Because one or two speaker systems (as front speakers) can
be connected to this unit, the SPEAKERS switches allow you
to select speaker system or B, or both at once.

Adjust the balance of the output volume to the left and right
speakers to compensate for sound imbalance caused by
speaker location or listening room conditions.

Note
This control is effective only for the sound from the front
speakers.

BASS

: Turn this clockwise to increase (or counter-

clockwise to decrease) the low frequency 
response.

TREBLE : Turn this clockwise to increase (or counter-

clockwise to decrease) the high frequency 
response.

Note
These controls are effective only for the sound from the front
speakers.

When you listen with headphones

Connect the headphones to the PHONES jack. You can listen
to the sound to be output from the front speakers through
headphones.
When listening with headphones privately, set both the
SPEAKERS A and switches to the OFF position and switch
off the digital sound field processor (so that no DSP program
name is illuminated on the display) by pressing the EFFECT
switch.
