The first adjustment is Treble Cut, which rolls off
the high-frequency level of the output signal at specific
frequencies in accordance with the chart shown in
Appendix C. To reduce the amount of high-frequency
information, make certain that the Treble Cut
line is highlighted, and use the ‹ and › Menu Control
buttons i to create the desired level. Note that since
this is a subtractive filter, the on-screen indications are
shown as negatives, such as -2 dB. When the desired
Treble Cut has been selected, press the ¤ Menu
Control button to move to the next line.
The Bass Boost adjustment enables you to boost the level
of low-frequency content in accordance with the chart
shown in Appendix C. To increase the amount of low-
frequency information, make certain that Bass
Boost is highlighted and use the ‹ and › Menu
Control buttons i to create the desired level. Note
that since this is an additive function, the on-screen
indications are shown as positives, such as +2 dB.
When the desired Bass Boost has been selected, press the
¤ Menu Control button to move to the next line.
The Subwoofer Trim option gives you the opportunity
to change the actual volume level of the subwoofer out-
put above or below that of the other channels. This is
different from the adjustments made at the Input Level
menu, where you are adjusting the electrical balance
between the 2.0 and your amplifiers. Here, the adjust-
ment is a true volume level change. To change the
subwoofer trim, make certain that Subwfr Trim
is highlighted and use the ‹ and › Menu Control
buttons i to adjust the level. When the desired level
is established press the ¤ Menu Control button to
move to the next line.
The Center control allows you to select the Center
Channel option for this input. This is an override to the
normal settings for the selected mode. Make certain that
the Effects Menu is on the screen and that the
Center line is highlighted.
Use the ‹ and › Menu Control buttons i to select
from among the following options:
Normal leaves the center setting as it would be
for the mode selected.
Wide creates a slightly diffused center sound stage
by feeding a small amount of the center channel
signal into the front left and right speakers.
Boost provides a 2dB boost above the calibrated
level for the center channel to create the effect of a
narrowly focused center soundstage.
OFF turns off the center channel speaker position
for this input. That creates a very “wide” or
phantom center channel soundfield.
When the desired center mode is on the screen, press the
¤ Menu Control button i to enter the setting and
move to the next adjustment on this menu.
The Surround option enables you to turn off the
surround speakers for this input. Use the ‹ or › Menu
Control buttons i to leave the surround speakers on,
or to turn them off.
To move to the final default adjustment on the Effects
Menu, press the ¤ Menu Control button i until
Balance > is highlighted. Press the
› Menu Control button i to move to the Balance
Adjust screen.
