About WMA
For viewing LCD comfortably
Due to its construction, the view angle of the
LCD screen is limited. The viewing angle (verti-
cal and horizontal) can be increased, however,
by using BRIGHT to adjust the black density of
the video. When using for the first time, adjust
the black density in accordance with the view-
ing angle (vertical and horizontal) to adjust for
clear viewing. DIMMER can also be used to
adjust the brightness of the LCD screen itself
to suit your personal preference.
The Windows Media" logo printed on the box
indicates that this unit can play back WMA
data.
WMA is short for Windows Media Audio and
refers to an audio compression technology
that is developed by Microsoft Corporation.
WMA data can be encoded by using Windows
Media Player version 7 or later.
Microsoft, Windows Media, and the Windows
logo are trademarks, or registered trademarks

Correcting the subwooferꢀs phase
Selecting a cross-over
frequency
If trying to boost the bass output of the sub-
woofer doesnꢀt do much or rather makes you
feel that the bass gets more murky, this may
indicate that the subwooferꢀs output and bass
content you hear over other speakers cancel
each other out. To remove this problem, try
changing the phase setting for the subwoofer.
You can select a frequency, under which

fer. If the installed speakers include one whose

!
Carry out auto TA and EQ in as quiet a
place as possible, with the car engine and
air conditioning switched off. Also cut
power to car phones or portable telephones
in the car, or remove them from the car be-
fore carrying out auto TA and EQ. Sounds
other than the measurement tone (sur-
rounding sounds, engine sound, tele-
phones ringing etc.) may prevent correct
measurement of the car interior acoustic
characteristics.
!
Be sure to carry out auto TA and EQ using
the supplied microphone. Using another
microphone may prevent measurement, or
result in incorrect measurement of the car
interior acoustic characteristics.
Carrying out auto TA and EQ
1
Stop the car in a place that is as quiet
as possible, close all doors, windows and
the sun roof, and then turn the engine off.
If the engine is left running, engine noise may
prevent correct auto TA and EQ.
!
!
When front speaker is not connected, auto
TA and EQ cannot be carried out.
When this unit is connected to a power
amp with input level control, auto TA and
EQ may not be possible if you lower power
amp input level. Set the power ampꢀs input
level to the standard position.
When this unit is connected to a power
amp with an LPF, turn off the LPF on the
power amp before carrying out auto TA and
EQ. In addition, the cut-off frequency for
built-in LPF of an active subwoofer should
be set to the highest frequency.
The time alignment value calculated by
auto TA and EQ may differ from the actual
distance in the following circumstances.
However, the distance has been calculated
by computer to be the optimum delay to
give accurate results for the circum-
stances, so please continue to use this
value.
2
Fix the supplied microphone in the cen-
ter of the headrest of the driverꢂs seat, fa-
cingforward, usingthe belt (sold
separately).
The auto TA and EQ may differ depending on
where you place the microphone. If desired,
place the microphone on the front passenger
seat to carry out auto TA and EQ.

!
ꢄ When the reflected sound within a vehi-
cle is strong and delays occur.
ꢄ When delays occur for low sounds due
to the influence of the LPF on active
subwoofers or external amps.

Turn the ignition switch to ON or ACC.
If the carꢀs air conditioner or heater is turned
on, turn it off. Noise from the fan in the air

ment. Please record with the correct for-
mat. (For details, contact the manufacturer
of the application.)
Playback of CD-R/CD-RW discs may be-
come impossible in case of direct exposure
to sunlight, high temperatures, or the sto-
rage conditions in the vehicle.
Titles and other text information recorded
on a CD-R/CD-RW disc may not be dis-
played by this unit (in the case of audio
data (CD-DA)).
This unit conforms to the track skip func-
tion of the CD-R/CD-RW disc. The tracks
containing the track skip information are
skipped automatically (in case of audio
data (CD-DA)).
!
This unit allows playback of MP3/WMA
files on CD-ROM, CD-R and CD-RW discs.
Disc recordings compatible with level 1
and level 2 of ISO9660 and with the Romeo
and Joliet file system can be played back.
It is possible to play back multi-session
compatible recorded discs.
MP3/WMA files are not compatible with
packet write data transfer.
The maximum number of characters which
can be displayed for a file name, including
the extension (.mp3 or .wma), is 64, from
the first character.
The maximum number of characters which
can be displayed for a folder name is 64.
In case of files recorded according to the
Romeo file system, only the first 64 charac-
ters can be displayed.
When playing discs with MP3/WMA files
and audio data (CD-DA) such as CD-EXTRA
and MIXED-MODE CDs, both types can be
played only by switching mode between
MP3/WMA and CD-DA.
The folder selection sequence for playback
and other operations becomes the writing
sequence used by the writing software. For
this reason, the expected sequence at the
time of playback may not coincide with the
actual playback sequence. However, there
also is some writing software which per-
mits setting of the playback order.
Some audio CDs contain tracks that merge
into one another without a pause. When
these discs are converted to MP3/WMA
files and burned to a CD-R/CD-RW/CD-
ROM, the files will be played back on this
player with a short pause between each
one, regardless of the length of the pause
between tracks on the original audio CD.

