Band8 5.8 kHz ~ 12 kHz (8 kHz)
Band9 9 kHz ~ 20 kHz (16 kHz)

Setting the Bandwidth (WIDTH (Q))

Setting contents:
3.0 (Initial setting) / 4.0 / 5.0

Adjusting the Level

Setting contents:
−7 to +7 (Initial setting: ±0)
Notes
• BAND2 and BAND8 are the same as the Bass and Treble controls.
Their Level adjustment can also be controlled by pressing YSETUP
and selecting Bass Level or Treble Level. Refer to "Adjusting Subwoofer
Level/Bass Level/Treble Level/Balance (Between Left and Right)/Fader
(Between Front and Rear)/Defeat" on page 17.
• Settings exceeding the frequency of adjacent bands are not available.
• While adjusting the 9BAND P-EQ, you should consider the frequency
response of the connected speakers.
• The 9-Band, Parametric EQ is used to customize the EQ PRESETS
settings.

Setting the Source Volume Level

The output level of each source is individually adjustable. For example, if
the TUNER level sounds lower than CD, its output can be adjusted
without affecting the other sources.
