STEREO/EFFECT
Switches the effect speakers (center, front effect, rear and rear
center) on and off. If you turn off the output of these speakers using
STEREO/EFFECT
, all DTS and Dolby Digital audio signals are
directed to the main left and right channels except for the LFE
channel.
Cautions
• When DTS or Dolby Digital signals are mixed, the left and right
main channel signal levels may not match.
• If “1B MAIN SP” on the SET MENU is set to “SMALL” and “1E
LFE/BASS OUT” is set to “SW”, or “1E LFE/BASS OUT” is set
to “BOTH”, the LFE signals will be output from the subwoofer.
q
FM/AM
Switches the reception band between FM and AM.
w
A/B/C/D/E
Selects one of the 5 preset station groups (A to E).
e
BASS EXTENSION ON/OFF
When pushed in (ON), this feature boosts the bass frequency of the
left and right main channels by +6 dB (60 Hz) while maintaining
overall tonal balance. This boost is useful if you do not use a
subwoofer.
However, this boost may not be noticeable if the main speakers are
set to “SMALL” and the bass output mode is set to “SW.”
