However, the graphic equalizer levels for Variable Output, Speakers On are stored in memory in case you switch from Fixed Output back to Variable Output, Speakers On.

Note: Equalizer Presets are stored for each input. All other audio feature settings are stored globally across all inputs and not per input.
