The adjustable frequency range differs depending on the channels (speakers).
Concrete examples Calculating the time correction value for the front left speaker on the diagram below. Conditions: Distance between farthest speaker and listening position: 2.25 m (88-3/4") Distance between front left speaker and listening position: 0.5 m (20") Calculation: L = 2.25 m (88-3/4") 0.5 m (20")= 1.75 m (68-3/4") Compensation time = 1.x 1000 = 5.1 (ms) In other words, setting the time correction value for the front left speaker to 5.1 (ms) sets a virtual distance matching the distance to the farthest speaker.
Adjust the slope of H.P.F. (HP SLOPE) by turning the Rotary encoder, then press MODE. Adjust L.P.F. by performing steps 6 and 7. Adjust the level (LEVEL) by turning the Rotary encoder, then press MODE.
Press the MODE to return to step 6.

About DVDs

Music CDs and DVDs have grooves (tracks) in which the digital data is recorded. The data is represented as microscopic pits recorded into the track these pits are read by a laser beam to play the disc. On DVDs, the density of the tracks and pits is twice that of CDs, so DVDs can contain more data in less space.

Footnotes:

Uses commercially available mini jack input (3.5mm) Are NOT Versatile-link Ready but include a mute mode feature--- YOU MUST check radio harness for a pink/black wire before making a purchase. These adapters take the place of the Alpine CD Changer. If you have a cd changer it must be disconnected and will no longer function. In order for the radio to recognize the adapter, you must enable "AUX" input option from within the menu.
