Section Before You Start 01 About the multi language display This unit allows you to select the OEL display language. This manual uses English displays in the explanations. About this manual This unit features a number of sophisticated functions ensuring superior reception and operation. All the functions have been designed for the easiest possible use, but many are not self-explanatory.

English 6 Press BAND to cancel the time alignment mode. 1 2 About the network function The network function lets you divide the audio signal into different frequency bands, and then reproduce each of them through separate speaker units. You can then make precise adjustments to the reproduced frequency band (with a low-pass filter or high-pass filter), level, phase and other parameters to match the characteristics of each speaker unit. 4 1 2 3 4 5 Front speaker left Front speaker right Rear speaker right Rear speaker left Subwoofer 5 3 Front speaker leftFront speaker rightRear speaker rightRear speaker leftSubwoofer # You cannot select subwoofer when the subwoofer output is off. # You cannot adjust the time alignment when neither Front Left nor Front Right is selected in the position selector mode. En 41 Section 08 Audio Adjustments Adjustable parameters The network function enables adjustment of the following parameters. Make adjustments in line with the reproduced frequency band and characteristics of each connected speaker unit. Level (dB) Reproduced frequency band dB/oct. ). Phase You can switch phase (normal, reverse) for each speaker units input signal. When the continuity of sound between speakers is imprecise, try switching phase. This may improve the continuity of sound between speakers. Pass Slope (dB/oct. ) Level Frequency (Hz) Cut-off frequency of HPF Cut-off frequency of LPF Points concerning network adjustments Cut-off frequency adjustment !With the low-range speaker installed in the rear tray, if you set Low LPF cut-off frequency high, bass sound is separated so that it appears to come from the rear. You are recommended to set Low LPF cut-off frequency to 100 Hz or lower. The maximum input power setting for middle- and high-range speakers is usually lower than that for low-range speakers. Remember that if Mid HPF or High HPF cutoff frequency is set lower than required, strong bass signal input may damage the speaker. Level adjustment The basic frequencies of many musical instruments are in the middle range. First perform middle-range level adjustment, followed by high-range and then low-range level adjustment in that order. If you set a small absolute value for the slope (for a gentle slope), interference between adjacent speaker units can easily result in degraded frequency response. If you set a large absolute value for the slope (for a steep slope), continuity of sound between speaker units is degraded, and sounds appear to be separated. Reproduced frequency band Adjusting the HPF (high-pass filter) or LPF (low-pass filter) cut-off frequency lets you set the reproduced frequency band for each speaker unit. The HPF cuts frequencies (low) below the set frequency, letting high frequencies through. The LPF cuts frequencies (high) above the set frequency, letting low frequencies through. Level The difference in reproduced levels between speaker units can be corrected. Slope Adjusting the HPF/LPF slope (filter attenuation slope) lets you adjust the continuity of sound between speaker units.
