Adjusting the acoustic image (BI PHANTOM)
To achieve sound with a sense of presence, the center speaker must be placed directly in front of the
driver’s seat and the passenger’s seat. With this function, the center channel information is
distributed to the left and right speakers. This creates an acoustic image simulating a center speaker
directly in front of the listener. (This only has an effect when “DOLBY PL II MOVIE” or “Neo:6
CINEMA” is selected at “PCM Output Settings” (page 80). The audio source must be playing back
Dolby Digital or DTS signals with center channel information.)

Performing time correction automatically
(Automated Time Correction)
Due to the particular conditions inside the vehicle, there is a major difference between the distances
of the various speakers and the listening position. This function uses the included measurement
microphone to automatically measure and analyze the distances between the speakers and the
listening position and perform the optimum time correction.
• Preparations must be made before performing the automatic adjustment procedure. Refer
to page 12.
• The PXI-H990’s automatic adjustments take into account the delay time between the time
at which the signals are input to the speakers until the sound is output. This does not
correspond to the actual distance.
• With the automatic adjustments, the average delay time within the speakers’ playable
frequency range is measured. Measurements may not be possible when using special
speakers or in special playback environments. If this is the case, perform the adjustments
manually.
• The AUTO TCR operation cannot be performed if the included microphone is not
connected.
• When performing automatic adjustment, set the head unit to the TUNER mode before
adjusting.
1 Before starting the automatic adjustment procedure, park the vehicle in a
quiet place to avoid the effects of external sounds.
2 Set the vehicle’s key to the ACC position.
Do not start the engine. The vibrations may make it impossible to achieve
the proper adjustment values.

Performing time correction manually (Time
Correction)
Though sufficient correction can be achieved with the “Automated Time Correction” automatic
adjustments, it is also possible for the user to calculate the correction values and make the
adjustments manually. This manual adjustment requires sufficient knowledge and experience,
however, so we suggest you have it performed at your authorized Alpine dealer.
1 Check that the head unit defeat mode is off.
2 Sit in the listening position (the driver’s seat, for example) and measure the
distance (in meters) between your head and the various speakers.
3 Calculate the difference in distance between the farthest speaker and the
other speakers.
L = (distance of farthest speaker) – (distance of other speakers)
26-EN
4 Divide the distances calculated for the different speakers by the speed of
sound (343 m/s temperature 20°C).
This value is the time correction value for the different speakers.
• The speed of sound fluctuates according to the temperature. The accurate speed of sound
can be achieved with the formula shown below.
Speed of sound = 331.45 + C × T
C: 0.607
T: Temperature (°C)
• Concrete examples
1. 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 = 1.75 ÷ 343 × 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.
5.1ms
0.5m
2.25m
The sound is uneven because the distance
between the listening position and the
different speakers is different.
The difference in the distance between the
front left and rear right speakers is 1.75
meters (68-3/4").
Time correction eliminates the difference
between the time required for the sound
from the different speakers to reach the
listening position.
Setting the time correction of the front left
speaker to 5.1 ms makes it possible to
coordinate the distance from the listening
position to the speaker.

Equalizer adjustments
The PXI-H990 is equipped with a graphic equalizer and parametric equalizer. You can set the
Equalizer to whatever values you want.
Graphic equalizer
The level of the front, rear and center channels can be adjusted separately for 31 bands and the
subwoofer can be adjusted for 10 bands (a total of 206 bands) to achieve the desired sound field.
Parametric equalizer
The frequency bands of the graphic equalizer are fixed. This makes it very difficult to correct for
undesired peaks and dips at specific frequencies. The parametric equalizer’s center frequency can
be tuned these specific frequencies. Then, the bandwidth (Q) and level are fine-tuned, independ-
ently, to make the necessary corrections. The parametric equalizer function is an advanced tool for
serious audiophiles.
• This adjustment is easier when test signals such as pink noise are used. For information
on test signals, consult your authorized Alpine dealer.
• Check the playable frequency ranges of the connected speakers before making the
equalizer adjustments. If the speaker’s playable frequency range is 55 Hz to 30 kHz, for
example, adjusting the 40 Hz or 20 Hz band has no effect. Additionally, you may overload
and damage the speakers.
• Once the settings have been made, we recommend storing them in the memory. See page
93 for instructions.
• If you combine with a head unit (DVI-9990) or monitor (TMI-M990) (both sold sepa-
rately), you can adjust the equalizer while viewing the adjusted contents on the monitor
screen. (See “Equalizer adjustment (when DVI-9990/TMI-M990 is connected)”, page 99).
• MP3 and WMA recorded Discs with a sampling frequency of 32 kHz cannot be compen-
sated above 16 kHz.

