•This function is not available when Defeat is set to ON.
•When the speaker is set to the “OFF” mode, the graphic equalizer for that speaker cannot be set. Refer to “Setting the Speaker System (System Select)” (page 37) /“Setting the Speakers (Speaker Setup)” (page 38).
•Check the playable frequency ranges of the connected speakers before making 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. Moreover, you may overload and damage the speakers.
•After the setting, it is recommended to store the setting contents on the unit. For details, refer to “Storing the Preset Values (Preset Store)” (page 36).
