Front image enhancer (F.I.E.)

The F.I.E. (Front Image Enhancer) function is a
simple method of enhancing front imaging by
cutting mid- and high-range frequency output
from the rear speakers, limiting their output to
low-range frequencies. You can select the fre-
quency you want to cut.

ance adjustment (refer to page 10) and adjust
front and rear speaker volume levels until they
are balanced.
! Turn the F.I.E. function off when using a 2-
speaker system.

Adjusting source levels

SLA (source level adjustment) lets you adjust
the volume level of each source to prevent ra-
dical changes in volume when switching be-
tween sources.
! Settings are based on the volume level of
the FM tuner, which remains unchanged.
1 Compare the FM tuner volume level
with the level of the source you wish to ad-
just (e.g., built-in CD player).
