Adjusting X-Over and Switching the Phases
This section describes how to adjust
Note on adjusting the subwoofer
If the subwoofer is installed on the rear deck, setting a gentle LPF slope (for example 6 dB/ oct.) makes the sound localization more to the rear. This can also affect the acoustic localization of the front.
Note on adjusting the high range
Depending on the speaker, inputting low frequency component signals (about 2 kHz or less) with the HPF adjustment could result in distortion. If distortion occurs, set a steep slope (for example 30 dB/oct.).
Adjust so that the mid and high range sounds do not separate.
Normally use with the LPF turned off. If the high range is too strong, we recommend adjusting for a gentle slope.
Note on adjusting the low range
When a subwoofer is connected and you are using a speaker with a low range of under 10 or 12 cm
If so, set the H.P.F. slope to a value suited for the speaker’s frequency response.

The
4 Press and hold [CHANNEL] for at least 2 seconds. Rotate the [Rotary encoder] to select either “L+R” or “L or R,” and press the [Rotary encoder].
L or R: Channels R and L can be set independently.
L+R: Both R and L channels are set at the same value (The initial setting).
•When you switch from “L or R” to “L+R,” choose which adjustment of the R and L channels to be applied.
1Select either “L 
R” or “R 
L” by rotating the [Rotary encoder], and press the [Rotary encoder].
L 
R: The adjustment of the L channel is to be applied to both R and L channels.
R 
L: The adjustment of the R channel is to be applied to both R and L channels.
