lected range are outputted from the front or
rear speakers.

Boosting the bass

Bass boost function boosts the bass level of
sound lower than 100 Hz. The more the bass
level is increased, the more the bass sound is
emphasized and the entire sound becomes
powerful. When using this function with the
subwoofer, the sound under the cut-off fre-
quency is boosted.

BASS BOOST.
2 Push MULTI-CONTROL up or down to
select a desired level.
0 to +6 is displayed as the level is increased or
decreased.

Front image enhancer (F.I.E.)

The F.I.E. (Front Image Enhancer) function is a
simple method of enhancing front imaging by
cutting mid- and high-range frequency output
from the rear speakers, limiting their output to
low-range frequencies. You can select the fre-
quency you want to cut.
Precaution
When the F.I.E. function is deactivated, the rear
speakers output sound of all frequencies, not just
bass sounds. Reduce the volume before disenga-

Adjusting source levels

SLA (source level adjustment) lets you adjust
the volume level of each source to prevent ra-
dical changes in volume when switching be-
tween sources.
! Settings are based on the FM tuner volume
level, which remains unchanged.
1 Compare the FM tuner volume level
with the level of the source you wish to ad-
just.
2 Use MULTI-CONTROL to select SLA.
3 Push MULTI-CONTROL up or down to
adjust the source volume.
Each time MULTI-CONTROL is pushed up or
down, source volume increases or decreases.
SLA +4 to SLA –4 is displayed as the source
volume is increased or decreased.
Notes
! The MW/LW tuner volume level can also be
adjusted with source level adjustments.
