When I release the handle to lower the top, my audio always drops for a split second. Not a pop or anything. Just like it mutes quickly and then resumes. The same happens when you reverse the process and lock the top back down. I usually lower or raise the top right when I get in the car or am about to get out so I never noticed why this was happening as the volume was low. However recently when waiting for my kid to come out and get in, I had the music louder and when I released the handle to lower the top, I finally noticed why this was happening. The EQ actually has a different setting for when the top is down. When you release the locking handle for the top and the audio cuts out for a second, it comes back like an old school "loudness" button has been pressed. Volume goes up a bit, bass gets deeper and treble gets higher. Makes perfect sense to compensate for the top being down....

I can't say how long they have been doing this, but my 2019 does it. It's not a new thing.
