TALK RADIO mode
Talk radio broadcasts can be greatly affected by either the
microphone selection or the boosting of low frequencies by some
radio stations. They do so in an attempt to improve speech when
heard through conventional radios. In high-quality audio products,
this results in sound that is unnatural or bass heavy. By selecting
the TALK RADIO mode, your Wave
automatically adjusts to compensate for artificially boosted low
frequencies.
When the radio is playing, press Play mode twice to turn
the TALK RADIO mode on (TALK RADIO– ON) or
off (TALK RADIO– OFF).
Note: The TALK RADIO setting is automatically cancelled when
you tune to another station, switch to another source, or
turn your Wave
SoundTouch™ music system off.
