Setting the sound focus
equalizer (SFEQ)
Clarifying the sound image of vocals and in-
struments allows the simple staging of a nat-
ural, pleasant sound environment. Even
greater listening enjoyment will be obtained if
seating positions are chosen carefully. FRT1
boosts the treble on the front output and the
bass on the rear output. FRT2 boosts the treble
and the bass on the front output and the bass
on the rear output. (The bass boost is the
same for both front and rear.) For both FRT1
and FRT2, H setting provides a more pro-
nounced effect than L setting.
