Tone Control

■Bass

`–10 dB to 0 dB to +10 dB in 2 dB steps You can boost or cut low-frequency sounds output from the front speakers.

■Treble

`–10 dB to 0 dB to +10 dB in 2 dB steps

You can boost or cut high-frequency sounds output from the front speakers.

You can adjust the bass and treble for the front speakers, except when Direct or Pure Audio

mode is selected.

Operating on the AV receiver

1	Press TONE repeatedly to select either “Bass”
	or “Treble”.
2	Use – and + to adjust.

Phase Matching Bass

■PM Bass

`Off

`On

From the warm low notes produced by a cello to the deep frequencies of electronic music, a good audio system should be able to deliver plenty of bass resonance.

While traditional enhancement systems effectively boost low-frequency sound, they are often prone to the effects of phase shifting, which can overwhelm mid-range frequencies and muddy the sound. Our Phase-Matching Bass Boost technology effectively preserves mid-range clarity-allowing vocals and strings to shine-while maintaining a smooth, powerful bass response at all volume levels.

Note

•The Phase Matching Bass is disabled when the Direct or Pure Audio (European, Australian and Asian models) listening mode is selected.

•If the “Subwoofer” setting is set to “No”, this setting is fixed to “Off”.

Operating on the AV receiver

1	Press TONE repeatedly to select “PM Bass”.
2	Use – and + to change the setting.

Speaker Levels
