Crossover Freq.
Sets the lower limit of the low frequency component
output from a speaker with a size set to “Small (SMLx1/
SMLx2).” Sound with a frequency below that limit is
output from a subwoofer or front speakers.
If your subwoofer has a volume control or a crossover
frequency control, set the volume to half or the crossover
frequency at the maximum.
Subwoofer Phase
Sets the phase of your subwoofer if bass sounds are
lacking or unclear.
■
B)Level
Separately adjusts volume of each speaker so that the
sounds form speakers are at the same volume at the
listening position. Items to be displayed vary depending
on the number of speakers connected.

Tone” to “On” (see page 53).
• If your subwoofer has a volume control or a crossover frequency control,
set the volume to half or the crossover frequency at the maximum.
■ C)Distance
Adjusts timing at which each speaker outputs sound so
that sounds from speakers reach the listening position at
the same time. Set unit (Unit) first and set the distance of
each speaker.

GEQ
Adjusts sound quality of each speaker using a graphic
equalizer. The graphic equalizer of this unit can adjust
signal levels in 7 frequency ranges.
To adjust the signal level within each range, select the
desired speaker with oCursor l / h while “→” is
displayed next to “Channel,” then the desired frequency
band with oCursor k / n, and adjust the signal level
with oCursor l / h.
■
E)Test Tone
Switches between on and off of an oscillator that generates
test tones. To turn on the oscillator, select “On” using
oCursor l / h. When “On” is selected, you can adjust
the settings of “2 Manual Setup” while listening to a test
tone.
You can set various items for sound outputs.
