Adjusting the frequency of the
subwoofer(s)
To match the characteristics of the connected
subwoofer(s), you can cut out the unwanted
high and middle frequency signals entering
the subwoofer(s). By setting the cut-off
frequency (see the diagram below), the
subwoofer(s) will output only low frequency
signals so you can get a clearer sound image.
1 Press (SOURCE) to select a source (tuner,
CD, or MD).
2 Press (SOUND) for two seconds.
3 Press (SOUND) repeatedly until “SUB”
appears.
4 Rotate the dial to select the desired cut-
off frequency.
The cut-off frequency in the display
changes as follows:
62 n 78 n 99 n 125* n 157 n 198 Hz
* Factory-set frequency
5 Press (SOUND) for two seconds.
After the frequency setting is complete, the
display returns to the normal playback
mode.
