Sound
You can adjust the sound settings (bass,
middle and treble) separately for each
source (radio, CD, CD changer, USB and
AUX). The volume distribution (balance and
fader) and X-BASS settings apply to all the
audio sources.
This device features a digital 3-band equal-
izer. This equalizer allows for selecting one
frequency each for bass, treble and middle
and to adjust the level for the selected fre-
quency between -7 and +7. In addition, you
can adjust the quality factor for bass and
middle.
Note
The quality factor determines the fi lter
quality of the equalizer, i.e. the edge
steepness and fi lter bandwidth, de-
pendent upon the characteristic fre-
quency.
A low quality factor means a low edge
steepness and a high fi lter bandwidth;
a high quality factor means a high edge
steepness and a low fi lter bandwidth.
