The steeper the slope, the morethe signal is attenuated.PhaseYou can switch phase (normal, reverse) foreach speaker unit’s input signal. When thecontinuity of sound between speakers is im-precise, try switching phase. This may improvethe continuity of sound between speakers.Points concerning network adjustmentsCut-off frequency adjustment!With the low-range speaker installed in therear tray, if you set Low LPF cut-off fre-quency high, bass sound is separated sothat it appears to come from the rear. Youare recommended to set Low LPF cut-offfrequency to 100 Hz or lower.!The maximum input power setting for mid-dle-range and high-range speakers isusually lower than low-range speakers.Please be aware that if the Mid HPF orHighHPF cut-off frequency is set lowerthan required, strong bass signal inputmay damage the speaker.Level adjustmentThe basic frequencies of many musical instru-ments are in the middle range. First performmiddle-range level adjustment, followed byhigh-range and then low-range level adjust-ment in that order.Slope adjustment!If you set a small absolute value for theslope (for a gentle slope), interference be-tween adjacent speaker units can easily re-sult in degraded frequency response.!If you set a large absolute value for theslope (for a steep slope), continuity ofsound between speaker units is degraded,and sounds appear to be separated.!If you set the slope to 0 dB/oct.

WARNINGAs a loud tone (noise) may be emitted from thespeakers when measuring the car’s interioracoustic characteristics, never perform auto TAor auto EQ while driving.CAUTION!Thoroughly check the conditions before per-forming auto TA and EQ as the speakers maybe damaged if these functions are performedwhen:—The speakers are incorrectly connected.(For example, when a rear speaker is con-nected as a subwoofer output.)—A speaker is connected to a power amp de-livering output higher than the speaker’smaximum input power capability.!If the microphone is placed in an unsuitableposition the measurement tone may becomeloud and measurement may take a long time,resulting in battery drainage. Be sure to placethe microphone in the specified location.Before operating the auto TA and EQfunction!Perform auto TA and EQ in a quiet place,with both the car engine and air condition-ing switched off. Also turn off any carphones or portable telephones in the car, orremove them from the car. Sounds otherthan the measurement tone (such as sur-rounding sounds, engine sound, tele-phones ringing) may prevent correctmeasurement of the car’s interior acousticcharacteristics.!Be sure to perform auto TA and EQ usingthe supplied microphone. Using anothermicrophone may prevent measurement, orresult in incorrect measurement of thecar’s interior acoustic characteristics.!In order to perform auto TA and EQ, thefront speaker must be connected.!When muting the front speaker units, autoTA and EQ cannot be carried out. (Refer topage 27.)!When this unit is connected to a poweramp with input level control, auto TA andEQ may not be possible if the power amp’sinput level is set below the standard level.!When this unit is connected to a poweramp with an LPF, turn this LPF off beforeperforming auto TA and EQ. Also set thecut-off frequency for the built-in LPF of anactive subwoofer to the highest frequency.!The time alignment value resulting fromauto TA and EQ has been calculated by acomputer and is the optimum delay timethat will give accurate results. Be sure touse the resulting value although it may dif-fer from the actual distance when:—The reflected sound within the car isstrong and delays occur.—The LPF on active subwoofers or exter-nal amps delay the lower sounds.!Auto TA and EQ changes the audio settingsas follows:—The fader/balance settings return to thecenter position. (Refer to Using fader/balance adjustment on page 22.)—The graphic equalizer curve switches toFlat. (Refer to page 28.)—When a subwoofer is connected to thisunit, it will be adjusted automatically toboth subwoofer output and high pass fil-ter setting for rear speaker.!Previous settings for auto TA and EQ will beoverwritten.!When connecting tweeters, please confirmthe tweeter’s usable frequency range.When you set the cut-off frequency, sethigher than the lowest usable frequency ofthe tweeter.!Auto TA uses higher range than 10 kHz formeasurement. Therefore, using the tweeterthat cannot reproduce 10 kHz frequencyrange may damage the tweeter. When autoTA and EQ is operated, be sure to set theappropriate cut-off frequency. Also, use thetweeter that can reproduce 10 kHz at thelowest usable frequency.En30Section02 Operating this unit
Performing auto TA and EQ1 Stop the car in a place that is quiet,close all the doors, windows and sun roof,and then turn the engine off.#If the engine is left running, the noise fromthe engine may cause incorrect auto TA and EQ.2 Fix the supplied microphone in the cen-ter of the headrest of the driver’s seat, fa-cing forward.#The auto TA and EQ may differ depending onwhere you place the microphone. If desired, placethe microphone on the front passenger seat toperform auto TA and EQ.3 Turn the ignition switch to ON or ACC.#If the air conditioner or heater is turned on,turn it off. The noise from the fan may cause in-correct auto TA and EQ.#Press SRC/OFF to turn the source on if thisunit is turned off.4 Select the position for the seat onwhich the microphone is placed.Refer to Using the position selector on page22.#If no position is selected before auto TA andEQ is started, FL is automatically selected.5 Press SRC/OFF and hold until the unitturns off.6 Press and hold EQ/DISP OFF to enterthe auto TA and EQ measurement mode.The front panel opens automatically.7 Plug the microphone into the micro-phone input jack on this unit.8 Press M.C. to start the auto TA and EQ.9 When the 10-second countdown starts,get out of the car and close the door within10 seconds.The measurement tone (noise) is outputtedfrom the speakers, and auto TA and EQ be-gins.#When all speakers are connected, auto TAand EQ is completed in about six minutes.#To stop auto TA and EQ, press M.C. again.#To cancel auto TA and EQ part way through,press BAND/.10 When auto TA and EQ is completed,Complete is displayed.When correct measurement of car interioracoustic characteristics is not possible, anerror message is displayed. (Refer to Auto TAand EQ on page 44.)11 Press BAND/ to cancel the auto TAand EQ mode.12 Store the microphone carefully in theglove compartment or another safe place.If the microphone is subjected to direct sun-light for an extended period, high tempera-tures may cause distortion, color change ormalfunction.En 31Section02Operating this unitOperating this unit