This is the international standard for the for-
mat logic of CD-ROM folders and files. For the
ISO9660 format, there are regulations for the
following two levels.
Level 1:
The file name is in 8.3 format (the name con-
sists of up to 8 characters, half-byte English
capital letters and half-byte numerals and the
ꢁ_ꢂ sign, with a file-extension of three charac-
ters).
Chapter
DVD titles are in turn divided into chapters
which are numbered in the same way as the
chapters of a book. With DVD video discs fea-
turing chapters, you can quickly find a desired
scene with chapter search.
Level 2:
The file name can have up to 31 characters (in-
cluding the separation mark ꢁ.ꢂ and a file ex-
tension). Each folder contains less than 8
hierarchies.
Extended formats
Joliet:
Dolby Digital
Dolby Digital provides multi-channel audio
from up to 5.1 independent channels. This is
the same as the Dolby Digital surround sound
system used in theaters.
File names can have up to 64 characters.
Romeo:
File names can have up to 128 characters.
Linear PCM (LPCM)/Pulse code
modulation
This stands for linear pulse code modulation,
which is the signal recording system used for
music CDs and DVDs. Generally, DVDs are re-
corded with higher sampling frequency and
bit rate than CDs. Therefore, DVDs can provide
higher sound quality.
DTS
This stands for Digital Theater Systems. DTS is
a surround system delivering multi-channel
audio from up to 6 independent channels.
m3u
Playlists created using the ꢁWINAMPꢂ soft-
ware have a playlist file extension (.m3u).
ID3 tag
This is a method of embedding track-related
information in an MP3 file. This embedded in-

MP3
Optical digital output/input
MP3 is short for MPEGAudio Layer 3. It is an
audio compression standard set by a working
group (MPEG) of the ISO (International Stan-
dards Organization). MP3 is able to compress
audio data to about 1/10th the level of a con-
ventional disc.
By transmitting and receiving audio signals in
a digital signal format, the chance of sonic
quality deteriorating in the course of transmis-
sion is minimized. An optical digital output/
input is designed to transmit and receive digi-
tal signals optically.
MPEG
Packet write
This stands for Moving Pictures Experts
Group, and is an international video image
compression standard. Some DVDs feature di-
gital audio compressed and recorded using
this system.
This is a general term for a method of writing
on CD-R, etc., at the time required for a file,
just as is done with files on floppy or hard
discs.
Parental lock
Multi-angle
Some DVD video discs with violent or adult-or-
iented scenes feature parental lock which pre-
vents children from viewing such scenes. With
this kind of disc, if you set the unitꢀs parental
lock level, playback of scenes inappropriate for
children will be disabled, or these scenes will
be skipped.
With regular TV programs, although multiple
cameras are used to simultaneously shoot
scenes, only images from one camera at a
time are transmitted to your TV. Some DVDs
feature scenes shot from multiple angles, let-
ting you choose your viewing angle as desired.
Multi-audio (Multilingual dialog)
Some DVDs feature dialog recorded in multi-
ple languages. Dialog in up to 8 languages
can be recorded on a single disc, letting you
choose as desired.
Playback control (PBC)
This is a playback control signal recorded on
Video CDs (Version 2.0). Using menu displays
provided by Video CDs with PBC lets you enjoy
playback of simple interactive software and
software with search functions. You can also
enjoy viewing high- and standard-resolution
still images.
Multi-session
Multi-session is a recording method that al-
lows additional data to be recorded later.
When recording data on a CD-ROM, CD-R or
CD-RW, etc., all data from beginning to end is
treated as a single unit or session. Multi-ses-
sion is a method of recording more than 2 ses-
sions on one disc.
Region number
DVD players and DVD discs feature region
numbers indicating the area in which they
were purchased. Playback of a DVD is not pos-
sible unless it features the same region num-
ber as the DVD player. This unitꢀs region
number is displayed on the bottom of the unit.
Multi-subtitle
Subtitles in up to 32 languages can be re-
corded on a single DVD, letting you choose as
desired.

Additional Information
Title
DVD video discs have high data capacity, en-
abling recording of multiple movies on a sin-
gle disc. If, for example, one disc contains
three separate movies, they are divided into
title 1, title 2 and title 3. This lets you enjoy the
convenience of title search and other func-
tions.
VBR
VBR is short for variable bit rate. Generally
speaking CBR (constant bit rate) is more
widely used. But by flexibly adjusting the bit
rate according to the needs of audio compres-
sion, it is possible to achieve compression-
priority sound quality.
WMA
WMA is short for Windows Media" Audio
and refers to an audio compression technol-
ogy that is developed by Microsoft Corpora-
tion. WMA data can be encoded by using
Windows Media Player version 7 or later.
