standards from the Consumer Electronics Association (CEA). These standards were

- CEA2006 Specs: 18 watts RMS x 4 channels (at 4 ohms,
20Hz-20kHz, 1% THD-N)

total)

individually. Any adjustments to the Bass or Treble settings automatically
cancel the current EQ curve.

frequencies at low volumes. The Loudness can be set to 1, 2, 3, or Off.
2V/6Ch Preamp Outputs: The Dual XDMA6540 is equipped

illumination for its LCD screen and buttons. You can adjust the button & LCD
