Wait a minute DISPLAY and Steering Wheel Interface you say??? Does that
mean the display from the HU will be displayed somewhere else in the car???
I'm from North America so I've obviously never seen those adapters or had
experience with them (none of those cars makes are sold in Canada), but the
thought of having the DISPLAY part work is interesting.
If those adapters work on Sony UniLink heads (via the UniLink connection)
then they would probably work on the C90 (of course I can't be sure or
anything).
Really, the display information simply comes from the UniLink connection and
manufacturers could use this for something. For instance we all know there
are adapters for Sony RM-4XS/2XS to GM cars with steering controls but
wouldn't it be neat if they could make it work with the HUD in some GM cars
as well? Unfortunately no company has done this here and I doubt any will,
but I must say that it is impressive if companies have done that overseas.

Really? I didn't know the C90 was different in this respect (from every
other UniLink head). Sorry about my post with the incorrect info (which
incidentally would work on almost every other UniLink HU)...

Yeah I find that the factory settings for the Front L and Front R listening
positions are a bit odd. They are easily tweaked in the setup menu though.
Usually since I have a passenger, I too just leave it on Front which does,
as Randy said, make a large difference. The thing that I find is dumb is
that the 210EQ was clearly designed for Japan (and the UK and anywhere else
cars have Right-Hand-Drive). You always have to go through "Front R" before
"Front L" which is backwards for anywhere where cars have the steering wheel
on the left hand side of the car! They could have easily changed this for
NA units I think.
>The one thing I miss on my XDP-4000x is the instantly

Yeah when I first got my 210EQ I was like "what's the point of these they
are just essentially two equaliser bands not grouped with the EQ settings".
But I soon found out that with the hassle of going to the EQ settings and
then going through them all just to find one setting the Treble and Bass
controls are a welcome addition. The only thing that I wish they would have
done was make the EQ so you could PICK which bands you wanted for your
"quick access" Treble and Bass items. The fact that they are fixed kind of
annoys me.
Oh, sorry about the late reply to this--I was running on a dial-up
connection for the last two months or so (just moved in May) and I was just
too annoyed with the slow speed and taking up the phone line to stay online
for very long at a time...

Randy, that is a very nice install you have there! I don't mean to be picky
but I did notice a small mistake in your caption description of the 4000X...
The 4000X actually has 4 D/A Converters (one per output pair) not 8 (or
16?) like the caption mentions. They are also made by Crystal
Semiconductor, not Burr-Brown. Sorry if I seem like I'm nitpicking. The
page is very nicely setup though. I hope those changers don't mind those
subs being right in front of them! :)
