This should REALLY be a Sticky.

Seems like nearly everyone has this issue.

My Bespoke system had it set to FR-S from the factory (that or the dealer did it).

Guess I found something my dealer did right. The stock unit in mine was set to FR-S.

My FR-S was delivered without the Panasonic head and when I returned to get it installed: The tech said there was no model preset; that each Scion model has a radio developed uniquely for that single application. I commented that he just missed a meeting, that's all, and went through the setup. He gave me a stupid, dirty look and went away mad (anyway). It's a small (but sad) thing to ruin someone's day, but I'm thinking he was just "covering" something embarrassing for him. My sales agent lhfao afterward.

This is a repost from another thread, but my experiences have been different.

I set it on the FR-S the first day I got the car, and was disappointed in the audio. I tried the tC setting today, and it sounds so much better... What does this setting actually do anyway? I have a BeSpoke head unit by the way.
