Advent Oem-style Navigation Installed!

You can just mute it by using the steering wheel button or tapping the volume knob- don't hold it.

[6Sixathome]

Didn't want to mute it, just want the volume to go lower than 1, if that's possible?

[esox07]

Huh? That seems like saying you want six instead of a half dozen.

[6Sixathome]

No, to me it seems loud for being on 1. I guess there is a fix for it but wanted to see if anyone else has noticed it. Look here in the second box down, someone else was inquiring about it. http://voxrightnow.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/14918/~/troubleshooting-the-advent-ogm1-radio

Well, now I am going to have to try this out in my truck. I normally listen to the radio on at least 10 and probably 25 at highway speeds. I think the scale goes up to 50. But I am thinking I wouldn't even be able to hear it on ONE for the volume. Next time I am in the truck, I will try to remember to check it out and reply back.

Just a thought, but do you have an Amp installed?

[6Sixathome]

No amp. I'll try and get a video up. Seems like sometimes youtube take forever to publish.

Hey sixathome: It is me from the other forum. I didn't realize who I was talking to here. Looking forward to the video though.

Maybe this is 'normal', IDK just seems loud compared to the stock HU volume control. No biggy if that's the way it is, just seems louder in the truck than in the video and to what I'm used to after having the stock system. Here's my lame attempt to make a video :-/

 

[MikeNH]

I'll try mine tonight. I can't say I've ever bothered to turn it that low. Depending on the source I have to run mine from say 18-30 for a comfortable volume and for what it's worth I hate loud noise so I rarely have mine blastingvv

[esox07]

sixathome: Here is my video with volume. I hope this helps but I do see where the volume at "1" is definitely audible. I expected to not be able to hear it at all. But I certainly don't think it is loud and even sitting in the truck with doors and windows closed with no noise outside at all, I would comfortably listen to it higher than that, even if I was trying to catch some ZZZZZ's. And I am over 50 and not a music lover....in fact, 98% of my radio listening is talk radio. So, I turn it up to a point I can understand what is being talked about and that is about it.

Video unavailable right now, must need time to publish? I called the number in that post I made and the guy said tap between the t and h of bluetooth to change the setting, so I tapped between the t and h like he said and all it gave me was a amp on/off setting. Since I don't have an amp I left it alone. I don't have a sub either so I didn't have to change anything in that screen either. It must be how it is I guess.

[esox07]

It is working for me right now. I think maybe I posted it too quick....try it again.

[6Sixathome]

That sounds a bit quieter than mine, maybe it's because yours was on XM and mine was regular FM. Going out to try and get another better sounding video.

[esox07]

sixathome: I think it was my camera actually. I tried to describe the sound as best I could.

But as far as the demo mode goes: Here is the link to the instructions on Walt's support web page. you will probably have to log on with the login information that walt gave you with the OGM-1.

Maybe this video will sound better

and this one with VAN HALEN =-)

 

I did these video's with my Ipad so the sound probably isn't great. It's waaaaaaaaay louder in the truck.....I'm 40 and can hear like a bat, haha. Seriously though I have really good hearing and have always worn hearing protection for anything I do that involves loud noise, work, mowing, shooting guns, etc so it's probably just me, no biggy because the OGM1 is a pretty slick system. Funny thing is my hearing isn't so good when my wife is B!#$h-n, lol.
