YPAO Volume | On/Off | When “YPAO Volume” is set to “On”, the balance between the bass and treble ranges is adjusted automatically in conjunction with the volume, which allows you to enjoy a natural sound quality balance, even at low volumes. | |
- If you will use a subwoofer, install it before running YPAO measurements to ensure a smooth connection between the bass and midrange. If you feel the volume of the bass is too loud or low, adjust to the desired volume with “SW” of “Level” item.
