Boosting the bass

Bass boost function boosts the bass level of sound lower than 100 Hz. The more the bass level is increased, the more the bass sound is emphasized and the entire sound becomes powerful. When using this function with the subwoofer, the sound under the cut-off fre- quency is boosted.

!Turn the F.I.E. function off when using a 2- speaker system.

!F.I.E. function is effective only for built-in am- plifier.

Adjusting source levels

SLA (source level adjustment) lets you adjust the volume level of each source to prevent ra- dical changes in volume when switching be- tween sources.

!Settings are based on the FM tuner volume level, which remains unchanged.

1Compare the FM tuner volume level with the level of the source you wish to ad- just.

The F.I.E. (Front Image Enhancer) function is a simple method of enhancing front imaging by cutting mid- and high-range frequency output from the rear speakers, limiting their output to low-range frequencies. You can select the fre- quency you want to cut.

Precaution

When the F.I.E. function is deactivated, the rear speakers output sound of all frequencies, not just bass sounds. Reduce the volume before disenga-

2Use MULTI-CONTROL to select SLA.

3Push MULTI-CONTROL up or down to adjust the source volume.

Each time MULTI-CONTROL is pushed up or down, source volume increases or decreases. SLA +4 to SLA –4 is displayed as the source volume is increased or decreased.

Notes

!The MW/LW tuner volume level can also be adjusted with source level adjustments.
