Front image enhancer (F.I.E.)
The F.I.E. (Front Image Enhancer) function is a
simple method of enhancing front imaging by
cutting mid- and high-range frequency output
from the rear speakers, limiting their output to
low-range frequencies. You can select the fre-
quency you want to cut.
Precaution
When the F.I.E. function is deactivated, the rear
speakers output sound of all frequencies, not just
bass sounds. Reduce the volume before disenga-
ging F.I.E. to prevent a sudden increase in vo-
lume.

quency.

Notes

ance adjustment (refer to page 12) and adjust
front and rear speaker volume levels until they
are balanced.
! Turn the F.I.E. function off when using a 2-
speaker system.
Adjusting source levels

dical changes in volume when switching be-
tween sources.

just.

lume.
