Sound Modes
The System has some preset sound effects that give you control of the way your music sounds, so you can tailor it for your room and for the quality of the source. We can give you some idea of how each one affects the music, but the only way to really tell is to try them yourself.
You can also create up to three of your own customized S.E.A. (Sound Effect Amplifier) settings and store them in the Unit’s memory (MANUAL 1, MANUAL 2, MANUAL 3).
The preset sound modes include modes using surround effects and modes using S.E.A. effects. Sound Mode effects cannot be recorded.
To get an effect, press SOUND MODE repeatedly until the Sound Mode you want appears on the display. The Sound Mode selected will appear on the display for three seconds. When a surround effect mode is selected, the frame around the SOUND MODE indicator will light up. When a S.E.A. effect mode is selected, the SOUND MODE indicator will light up.
Each time you press SOUND MODE, the Sound Mode changes as follows:
=D. CLUB = HALL = STADIUM = ROCK = POP = CLASSIC = MANUAL 1 = MANUAL 2 = MANUAL 3 = OFF =(back to the beginning)
