VOLUME
Because the precise feel of the Boulder 865’s volume control may be different than you are used to, we recommend starting the source device so that an audio signal is fed to the 865 before increasing the volume.
The display will show “VOLUME INFINITE” to indicate maximum attenuation or no sound. By placing a finger at the edge of the rotating control and moving it slowly so it turns in a clockwise direction, the volume will increase and an indication such as “VOLUME - 40.0dB” in the display will show the respective volume.
At this point you should be listening to music. Each volume step is a change of 0.5 dB.
WARNING: The volume control must be given the respect you would any other volume control with the ability to get loud very quickly.
WARNING: If the input is programmed to be in “THEATER MODE,” then the volume control will have no effect. This mode is only for use when there is a surround sound processor with a volume control ahead of the 865.
For more information, see THEATER MODE in the programming section on page
