Precisely adjusting your sound This section explains how to create the ideal listening field within the car, making extensive use of I-TA Pro mode and HDEQ. Start ! Example of vocal localization of sound* in the listening position at front left seat. Advance setting 1 Set the equalizer to Flat. Other sound features should be off. 2 Measure the distance between your listening position and each speaker. I-TA Pro mode 1 Enter their values using I-TA Pro mode. Enter the distance value measured following the I-TA Pro mode procedure, then save. 2 Adjust the FADER setting to F fully, then adjust the distance values of the front speakers. [Front L-R setting] 3 Adjust the FADER setting to R fully, then adjust the distance values of the rear speakers. [Rear L-R setting] Step1: Adjust the distance value of opposite speaker, leaving the distance value of the nearest speaker as is. Step2: Increasing the distance value of a speaker moves the localization of sound closer to the speaker. For example, to listen to sound in the left front seat, adjust the distance value of the speaker farther from you (here, the right speaker). To move the localization of sound to the right, increase the value of the right speaker, and vice versa. HDEQ 4 Return the FADER setting to the center, then adjust the balance between front and rear by adjusting distance values of the rear speakers. [Front - Rear setting] Similarly, adjust the balance of the front speaker and the rear speaker. The localization of sound has moved towards the front seat, so you need to adjust the distance value of the rear speaker. To move the localization forwards, decrease the distance value of the rear speakers, and vice versa. 1 Adjust the FADER setting to F fully, then adjust the front left and right speakers based on the preset equalizer curve (Refined Vocal). Hint: Adjust as desired, listening to your chosen music. For example, to emphasize vocals, adjust the sound level of frequencies 500 Hz - 2.5 kHz (typical voice range). 2 Adjust the FADER setting to R fully, then adjust the rear left and right speakers based on the preset equalizer curve (Refined Vocal). 3 Return the FADER setting to the center. Finish ! * Localization of sound is the impression of sounds emanating from specific points within the listening environment. 13
