Audio Adjustments
! 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 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
FLAT and a set equalizer curve.
