Adjusting3-band parametric equalizer
For Custom1and Custom2 equalizer cur ves,
youcan adjust the front, rear and center
equalizercurves separately by selecting a cen-
terfrequency, an equalizer level and a Q factor
foreach band.
!Aseparate Custom1 curve can be created
foreach source.
!ACustom2curve can becreated common
toall sources.
!Thecenter speaker largely determines the
soundimage and getting the balance right
isnteasy. We recommend reproducing a 2-
ch.audio (a CD for example) and getting
thebalance right among the speakers ex-
ceptfor the center, and then reproducing a
5.1-ch.audio (Dolby Digital or DTS) and ad-
justingthe center speaker output to the
balanceyou have already got among the
otherspeakers.
