Gen 3 Prius (Audio/Electronics) :: JBL - Front Gets Most Of The Sound And Back Gets Only Little
Mar 28, 2016
I'm wondering if this applies to all of you with JBL with navi system. My system's fader shows that it is set right in the middle between the front and back but it seems the front gets most of the sound and the back gets only a little until I move the cursor back a couple of notches. My parents have the same 2010 JBL with navi and theirs is the same thing. Is this normal or am I going crazy? If it is normal, why?

So I have the JBL 8 speaker system on my 2010 Prius with the Navi. The sound really seems to be all coming from the front. I have the fade adjusted in the center correctly, as well as left/right centered. I guess I was expecting a more dynamic sound that filled the car. I have to say I am not overly impressed with the sound quality.

I have been experiencing loud popping and static/feedback sound from my front left speaker or tweeter. I replaced the jbl speaker with used jbl speaker. But it seems that my tweeter is done for as well. No sound comes out of it. Is it best just to replace it with a new jbl tweeter or are there better options that fit with not a lot of work.

I can receive messages and the HDD unit reads back the messages from my iPHONE. But when I hit reply and pick a preformatted text like " I am driving. Will call later" and hit SEND, it gives me an error. I have not so far been able to reply to any incoming messages.

Sometimes I just leave my iPod plugged in to the usb port when I turn off and leave the car. When I come back, the music won't start playing until I unplug it and plug it back in.. Is this a problem? Or am I just not supposed to leave it plugged in? It seems like a hassle to have to take it out every single time I leave the vehicle...
Also, is the sound quality a little choppy for anyone else using USB connection w/ an iPod? I'm using a 3rd gen iPod touch, and I'm pretty sure its software is up to date. Bluetooth sounds amazing, but I like using USB because I can see the song title/playlists and all that good stuff.

On my UK Prius with Nav (uses HDD for Nav System, and includes a DVD / CD reader too), I put my music in MP3 format on a DVD-RW for convenience.
When I turn off the audio by hitting the audio power button, and then turn it back on later the music resumes from a previous point. How far it goes back seems to vary enormously from 10 seconds to 10 minutes (so doubt it goes back by X KBytes for example).
How this is determined, or if I can alter it in some way?

Connected a portable XM receiver and it has power and is receiving a signal, but the only thing not working is sound. Radio says everything is connected, but no sound.

on my sub amp the wire out got hooked up my wires to my car speakers while replacing the battery and it went boom and there was a smell of burnt electrical. Now I don't have any sound coming out all in my car. I'm trying to figure out if it is a fuse problem or if I blew out all of my speakers, but before this happened I disconnected the center speaker by the screen because I wanted a more stereo sound in my car. I reattached the center speaker recently and still no sound. I looked at the fuses underneath the steering wheel and I couldn't find any blown fuses.

I've tried several times to listen to the XM/Sirius service without trying to cringe, but it's darn near impossible. It feels like I'm listening to an MP3 with a 64k bitrate. Is this normal?
The bass is fine, the highs are ok, but the midrange just sounds horrible. How to fix?

I have a 2012 Prius V and the rear speaker(s) hardly put out any sound. When I balance the system to get more output in the rear, I get hardly any sound in the frount. Is there an individual speaker adjustment? Is this normal or do I have defective speaker(s)?

I have a 2006 Prius with Nav/JBL audio. For nearly 8 months, my stereo has been cutting in/out intermittently. When it cuts out, it has the following effects: lights on the stereo itself dim almost entirely, and: AM - completely silent; FM - I hear fuzz; CD - music plays, but volume is significantly cut and sound is heavily distorted (particularly bass frequencies); AUX - acts the same as CD.
I've confirmed that the fuses are fine. Assuming it will fix my problem, I would like to replace the stereo with a new double-din deck, but I am not sure how to tell whether I am dealing with a stereo deck issue or a amplifier issue. Given the dimming of the lights, my guess is that it is the stereo itself and not the amp - I would prefer not to have to mess with replacing the amp.
Whether this sounds like a stereo deck problem vs an amplifier issue?

A month ago I bought a 2004 Prius with navigation and bluetooth. I paired it succesfully with my Google/LG Nexus 4 (Android 4.4.2). Now when I press the "call"-button on my steering wheel and enter a number, my phone dials that number, but when it is answered, I hear the sound over the phone's speaker, instead of the car's. The car's microphone doesn't seem to be picking up anything either.

I have a 2014 Prius 4, sunroof, jbl system, etc. I'd like to replace the NAV/sound system with an Apple Play setup and am wondering if this will violate the warranty, and if it's a complicated replacement. I still have a bit more than a year to go on the 3 yr, 36,000 mile warranty. Also, is there a certain brand of replacement system, Sony/Panasonic, etc., that would work well in this car.

2007 Prius with Nav System. Do I need a special cable to use the AUX jack in the arm rest? I have cable I tried to use and I show an AUX connection, but I get no sound out of the system.

Noticed that the stock speakers are very susceptible to getting blown? Rarely do I have crank up the music as I'm driving, but the right front speaker is rattling so bad now that I don't even turn on any music now until I can take it in to get replaced. The speaker settings are all slightly over mid range for bass, treble, etc.

I had the Rosen HU installed today. All functions are working. However, the front speakers will cut out from time to time, and then come back on by themselves. The power loss to the front speakers is typically 2-3 seconds, but has lasted as long as five seconds.
The installer followed all directions. The antenna is on top of the unit itself, behind the dash.

I found the tutorial on removing the rear door panel, but I could not get the front door panel removed. I worked on it and got the 3 screws out, but I tried pulling and heard a snap so I might have already broke a clip.

I have a 2012 Prius v Model 5 without Tech Pkg. While streaming music from my iPod Touch via Bluetooth, the sound tends to skip or speed up as if you are pressing fast forward intermittently. Sound is fine when hard wired via USB. I don't recall this happening when the car was new.
