Setup variable 'EQ 1' - allows you to set default bass and treble settings for use with all input sources in all audio
modes excluding DVD Audio. Many systems allow only adjustment of bass and treble levels at fixed frequency
points. Your processor allows you to adjust level and frequency to aid in adjusting your room for a flat frequency
response. Set bass and treble to the values you would like have restored into the variable 'EQ 1' whenever your
unit comes out of sleep (see Select variable 'EQ 1' under OPERATION Equalization).

Set subwoofer phase - In addition to the subwoofer location adjustment (see Speaker Location above), your
processor has an option to 'invert the phase' of the information sent to the subwoofer. This adjustment is
sometimes needed to correct 'lack of low end' problems created with the interaction between the subwoofer and
other large speakers in a listening room. The correct subwoofer phase adjustment is the one, which allows the
loudest listening level.
