Powerful is a curve in which low- and high-pitched sounds
are boosted.
Natural is a curve in which low- and high-pitched sounds
are slightly boosted.
Vocal is a curve in which the midrange, which is the human
vocal range, is boosted.
Flat is a flat curve in which nothing is boosted.
Custom1 is an adjusted equalizer curve that you create. If
you select this curve, the effect is applied to all AV sources.
Custom2 is an adjusted equalizer curve that you create. If

Adjusting the equalizer curve
automatically (Auto EQ)
By measuring the vehicle’s acoustics, the equalizer curve can be
adjusted automatically to suit the vehicle interior.
WARNING
A loud tone (noise) may be emitted from the speakers when
measuring the vehicle’s acoustics. Never perform Auto EQ
measurement while driving.
CAUTION
Thoroughly check the conditions before performing Auto
EQ, as the speakers may be damaged if this is performed
under the following conditions:
When the speakers are incorrectly connected. (For exam-
ple, when a rear speaker is connected as a subwoofer
output.)
When a speaker is connected to a power amp delivering
output higher than the speaker’s maximum input power
capability.
If a microphone for acoustical measurement (sold
separately) is not placed in an appropriate location, the
measurement tone may become loud and measurement
may take a long time, resulting in battery drainage. Be sure
to place the microphone in the specified location.
Before operating the Auto EQ
function
Perform Auto EQ in as quiet a place as possible, with the
vehicle engine and air conditioning switched off. Also, cut
power to car phones or cellular phones in the vehicle, or
