Figure 12: Memory save screen
Save: Once you have made your equalization
and crossover settings, you will want to save them
in of the eight memory locations. When the
cursor is flashing next to the word “Save”, use the
“+” or “-” buttons to select a memory location.
Once you have selected a memory location, tap
either the “Left” or “Right” button and the cursor
will move to the bottom left of the screen be-
tween “N(-)” and “Y(+)”. Tap the (+) button to
complete the saving process or tap (-) to quit.

Figure 13: Display brightness screen
In this mode, you have the ability to change the
brightness levels on the display of your DQX.
Using the left and right navigation buttons you
can toggle back and forth between “Bright” and
“Dim”. Once you have selected a brightness level
you are comfortable with, tap the “Select” button
and your last brightness setting will be retained.
ADJUSTING THE EQUALIZER
When it comes to music, everyone has their own
particular taste. Some people want pounding bass
and crisp, blood curdling highs. Others may prefer
a “flat” response (whatever the heck that is). At
the end of the day, most people just want their
system to sound balanced, “just like it did in the
store” or their buddy’s car. The following equal-
ization guidelines should help you achieve your
own personal audio nirvana.
1) For optimum performance, get your hands on a
test compact disc that contains pink noise and a
good quality RTA (real time analyzer); we happen
to know someone who makes a really good one.
If you cannot locate an RTA, you probably want
to have your authorized AudioControl dealer
perform the equalization adjustments, as they will
likely have an analyzer. You can certainly adjust
your DQX using your ears, however an RTA will
give you the best results.
2) Begin playing pink noise through your system
and place the microphone for your analyzer on a
microphone stand in the driver’s seat. Take a
careful look at the “curve” on your analyzer and
how one frequency combines with the next.
