FILTER SELECTION

Filter settings can be adjusted when the unit is in either DAC
mode or disc playback mode.
Each time the FILTER button is pressed, the filter types cycle
from FIL1 → FIL2 → FIL1.
The filter setting has a memory retention function so that the
setting remains stored and unchanged even when the disc is
changed or the power is turned off.
Filter settings can be made for either Audio CDs or Super
Audio CDs.
When in DAC mode or playing back WMA/MP3 discs, set filters
as you would for Audio CDs.
