5. To unselect the EQ, press SELECT again.

6. Use and to position the cursor on another EQ, if desired, and repeat Step 3, until the room is equalized.

Note: Don’t put more than one EQ at one frequency. EQs can be close, but not stacked. If you find you need to stack the EQs at one

frequency in order to get enough output, you are probably working with a room mode. In this case, it is best to move the location of the

subwoofer or listening position instead.

Running Self-EQ Optimization – Your First EQ

The easiest EQ optimization to perform is the Self-EQ. With Self-EQ the subwoofer generates its own sweep tone. To perform

Self-EQ optimization:

1) Remove the microphone, mic cable and stand from the accessory kit. Carefully snap the microphone into the stand and attach

the larger end of the cable to it. See the Digital Drive

PLUS

User’s Manual for more information.

2) Place the microphone at the main listening position.

3) Attach the small end of the mic cable to the jack on the left side of the subwoofer front control panel.

4) Connect your subwoofer to your TV video input as described above in the Make Video Connection between TV and

Subwoofer section.

5) Make sure the subwoofer is on and your audio system is not playing any signal.

6) Press 3 – 2 – 1 on the remote to start Self-EQ; the System Response screen will display as well. The subwoofer’s front

display status message shows SE.

Once the Self-EQ process starts, you can press RESET on the remote to stop Self-EQ. If you exit back to the Introductory screen,

you can’t see the Self-EQ frequency response curve again.

7) On the System Response screen, SELF option shows in the EQ MODE area.
