(b) Tone and balance
How good an audio program sounds to
you is largely determined by the mix of
the treble, midrange, and bass levels. In
fact, different kinds of music and vocal
programs usually sound better with differ-
ent mixes of treble, mid−range and bass.
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 if you are listening to
a stereo recording or broadcast, changing
the right/left balance will increase the vol-
ume of one group of sounds while de-
creasing the volume of another.

the balance between the front and rear
speakers, touch the “Front” or “Rear”
switch on the screen, and to adjust
the balance between the left and right,
