A Preset can be modified at will to obtain a different sound from each station. 
Now a detailed description of the different settings. 
 

Sec. 5-1 BRILLIANCE 

Controls high frequencies and thus brilliance of the sound. 
We recommend 3.0 
 

Sec. 5-2 HF CLIPPING 

Controls the timbre of high tones: either SOFT 0.0 or more c6.0 
We recommend 0.5 
 

Sec. 5-3 PRESENCE 

Controls medium frequencies whose range of values also includes voice signals. 
We recommend 0.5 
 

Sec. 5-4 MID BASS BOOST 

Controls medium to low frequencies 
We recommend 0.0 
 

Sec. 5-5 LOW BASS BOOST

 

Controls low frequencies in two modes: 
MODE A : Increases to obtain a peaking Bass 
At full scale of MODE A there is automatic change-over to MODE B 
MODE B : cancels mode A and increases a more muffled, softer bass. 
 

Sec. 5-6 BASS MATCHING 

Used to keep the Bass if Low Bass Boost is set high. 
If low bass amplification is increased too much, sometimes the bass tends to go off its limit (it does not leave the 
75KHz modulation. The off limits bass effect is purely an acoustic effect ). 
By using this control, high percentages of Low Bass Boost can be obtained, however, keeping the bass always 
under control. 
Bass Matching 0% = Free bass 
Bass Matching 100% = Bass tied to medium frequency 
We recommend 30%
