	Tilt (Dolby Digital version)	The Tilt parameter can be thought of as a straight line that pivots on a
		fulcrum at 1kHz to correct the overall tonal balance of source material. The
		range is -3.0dB to +3.0dB, referenced to the Treble level. This control,
		adjustable in 0.2dB increments, is useful on many older recordings, or when
		the desired tonal balance cannot be achieved using the Bass, Treble and
		Loudness controls. The Tilt control does not alter the tonal balance of the
		rear or side speakers.

Tilt Control Frequency Response

Loudness A Loudness Contour parameter which boosts bass information, provides more balanced reproduction at low volume listening conditions. Once you have calibrated DC-1 output levels, you can assume a specific acoustic level for a given volume setting and set the LOUDNESS parameter ON to provide the ideal amount of boost for any given volume setting. This parameter does not affect the sound in rear or side speakers.
