SOUND ADJUSTMENTS
Turning on/off the BBE function
The BBE* function restores the brilliance and clarity of the original live sound in recording,
broadcasts, etc.
When a speaker reproduces sound, it introduces frequency-dependent phase shifting, causing
high-frequency sounds to take longer to reach the ear than low frequency sounds. The BBE
function adjusts the phase relationship between the low, mid and high frequencies by adding
a progressively longer delay time to the low and mid frequencies, so that all frequencies
reach the listener’s ears at the proper time.
In addition, the BBE function boosts low and high frequencies, which loudspeakers tend to be
less efficient in reproducing, through dynamic, program-driven augmentation. When combined
with the phase compensation feature, the resulting sound has a clearer, more finely detailed
“live” presence.
Each time you press BBE, the BBE function turns on and off alternately.
