Speed Volume compensation not working?

[CiceroGirl6]

Is anyone else noticing that the speed volume compensation is not working on their Prelude? I spent the last decade driving an Accord hybrid sedan that had it (set to "medium") and never had to increase the volume manually, but even with it set on "high" in my Prelude, at higher speeds with extra road/wind noise, I end up turning the volume up manually. The Accord cabin seemed quieter than the Prelude's, but I would have thought that setting it in high would compensate for that. I'm not even sure how to tell whether it's working at all... or if it just doesn't increase the volume enough.

Yes - I have experienced the same problem.
Dealer told me it works in Sports mode with S+ switch on, but I found it doesn't. It works perfectly in all drive modes in my 11 Gen Civic which also has the BOSE audio. Obviously something wrong with the function in the Prelude.

I agree: either it's not working, or the effect is subtle enough to be imperceptable!

Agreed - it doesn’t work.

I don’t know whether to feel better knowing it isn’t just me or to be concerned that it doesn’t seem to be working for others as well. I will ask the dealer’s service people about it when I take it in for the first oil change, but since I bought the first (and only one, so far) that my dealer has received, they haven’t worked on any yet.
