23.02.2003  NEW LANCIA YPSILON TO RECEIVE WORLD PREMIERE AT GENEVA MOTOR SHOW


> BOSE HI-FI SOUND SYSTEM

You can let your emotions be aroused while aboard the Lancia Ypsilon as well due to a Bose® Sound System.

The system was created by the US Hi-Fi leader and offers realistic playing quality with crystal clear high notes and full, rich bass notes. The sound enfolds all the occupants and makes them feel as though they are travelling in a much larger environment, because the sound system and the passenger compartment have been designed in tandem to harmonise their technical specifications. 

To achieve this result, the Bose® engineers carried out measurements and recordings on the car and carefully chose all the parts of the stereo system. They then established the best possible position of the six speakers in relation to the listeners with the aid of advanced design software. 

The front doors therefore house two 165 mm broadband speakers with 50 mm tweeters designed for the best playing quality throughout the sound frequency range. The rear panels house two 150 mm mid-woofer speakers designed for medium-low frequencies.

The boot compartment also contains a sub-woofer (Bass-reflex) complemented by a twin-coil 130 mm diameter woofer that allows outstanding reproduction of deep, powerful bass notes.

The Bose® Hi-Fi Sound System Bose® also includes an audio power amplifier with 6 independent channels: four manage both speaker groups in each of the doors and vehicle side panels and the other two are dedicated to subwoofer control. An active equalisation circuit behind the subwoofer also ensures an excellent automatic electronic balance of all output frequencies, great stability and clarity of tone throughout the audio range. All this means that you can enjoy impeccable musical playing under all driving conditions without having to fiddle with the controls. The interaction between all these sophisticated components gives rise to the extraordinary sound that has made the Bose® brand famous throughout the world.
