Reinforcing Bass

(DBFB)

DBFB (Dynamic Bass Feedback) feature
intensifies low frequency sound for richer
bass reproduction.
You can select one of the two levels of
DBFB: “DBFB1” or “DBFB2”.   “DBFB2” is
more effective than “DBFB1”.

Press DBFB repeatedly until “DBFB1” or
“DBFB2” appears in the display.
Each time you press DBFB, the display
changes as follows:

b

 DBFB1

Note

When the Surround and DBFB features are set
to OFF, you can enjoy almost the same sound
as the CD source (Source Direct feature).
