ADJUSTABLE PARAMETERS

The Room EQ Setup accesses the Digital Room Equalizer, a feature
designed by Krell to provide every adjustment from simple bass and
treble to comprehensive room correction. The Digital Room Equalizer
enables you to adjust frequency response through three discrete
bands (I, II, and III). The four adjustable parameters available are fil-
ter type, frequency, shape, and level.

There are four Room EQ setup memories, each of which saves
every parameter set for every filter, for every channel. Each setup
memory can save a configuration, for example, one for stereo music,
one for multichannel music, one for movie surround, and one for
video game software.

You can adjust the filters for the Home Theater Standard 7.1 chan-
nels globally or individually. Up to three filters can be configured to
act equally on all seven channels of audio. Alternatively, each filter
can be configured separately for each individual channel.

TYPE

Six filter types are available for each filter: Notch Filter, Peaking Filter,
High Shelf Filter, Low Shelf Filter, High Pass Filter (HPF) and Low
Pass Filter (LPF). Each of the filter types available has a unique
effect on frequency response.

The following three parameters for filters may be configured, depend-
ing on the filter type selected:

FREQ

The center/cutoff frequency can be specified for all six filter types,
from 20 Hz to 16 kHz in 1/3 octave increments.

SHAPE

Shape controls the bandwidth of the filter and is adjustable on the
Notch and Peaking filter types, from 0.4 to 9 octaves. Shape is fixed
at a 6 dB / octave slope for the High and Low Pass Filters. This para-
meter is not available for the High and Low Shelf Filters.

LEVEL

Level is adjustable on the Peaking, High Shelf and Low Shelf filters,
from -12 dB to +6 dB. Level is fixed for the Notch Filter at - 90 dB.
This parameter is not available for the High and Low Pass Filters.
