LTZ package and a Bose

Bose AudioPilot

noise, so that music always sounds the same at the set
volume level.
This feature is most effective at lower radio volume
settings where background noise can affect how well the
music is heard. At higher volume settings, where the
music is much louder than the background noise, there
might be little or no adjustments by AudioPilot

setup menu.
