Refer to "Setting the Speakers" (page 40). • Check the playable frequency ranges of the connected speakers before making the equalizer adjustments. If the speaker's playable frequency range is 55 Hz to 30 kHz, for example, adjusting the 40 Hz or 20 Hz band has no effect. Additionally, you may overload and damage the speakers. • When graphic EQ is adjusted, the adjustment for parametric EQ becomes ineffective. Parametric Equalizer Adjustments The frequency bands of the graphic equalizer are fixed. This makes it very difficult to correct for undesired peaks and dips at specific frequencies. The parametric equalizer's center frequency can be tuned to these specific frequencies. Then, the bandwidth (Q) and level are fine-tuned, independently, to make the necessary corrections. The parametric equalizer function is an advanced tool for serious audiophiles. 1 Check that Defeat mode is off. 2 Touch [SETUP] on the main source screen.
