Sound Field Adjustment

The setting of Parametric EQ/Graphic EQ Adjustment, Time Correction and X-Over can be adjusted in this mode.

Adjusting the Parametric Equalizer Curve

You can modify the Equalizer settings to create a response curve more appealing to your personal taste. To adjust the Parametric Equalizer Curve, set the EQ mode to PARAMETRIC EQ. For details, refer to “Setting EQ mode” (page 36).

1 After selecting EQ ADJ (Parametric EQ) from the Sound Field Adjustment mode, turn the Rotary encoder to select the band adjustment, and then press /ENTER.

Bandwidth (Q) Adjustment

3-3 Turn the Rotary encoder to set the bandwidth (Q).

Adjustable bandwidth: 1, 1.5, 3

4 To adjust another band, repeat steps 1 to 3 and adjust all bands.

•The frequencies of adjacent bands cannot be adjusted within 4 steps.

•While adjusting the Parametric EQ, you should consider the frequency response of the connected speakers.

Adjusting the Graphic Equalizer Curve

You can modify the equalizer settings to create a response curve more appealing to your personal taste. To adjust the graphic equalizer curve, set the EQ mode to GRAPHIC EQ. For details, refer to “Setting EQ mode” (page 36).

1 After selecting EQ ADJ (Graphic EQ) from the Sound Field Adjustment mode, turn the Rotary encoder to select the band adjustment, and then press

/ENTER.

2 Press /ENTER to activate the level adjusting mode.

3 Turn the Rotary encoder to adjust the level. Adjustable output level: –6 to +6 dB

4 To adjust another band, repeat steps 1 to 3, and then adjust all bands.

Adjusting the Time Correction

Before performing the following procedures, refer to “About Time Correction” (page 37).

1 After selecting TIME CORRECTION from the Sound Field Adjustment mode, turn the Rotary encoder to select the band adjustment, and then press

2 Press /ENTER to activate the Time Correction input mode.

3 Turn the Rotary encoder to adjust the distance (0.0 to 336.6 cm).

L = (distance to farthest speaker) – (distance to other speakers)

Refer to “Time Correction Value List” on page 37.

4 Repeat steps 1 to 3 to set another speaker.

Set these values to achieve simultaneous sound propagation to the listening position.
