Adjusting the volume
Adjusting the volume (button ➋)

"Night" mode
This type of digital, dynamic
compression of the signal permits
the user to avoid large differences
in playback level between weak
and powerful signals. Weak signals
are increased so that the bass is
more present and satisfactory,
even at low listening levels, while
powerful signals are decreased
in amplitude. This function allows
for an excellent listening comfort
in bass response, even at very
low listening levels, and to avoid
as well disturbing the neighbors or others
nearby.
The default message "FOCAL
Electra" appears highlighted on
the display when in "Night" mode
(button ➌).

Program application
Three digital memory settings are
accessible on the remote control
(button ➍). The factory settings
correspond generally to a range
of applications. The "Hi-fi" mode
corresponds to a setting, which
is as linear as possible, with a
well-integrated and deep bass.
"Cinema" is calibrated to be
more demonstrative and dynamic
to highlight performance in film
soundtracks. In the "User" mode,
all corrections and filters are
deactivated. All these settings can
be modified at will. Consult the
table at the end of the manual to
return to the factory settings.
