Speed sensitive volume control

Does anyone know which if any aftermarket radio manufactuers have speed sensitive volume control? Pioneer calls it auto sound levelization but it appears they aren't using it anymore. I absolutely cannot live without this feature.

Thanks

Alpines I believe have this feature, but I am not sure on which model if it still exists. Sorry could not be more specific.

yea, I asked pioneer and they said they stopped the feature. I'll have to ask other companies. Can't find it on their websites.

What I can't really understand is that if Pioneer or Premier can offer auto EQ with a microphone, how the heck harder can it be to have auto sound? You already have the microphone!!

It would actually be easier than the auto eq. An auto gain control hooked to the volume triggered by the vss wire. I'm sure it wont be long before they all do it.
