Adjusting 3-band parametric equalizer
For CUSTOM1 and CUSTOM2equalizer
curves, you can adjust the front, rear and center
equalizer curves separately by selecting a cen-
ter frequency, an equalizer level and a Q factor
for each band.
• A separate CUSTOM1 curve can be created
for each source.
•A CUSTOM2curve can be created common
to all sources.
• The center speaker largely determines the
sound image and getting the balance right isn’t
easy. We recommend reproducing a 2-ch. audio
(a CD for example) and getting the balance right
among the speakers except for the center, and
then reproducing a 5.1-ch. audio (Dolby Digital
or DTS) and adjusting the center speaker output
to the balance you have already got among the
other speakers.
