NOTES
•When the speaker is set to the “OFF” mode, the graphic equalizer for that speaker is ineffective. Refer to “Setting the speakers” (page 4).
•Check the playable frequency ranges of the connected speakers before making the equalizer adjustments. If the speaker’s playable frequency range is 55 Hz to 30 kHz, for example, adjusting the 40 Hz or 20 Hz band has no effect. Additionally, you may overload and damage the speakers.
•After making the settings, we recommend storing them in the memory. For instructions, see page 28.
•When graphic EQ is adjusted, the adjustment for parametric EQ becomes ineffective.
