Reinforcing the Bass Sound
Press SUBWOOFER LEVEL + or – (or
SUB/– control on the unit) to
increase or decrease the subwoofer sound.

in 3 steps (OFF, S.WOOFER1, S.WOOFER2).

Enjoying the Powerful Sound—RHYTHM AX
Using RHYTHM AX, harder-hitting beats intensify your
listening experience even at low sound levels.
RHYTHM AX also works even when the song has no “beat,”
such as classical music, so that you can listen to the rich
sound even at low sound levels.
On the remote control:
Press RHYTHM AX.
“RHYTHM AX” scrolls on the display.
• Each time you press the button, RHYTHM AX
turns on and off alternately. The RHYTHM AX
lamp also lights up.
On the unit:
Press up the RHYTHM AX control to turn
on or press down the RHYTHM AX control
to turn off.
Adjusting the Volume
You can adjust the volume level only while the unit is turned
on.
Press to increase the volume or
press VOLUME – to decrease it.
• The volume level can be adjusted in 33 steps
(VOL MIN, VOL 1 — VOL 31, and VOL
MAX).
When using the unit, turn the VOLUME control clockwise to
increase the volume or counterclockwise to decrease it.
For private listening
Connect a pair of headphones to the PHONES jack. No sound
comes out of the speakers. Be sure to turn down the volume before
connecting or putting on headphones.
Always set the volume to the minimum before
starting any source. If the volume is set to
extremely high level, a sudden blast of sound can
damage your hearing, speakers and/or
headphones.
• If you have turned off (on standby) the unit with
the volume level set at more than level “15,” the
volume level will be automatically set at level “15”
next time you turn on the unit.
To turn down the volume level temporarily
Press FADE MUTING on the remote control.
The volume level gradually decreases to
“VOL MIN.”
To restore the sound,
press the button again.
