Treble Compensa-
tion: –14 to +14 Decreases (–) or increases (+) the treble sound.
Rooms with too few sound-absorbing furnishings, especially those with bare floors
and walls, may sound overly shrill or “bright.” Lowering this setting to a negative value
from –1 to –14 decreases the treble sound.
Rooms with a lot of sound-absorbing furnishings, such as upholstered furniture, wall-
to-wall carpet, or heavy drapes, may reduce the treble sound of your system. Moving
speakers farther away from soft furnishings increases treble. You can increase the tre-
ble sound by raising this setting to a positive value from +1 to +14.
Bass Compensa-
tion: –14 to +14 Decreases (–) or increases (+) the bass sound.
Placement of the Acoustimass ® module affects the amount of bass you hear. Placing
the module closer to the corner of the room will increase the bass. Moving the module
away from the corner will decrease the bass.
You can decrease the bass sound by lowering this setting to a negative value from –1
to –14. To increase the bass, raise this setting to a positive value from +1 to +14.
