Adjusting the Volume
Turn the VOLUME control clockwise to increase the volume or anticlockwise to decrease it.
Turning the VOLUME control quickly also adjusts the volume level quickly.
When using the Remote Control, press the VOLUME + button to increase the volume or press the
VOLUME – button to decrease it.
You can adjust the volume level between 0 and 50.
CAUTION: The Volume cannot be adjusted while the Unit is in STANDBY

setting the VOLUME control to 0; otherwise, the sudden blast of sound
can damage your hearing, speakers and/or headphones.

Sound Modes
The System has some preset sound effects that give you control of the way your music sounds, so you can
tailor it for your room and for the quality of the source. We can give you some idea of how each one
affects the music, but the only way to really tell is to try them yourself.
o The preset sound modes include modes using surround effects and modes using S.E.A. effects.
o Sound Mode effects cannot be recorded.
Surround effect modes
D. CLUB (Dance Club) Increases resonance and bass.
HALL Adds depth and brilliance to the sound, like in a concert hall.
STADIUM Adds clarity and spreads the sound, like in an outdoor stadium.
S.E.A. effect modes
ROCK Boosts low and high frequencies.
CLASSIC Set for wide and dynamic sound stereo systems.
POP Good for vocal music.
To get an effect, press the SOUND MODE button repeatedly until the Sound Mode you want appears
on the display. The frame around the “S.MODE” indicator lights up.
Each time you press the SOUND MODE button, the display changes
as shown below:
= D. CLUB = HALL = STADIUM = ROCK = CLASSIC = POP = FLAT = (back to the
beginning)
To cancel an effect, press the SOUND MODE button until “FLAT” appears
on the display. The frame around the “S.MODE” indicator goes out.
To recall the previous Sound Mode, press the SOUND MODE button again.
