ter equalizer curves separately by selecting a
center frequency, an equalizer level and a Q
factor for each band.

A separate

ated for each source.

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 ex-
cept for the center, and then reproducing a
5.1-ch. audio (Dolby Digital or DTS) and ad-
justing the center speaker output to the
balance you have already got among the
other speakers.
