TONE AND BALANCE
TONE:
How good an audio program sounds is
largely determined by the mix of the tre-
ble, mid and bass levels. In fact, different
kinds of music and vocal programs usu-
ally sound better with different mixes of
treble, mid and bass.
BALANCE:
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 when listening to a ste-
reo recording or broadcast, changing
the right/left balance will increase the
volume of 1 group of sounds while de-
creasing the volume of another.
