Section 07 Digital Signal Processor 2 Press m or n to select the speaker to be adjusted. Each press of m or n selects the speaker in the following order: Front speaker leftCenter speakerFront speaker rightRear speaker rightRear speaker leftSubwoofer # You cannot select speakers whose size is set at OFF. 3 Press q or r to adjust the distance between the selected speaker and the listening position. Each press of q or r increases or decreases the distance. 200inch 0inch is displayed as the distance is increased or decreased. 4 Press BAND to return to the playback display. Using the auto-equalizer The auto-equalizer is the equalizer curve created by auto TA and EQ (refer to Auto TA and EQ (auto-time alignment and auto-equalizing) on this page). You can turn the auto-equalizer on or off. 1 Press p and hold until SP Set appears in the display, then press p to select AUTO EQ. # You cannot use this function if auto TA and EQ has not been carried out. 2 Press r to turn the auto-equalizer on. AUTO EQ ON appears in the display. # To turn auto-equalizer off, press q. Auto TA and EQ (auto-time alignment and autoequalizing) Only when the multi-channel processor (e.g., DEQ-P8000) is connected to this unit, you can operate this function. The auto-time alignment is automatically adjusted for the distance between each speaker and the listening position. The auto-equalizer automatically measures the car interior acoustic characteristics, and then creates the auto-equalizer curve based on that information. WARNING To prevent accidents, never carry out auto TA and EQ while driving. When this function measures the car interior acoustic characteristics to create an auto-equalizer curve, a loud measurement tone (noise) may be outputted from the speakers. CAUTION ! Carrying out auto TA and EQ under the follow- ing conditions may damage the speakers. Be sure to check the conditions thoroughly before carrying out auto TA and EQ.  When speakers are incorrectly connected. (e.g., When a rear speaker is connected to a subwoofer output.)  When a speaker is connected to a power amp delivering output higher than the speakers maximum input power capability. ! If the microphone is placed in an unsuitable position the measurement tone may become loud and measurement may take a long time, resulting in a drain on battery power. Be sure to place the microphone in the specified location. 30 En

Auto TA and EQ (auto-time
alignment and auto-
equalizing)
Only when the multi-channel processor (e.g.,
DEQ-P8000) is connected to this unit, you can
operate this function.
The auto-time alignment is automatically ad-
justed for the distance between each speaker
and the listening position.
The auto-equalizer automatically measures
the car interior acoustic characteristics, and
then creates the auto-equalizer curve based
on that information.
WARNING
To prevent accidents, never carry out auto TA and
EQ while driving. When this function measures
the car interior acoustic characteristics to create
an auto-equalizer curve, a loud measurement
tone (noise) may be outputted from the speakers.
