Recalling equalizer curves
There are six stored equalizer curves which
you can easily recall at any time. Here is a list
of the equalizer curves:

! CUSTOM is an adjusted equalizer curve
that you create.
! A separate CUSTOM curve can be created
for each source. (The built-in CD player and
the multi-CD player are set to the same
equalizer adjustment setting automati-
cally.) If you make adjustments, the equali-
zer curve settings will be memorized in
CUSTOM.
! When EQ FLAT is selected no supplement
or correction is made to the sound. This is
useful to check the effect of the equalizer
curves by switching alternatively between
EQ FLAT and a set equalizer curve.
