Balance L/R
This menu point is used to alter the balance in level between the left and right
channels, e.g. to compensate for non-symmetrical loudspeaker positioning.
The balance can be adjusted in increments of 1,25 dB; the screen always
displays the current value.
The primary purpose of the Balance setting in the Tone menu is to compensate
for inadequacies in the audio mix of the recording currently being played.
Tone Control
This menu point can be used to disable (by-pass) the
Music Receiver`s
tone
controls.
To switch off the tone controls, select the “OFF” setting. When the tone
controls are switched off, any adjustments you make to the following menu
points “BASS” and “TREBLE” have no effect.
Bass / Treble
(tone settings)
These two menu points can be used to alter the high-frequency (treble) and
low-frequency (bass) settings when required.
The primary purpose of the settings in the Tone menu is to compensate for
inadequacies in the audio mix of the recording currently being played.
If you wish to alter the fundamental tone settings for your loudspeakers, you
should make adjustments in the “Loudspeaker / Tone” menu.
Loudness
The
Music Receiver
is equipped with an automatic level-dependent volume
control system (
LOUDNESS
), designed to compensate for the frequency-
dependent sen-sitivity of the ear at very low volume, caused by the physiology
of the human auditory system.
This set-up option switches the level-dependent volume control on and off.
