Setup menus

When making the various settings required to configure your TX-DS898 optimally, you can either use the OSD menu that appears on your television monitor or you can use the display on the front of the TX-DS898. The OSD menu is a settings menu that is displayed on your TV monitor. For use as reference when performing the setting procedures, this manual shows both the OSD menu displayed on your television monitor and the display on the front of the TX-DS898.

The Setup menu consists of a main screen that is divided up into 5 menus: Hardware Setup, Speaker Setup, Input Setup, Audio Adjust, and Preference. These menus are then divided up into various sub-menus, and these contain settings for you to optimize your home theater as you wish.
