Sound Adjustment
Notes
• With some songs, the music will sound distorted
when you use the DBFB system with the graphic
equalizer if the bass is too strong.  Adjust the bass
slowly while listening to music so that you can
monitor the effect of the adjustment.
• Cancelling GROOVE sets DBFB to “DBFB 
and flattens the equalizer curve. To cancel the
DBFB level, press DBFB until the indication
disappears. Adjust the equalization to obtain the
effect you desire.
To listen through the headphones
Connect the headphones to PHONES jack. No
sound will come from the speakers.
Note
If you have connected a super woofer, please note
that sound comes from the super woofer even when
the headphones are connected. Turn off the power
of the super woofer when using headphones.
