Sound howls
(feedback)
A microphone is directed toward the
speaker.
Keep the speaker away from the area where the
microphone picks up sound.
Sound is amplified too much.
Lower the volume of the input device and locate
the microphone more closely to the sound
source.
The setting of the HPF switch is not
appropriate.
Set the HPF switch on 120Hz or 100Hz if you get
feedback in low frequency bands.
Each speaker sound
differs
(if multiple speakers
are used)
Settings for each speaker differ.
• (DXR series) Set the HPF and D-CONTOUR
switches of each speaker to the same
positions.

switch, and D-XSUB switch of each speaker to
the same position.

no higher than where the LIMIT indicator lights
occasionally.
• If sound continues to be distorted even if you
turn down the volume to the minimum, set the
MIC/LINE switch to the LINE position (if the
switch is set to MIC).

Use the LEVEL control to lower the output level to
a point no higher than where the LIMIT indicator
lights occasionally.
