ABSTRACT:
A microprocessor controlled automotive audio system with radio, cassette tape, and/or compact disk media has a rear seat control with headphones allowing rear passengers to turn off the rear speakers, turn on the headphones and select any media, while the front speakers play programs selected by a front control. Rear control of media programming is also permitted if the selected media is not under front control. Rear control signals the desired function to the microprocessor which executes the commands subject to front control dominance. An audio processor couples the front-selected program to front and rear outputs and to front speakers. An audio multiplexer connects any media as well as the rear output to the rear control where a speaker/headphone switch connects the multiplexer to the rear speaker or the headphone.