Crossover network
The PXI-H990 is equipped with an active dividing network allowing the bands to be split before
amplification by the power amplifier.
Because of this, there is no need for a passive network between the speakers and amplifiers and the
amplifiers are fully independent, thus eliminating the problem of interference and making it
possible to achieve the optimum acoustic space by dividing the playback frequencies in a way
suited to the capacities of the speakers.
This adjustment requires special knowledge and experience. Should problems arise, please see your
authorized Alpine dealer.
Adjust the high pass filter (H.P.F.) and low pass filter (L.P.F.) and set the slope
(filter response attenuation slope) for the different bands.
Make the adjustments according to the playable frequency ranges and
frequency responses of the connected speakers.

The crossover network is a filter that divides specific frequency bands.
The high pass filter is a filter that cuts frequencies below a certain frequency (bass frequencies)
and lets through treble frequencies.
•
•
The low pass filter is a filter that cuts frequencies above a certain frequency (treble frequencies)

The slope is a value expressing the attenuation of the signal in decibels when the frequency is
increased or decreased by one octave.
•
•
•
The higher the slope value, the steeper the slope.
If the slope is set to “OFF”, the signal does not pass through the filter, so there is no effect.
In order to protect the speakers, the front high range high pass filter cannot be turned off (the

Hint for adjusting the subwoofer
• If the subwoofer is installed on the rear deck, setting
a gentle L.P.F. slope (for example –6 dB/oct.) makes
the sound localization more to the rear. This can also
affect the acoustic localization of the front.
Hints for adjusting the high range
• Depending on the speaker, inputting low frequency
component signals (about 2 kHz or less) with the
H.P.F. adjustment could result in distortion. If so,
set a steep slope (for example –30 dB/oct.).
When doing so, adjust so that the mid and high range
sounds do not separate.
• Normally use with the L.P.F. off. If the high range is
too strong, we recommend adjusting for a gentle
slope.
Hint for adjusting the low range
• When a subwoofer is connected and you are using a
speaker with a low range of under 10 or 12 cm (3-15/
16" or 4-3/4"), setting the low range H.P.F. to “OFF”
can result in distortion when low frequency
components are input.
If so, set the H.P.F. slope to a value suited for the
speaker’s frequency response.

In reality the time difference depends not only on the
difference in physical distance but also on the delay time
between the time at which the signals are input to the
speakers until the sound is output. This delay time depends
on the speaker, and may also be somewhat affected on how
the speaker is mounted on the vehicle. After making the
setting, we recommend listening to the sound and fine-
adjusting if necessary.

Terminology
DTS
This is a home-use digital sound
format of the DTS Sound System. This
is a high quality sound system,
developed by Digital Theater Systems,
Inc. for use in movie theaters.
DTS has six independent sound tracks.
The theater presentation is fully
realized in the home and other
settings. DTS is the abbreviation for
Digital Theater Systems.
Dolby Digital
Dolby Digital is a digital audio
compression technology developed by
Dolby Laboratories that allows large
quantities of audio data to be efficiently
recorded on discs. It is compatible with
audio signals from mono (1 channel)
all the way up to 5.1-channel surround
sound. The signals for the different
channels are completely independent,
and since the sound is high quality
digital there is no loss of sound quality.
Dolby Pro Logic II
Dolby Pro Logic II provides
multichannel surround sound from any
2 channel source. It reproduces
extended bandwidth playback with 5.1
channels. This is made possible by an
advanced matrix surround decoder.
This new decoder is able to draw out
spatial characteristics of the recording
without adding tonal coloration or
artificial delays that did not exist in the
original.

Linear PCM audio (LPCM)
LPCM is a signal recording format
used for music CDs. Whereas music
CDs are recorded at 44.1 kHz/16 bits,
DVDs are recorded at 48 kHz/16 bits to
96 kHz/24 bits, thereby achieving
higher sound quality than music CDs.

Dolby Digital EX
Dolby Digital EX is a technology that
creates full-bandwidth output in
programs from 5.1 channels to 6
channels. Using a matrix decoder, 3
surround channels are extracted from
the signals that are recorded on the 2
channels of the program. Use this
function with Dolby Digital surround
EX movie soundtracks to bring out
optimum effects in the Dolby Digital
EX playback mode.
DTS-ES
DTS-ES is a technology that
reproduces 6.1 channel surround
sound. DTS-ES has 2 modes,
“Discrete”, in which the sound of 6.1
channels is all recorded
independently, and “Matrix”, in which
6.1 channels is created from the
sound of 5.1 channels. These modes
are switched automatically
corresponding to the number of
recording channels.
DTS Neo:6
DTS Neo:6 reproduces a 2-channel
source in 6 channels. This creates a
natural sound stage, preserving the
details of the original.
