playback a fuller sound. Listen to each of the
effects as you select them and use the one
that best enhances the playback of the track

The acoustics of different performance en-
vironments are not the same and depend
on the extent and contour of space through
which sound waves move and on how
sounds bounce off the stage, walls, floors
and ceilings. At a live performance you
hear music in three stages: direct sound,
early reflections, and late reflections, or re-
verberations. Those factors are programed
into the SFC circuitry to recreate the acous-
tics of various performance settings.

Auto TA and EQ (auto-time

Only when the multi-channel processor (e.g.,

operate this function.
The auto-time alignment is automatically ad-
justed for the distance between each speaker
and the listening position.
The auto-equalizer automatically measures
the car interior acoustic characteristics, and
then creates the auto-equalizer curve based
on that information.

To prevent accidents, never carry out auto TA and

ꢄ When a subwoofer is connected to this
unit, it will be adjusted automatically to
both subwoofer output and high pass fil-
ter setting for rear speaker.
If you carry out auto TA and EQ when a pre-
vious setting of this already exists, the set-
ting will be replaced.
Before operating the auto TA
and EQ function
!
Carry out auto TA and EQ in as quiet a
place as possible, with the car engine and
air conditioning switched off. Also cut
power to car phones or portable telephones
in the car, or remove them from the car be-
fore carrying out auto TA and EQ. Sounds
other than the measurement tone (sur-
rounding sounds, engine sound, tele-
phones ringing etc.) may prevent correct
measurement of the car interior acoustic
characteristics.
!
!
Be sure to carry out auto TA and EQ using
the supplied microphone. Using another
microphone may prevent measurement, or
result in incorrect measurement of the car
interior acoustic characteristics.
Carrying out auto TA and EQ
!
!
When front speaker is not connected, auto
TA and EQ cannot be carried out.
If the engine is left running, engine noise may
prevent correct auto TA and EQ.
When this unit is connected to a power
amp with input level control, auto TA and
EQ may not be possible if you lower power
amp input level. Set the power ampꢀs input
level to the standard position.
ꢁ
!
!
When this unit is connected to a power
amp with an LPF, turn off the LPF on the
power amp before carrying out auto TA and
EQ. In addition, the cross-over frequency
for built-in LPF of an active subwoofer
should be set to the highest frequency.
The time alignment value calculated by
auto TA and EQ may differ from the actual
distance in the following circumstances.
However, the distance has been calculated
by computer to be the optimum delay to
give accurate results for the circum-
stances, so please continue to use this
value.
The auto TA and EQ may differ depending on
where you place the microphone. If desired,
place the microphone on the front passenger
seat to carry out auto TA and EQ.
ꢄ When the reflected sound within a vehi-
cle is strong and delays occur.
ꢄ When delays occur for low sounds due
to the influence of the LPF on active
subwoofers or external amps.
