1Select the “Sound” tab and select the
desired item to be set.TONE AND BALANCE
TONE:
How good an audio program sounds is
largely  determined  by  the  mix  of  the
treble, mid and bass levels. In fact, dif-
ferent  kinds  of  music  and  vocal  pro-
grams  usually  sound  better  with
different mixes of treble, mid and bass.
BALANCE:
A good balance of the left and right ste-
reo channels and of the front and rear
sound levels is also important.
Keep  in  mind  that  when  listening  to  a
stereo  recording  or  broadcast,  chang-
ing  the  right/left  balance  will  increase
the volume of 1 group of sounds while
decreasing the volume of another.
