Using the tone controls

Depending on what you are listening to, you
may want to adjust the bass or treble using the
front panel tone control.
1 Press TONE to select the frequency you
want to adjust.
Press to switch between BASS and TREBLE.
2 Use the MULTI JOG dial to change the
amount of bass or treble as necessary.
Wait about five seconds for your changes to be
input automatically.

Using the Sound Retriever

When audio data is removed during the
compression process, sound quality often
suffers from an uneven sound image. The
Sound Retriever feature employs new DSP
technology that helps bring CD quality sound
back to compressed 2-channel audio by
restoring sound pressure and smoothing
jagged artifacts left over after compression.
• Press S. RETRIEVER to switch the sound
retriever on or off.
