      Julie ThomasAug 20, 2025
      If the audio quality is poor after connecting your Clarion Car Receiver with a Bluetooth-enabled device, the microphone may not be correctly positioned. Adjust the position of the microphone, such as sticking it onto the dashboard near the driver. Also, poor Bluetooth reception can cause this issue. Move the device closer to the car audio system or remove any obstacles between the device and the system.
