3.1. Overview
The speaker systems in the F10 are offered in two levels:
- HiFi system = HiFi loudspeaker system (standard equipment)
- Top HiFi system = HiFi system Professional (option 677).
The HiFi system standard equipment on all F10 models.
The HiFi system is equipped with an eight-channel amplifier with digital equalizer. However, only seven of the eight channels are used in the HiFi system.
The bass speakers are located under the front seats. They are coupled to the side sills to increases the resonance volume necessary for bass reproduction.
The head-units CIC and Champ 2 can be combined with any of the amplifier/speaker systems available.
The HiFi system and Top-HiFi systems feature separate speakers for the treble and mid-range frequencies.
Even though the diameters of the speakers in the HiFi and Top HiFi System Professional are the same, there are differences in the performance of the speakers. This is achieved by the use of different materials for the diaphragms, coils and magnets
The Top HiFi system supports playback of multichannel formats. Multichannel audio formats can be played back with the player in the CIC or with the 6x DVD changer.
The HiFi system has twelve speakers while the Top-HiFi system has 16 speakers each with different auxiliary amplifiers.
