Select variable ‘EQ 1’ -
to allow separate bass and treble settings for use with all input sources.
Many systems allow only adjustment of bass and treble levels at fixed frequency points. Your processor allows
you to adjust level and frequency so you may fine tune your tone controls to proved either very subtle effects at
just the right frequency extremes, or for more a pronounced effect at higher bass and lower treble frequencies.
A default setting for bass and treble may be set under Setup Room Equalization.
Selecting variable ‘EQ 1’ allows you to use the options shown below in VARIABLE EQUALIZATION, and
temporarily override the default settings made to bass and treble in setup room equalization (See Room
Equalization under Setup Speakers).
Adjust LFE Level
if you have no subwoofer and you wish to reduce the low frequency effects (LFE) channel to
lessen its contribution to the bass going to your remaining large speakers. Or, even with a subwoofer, you may
just wish to reduce the overall LFE level, especially in an apartment situation. Note that this affects only the
separate LFE (.1) channel available on Dolby Digital and DTS material it has no effect on the reproduction of
normal bass from the front, center, or surround channels.
Select DTS LFE MODE Music
if your DTS material is mixed for a reduced LFE setting and you wish to have a
more natural sound. Note that this affects only the separate LFE (.1) channel available on DTS material and has
no effect on the reproduction of normal bass from the front, center, or surround channels.
Select Dynamic Range Limited
for late night listening while using Dolby Digital bit streams and a reduced
dynamic range is desired. When the dynamic range is set to limited, compression is used to raise the average
loudness of the dialog, and the program peaks will be restricted much in the style of conventional television audio.
