Is there a way to adjust the bass and treble for the center channel? I can only get the mains to change.

The tone controls are global, so there's not a way to adjust for individual channels.

Individual channel tone controls would be a great feature to add to the next software update.

Hint, hint (in case Outlaw is reading this).

Gonk,
Changing the bass and treble will change all the channels then, and not just the mains?

I agree, individual controls would be a huge help.

seems like they could offer this in the current 990 with a firmware update.

It's possible that there are hardware limitations in the DSP engine that would prevent it. Also, altering the tone control for individual speakers rather than globally would be a difficult adjustment to make without skewing the frequency response of your speakers. It would be easier and more useful to include manually adjustable or automatic EQ's for each channel, which still gets into issues with accurate sound reproduction.

So back to my original question. The tonal controls don't see to be global. They only seem to control the mains on my system. Can any one else confirm this in there systems.

I haven't ever used the tone controls - I'll have to experiment a bit to see if I can determine if this is true, but I was under the impression that it affected all channels. It may only operate in stereo modes, though.
