Sound Quality (SQ): In addition
to the bass and treble adjustments (+/- 12dB @ 100 Hz and 10kHz), the unit's
Sound Quality function allows you to apply various sound adjustments at the
touch of a button in accordance with your musical tastes. There are four SQ
settings:

sound; exaggerates bass and treble

deep sound; slightly emphasizes bass and treble

function and the Mute indicator light glows in the display.

holding the Source button turns the unit off completely. After the unit has been
turned off, you can use the DISP button to switch the clock display and
face/button illumination on and off. If you leave the clock display and

stays lit even with the clock display and other button illumination
turned off.
