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).

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).

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.
