Sound Field Adjustment The setting of Parametric EQ/Graphic EQ Adjustment, Time Correction and X-Over can be adjusted in this mode. Adjusting the Parametric Equalizer Curve You can modify the Equalizer settings to create a response curve more appealing to your personal taste. To adjust the Parametric Equalizer Curve, set the EQ mode to PARAMETRIC EQ. For details, refer to "Setting EQ mode" (page 36). 1 After selecting EQ ADJ (Parametric EQ) from the Sound Field Adjustment mode, turn the Rotary encoder to select the band adjustment, and then press /ENTER. BAND1 BAND2 BAND3 BAND4 BAND5 BAND1 2 Turn the Rotary encoder to select an item to adjust, then press /ENTER. FC LV Q FC (frequency) (level) (bandwidth) (frequency) Frequency Adjustment 3-1 Turn the Rotary encoder to select frequency bands. Adjustable frequency bands: 20 Hz to 20 kHz (in 1/3 octave steps) BAND1: 20 Hz~80 Hz (63 Hz) BAND2: 50 Hz~200 Hz (150 Hz) BAND3: 125 Hz~3.2 kHz (400 Hz) BAND4: 315 Hz~8 kHz (1 kHz) BAND5: 800 Hz~20 kHz (2.5 kHz) Level Adjustment 3-2 Turn the Rotary encoder to adjust the level. Adjustable level: -6 to +6 dB Bandwidth (Q) Adjustment 3-3 Turn the Rotary encoder to set the bandwidth (Q). Adjustable bandwidth: 1, 1.5, 3 4 To adjust another band, repeat steps 1 to 3 and adjust all bands. • The frequencies of adjacent bands cannot be adjusted within 4 steps. • While adjusting the Parametric EQ, you should consider the frequency response of the connected speakers. Adjusting the Graphic Equalizer Curve You can modify the equalizer settings to create a response curve more appealing to your personal taste. To adjust the graphic equalizer curve, set the EQ mode to GRAPHIC EQ. For details, refer to "Setting EQ mode" (page 36). 1 After selecting EQ ADJ (Graphic EQ) from the Sound Field Adjustment mode, turn the Rotary encoder to select the band adjustment, and then press /ENTER. BAND1 BAND2 BAND3 BAND4 BAND5 BAND6 BAND7 BAND1 BAND-1 (63 Hz) / BAND-2 (150 Hz) / BAND-3 (400 Hz) / BAND-4 (1 kHz) / BAND-5 (2.5 kHz) / BAND-6 (6.3 kHz) / BAND-7 (17.5 kHz) 2 Press /ENTER to activate the level adjusting mode. 3 Turn the Rotary encoder to adjust the level. Adjustable output level: -6 to +6 dB 4 To adjust another band, repeat steps 1 to 3, and then adjust all bands. Adjusting the Time Correction Before performing the following procedures, refer to "About Time Correction" (page 37). 1 After selecting TIME CORRECTION from the Sound Field Adjustment mode, turn the Rotary encoder to select the band adjustment, and then press /ENTER. 2.2ch (3WAY) System F-L (Initial setting) (Mid-L) SW-L SW-R F-R R-L R-R (Mid-R) (High-L ) (High-R) F-L (Mid-L) 4.2ch (FRONT/REAR/SUBW.) System F-L (Initial setting) (Front-L) SW-L SW-R F-R R-L (Front-R) (Rear-L) F-L (Front-L) R-R (Rear-R) 2 Press /ENTER to activate the Time Correction input mode. 3 Turn the Rotary encoder to adjust the distance (0.0 to 336.6 cm). L = (distance to farthest speaker) - (distance to other speakers) Refer to "Time Correction Value List" on page 37. 4 Repeat steps 1 to 3 to set another speaker. Set these values to achieve simultaneous sound propagation to the listening position. 34-EN
