz:

If I find the previous thread I'll edit this with a link...

Ahhh i did see something like that in the options, i turned it on wondering what it was and left it on.

Clock up another great feature of the i30.

It's called SDVC and think the dvc bit stands for Dynamic volume control...(or something like that  :wink:)

nah I've had it in a couple of cars and when I do notice it it just annoys me. It seems to me to be one of those ideas that's better in theory than in practice.  :rolleyes:

I always turn it OFF.

But whatever makes you happy.  :D
