Operation modes Extra functions

This unit’s 4-way network DSP lets you create a 4-way multi-amp, multi-speaker system with separate speakers for reproduction of high, middle, low and ultra-low frequencies (bands), each driven by a dedicated power amp. The 4- way network mode provides network and time alignment functions. These two functions are essential for a multi-amp, multi-speaker sys- tem to enable precise control over settings for each frequency range.

Important

Even when the battery is disconnected or the mi- croprocessor is reset, this unit’s audio setting re- mains in the memory. If you want to reset the audio setting, refer to Resetting the audio func- tions on page 38.

Note

If one subwoofer is used with this system, left and right channel adjustment values, such as time alignment and network settings, need to be the same.
