100 Hz, 125 Hz, 160 Hz, 200 Hz, and 250 Hz to
control the area. Or you can use one parametric
control centered at 160 Hz and set the bandwidth
at 1 octave and you can perform a global adjust-
ment of the entire midbass region.
The other excellent use for a parametric band is
very narrow cut of a problem area. The
1
12 and
1
6
octave band width allows this narrow fine tuning.
TROUBLESHOOTING
No Power: If the Power LED on your DQT does
not turn on, check to make sure that the power
wire and remote turn on wires are connected or a
fuse is not blown.
System Sounds Unbalanced: Check your
graphic equalization settings to make sure that
one channel is not dramatically different than
another.
Sounds Distorted: Should your system sound
distorted or your speakers are moving way too
much, you should make sure you have your levels
matched properly and that your amplifier gains
are set at minimum. Make sure the “Maximized”
or “Overload” LEDs are not on steady. If this
checks out okay, you will want to look at your EQ
controls to insure that your boost levels are not
too high.
Still Sounds Distorted: Look at the frequen-
cies that you have selected for Para EQ 1 and Para
EQ 2 and see how much boost or cut you have
applied. Than look at those same frequencies on
your Graphic EQ. If you have boost applied to the
same frequencies on both types of equalizers,
there is a strong chance you are overdriving your
speakers and amplifiers at that frequency.
Output Voltage LED’s Don’t Light Up: If
your system is playing music but none of the
output LED’s are on, there is a good chance that
the output voltage of your source unit is not that
strong. Now before you call us and say, “The guy
at the store said my radio has high-voltage out-
put”, you might want to face the fact that there is
“Engineering Voltage” and there is “Marketing
Voltage”. Most source units are also tested at
maximum output, not the level that most of us
listen to. Without picking on any particular
source unit, remember that you do get what you
pay for.
