You can adjust the bass in 7 steps (from –3 to +3).

Adjusting the treble

Press TREBLE + or – on the remote repeatedly to adjust the treble.
You can adjust the treble in 7 steps (from –3 to +3).

Tips

You can enjoy the original sound by setting BASS and TREBLE to 0.

You cannot activate DSG and Bass/Treble adjustment at the same time.

Adjusting the sub woofer

You can adjust the sound of the sub woofer to suit the sound source and adjustment on the system.

1

Start playing the sound source.

 

 

Male vocal tunes and voice containing bass

 

 

sounds are most suitable for adjustment. The

 

 

volume for the system should be set to the

 

2

same level as usual.

 

Turn CUT OFF FREQ on the sub woofer to

 

Tuner/Sound

 

adjust the cut-off frequency.

3

Turn LEVEL on the sub woofer to adjust

 

 

the volume level of the sub woofer.

 

4

Press PHASE on the sub woofer

 

5

repeatedly to select the phase polarity.

Adjustment

Repeat step 2 to 4 to adjust for your
The polarity changes as follows: NORMAL (normal) y REVERSE (reverse)
preference.

Tips

The power indicator lights red in standby mode. During playing, the indicator turns green. The sub woofer switches to standby mode automatically a few minutes after the music ends and sound is no longer produced.

If the sound distorts when you turn on the bass reinforcement (such as DSG, Bass, etc.), turn off the bass reinforcement and adjust the sound.

Once you have adjusted the sub woofer to the setting you desire, you can use VOL – or + on the system to adjust the volume of the sub woofer linked to the satellite speakers.

Reversing the polarity with PHASE on the sub woofer may provide better bass reproduction in certain listening environments (depending on the position of the sub woofer/satellite and adjustment of the cut-off frequency). It may also change the expanse and tightness of the sound, and effect the feeling of the sound field.

Note

 

Never set the system’s tone control (Bass, Treble) or

 

DSG output to a high level or input sinewaves of

 

20 Hz to 50 Hz recorded on a commercially available

 

test disc or special sound (bass sound of electronic

 

musical instrument, pop noise of analog disc

 

turntable, sound with abnormally enhanced bass, etc.)

 

in a high level to this system. These actions may

 

cause damage to the speakers. When a special disc

 

containing abnormally enhanced bass is played, noise

 

may be output. In such a case, decrease the sound

 

level.
