Listening to music with desired tone and sound field

This unit permits selection of a variety of preset equalizer patterns as well as registration of equalizer
patterns created by the user. The "S.direct" (Source direct) mode allows you to reproduce pure sound
by bypassing the sound processing circuitry such as the EX.BASS (Extra Bass) and equalizer circuits.

This unit permits selection of an equalizer pattern, the DSP playback or the surround playback as de-
sired. The equalizer effect applied to the audio can be recorded together with it. (If DSP playback or
surround playback is selected, its effect cannot be recorded together with the audio.)
