Taking Advantage of the
Sound Fields
How can you customize the sound fields?
Each sound field is composed of sound parameters —
variables of sound that create sound image. You can
customize the sound fields by adjusting some of the
sound parameters to best suit your listening situation.
See the following chart for the adjustable sound
parameters.
Once you customize the sound fields, they are stored in
memory unless the amplifier is unplugged for about 1
week.
The adjustable parameters for each sound field are
shown on the charts below.
Note
The EFFECT parameter allows you to adjust the overall
presence of the sound field.

To take advantage of Dolby Pro Logic Surround sound,
go to “Getting the Most Out of Dolby Pro Logic
Surround Sound” on page 13. This section describes
