Channel Trim

Channel Trim allows you to fine-tune the channel levels to compensate for various soundtrack anomalies. For example, you may play a movie and find that the center (dialogue) channel sounds weak, making the movie hard to follow. Simply trimming the center channel up a decibel or two can fix the problem. Or another movie may have much more bass than normal; trimming the subwoofer channel down a few decibels should balance the sound correctly.

You can trim the channels while you are listening to a source, or you can trim the channels using the Model 1070’s internal test tone. The trim range is +10dB to -10dB.

To adjust channel level while listening to a source:

1.Press TRIM on the remote control.

“TRIM LEVEL ADJUST” will appear in the front panel display and in the on-screen messages (unless you selected OSD: OFF in the Input Con- figuration menu). FRONT LEFT” will be the first channel to be shown on-screen and on the front-panel display along with the current channel output level offset.

2.Press the or buttons to adjust the level as desired.

3.When the desired level offset is set, use the and buttons to move through the list of channels.

Repeat steps 2 and 3 until you finished adjusting the channel levels.

4.Press SET when you are finished adjusting the channel outputs or wait a few seconds for the display to disappear.

To adjust channel level using the test tone, use the same procedure described above, except start the process by pressing the TEST button on the remote instead of the TRIM button. :

Night Mode Selection

The Model 1070’s Night Mode is intended for late-night listening. It suppresses the loud peaks in movie soundtracks and music videos so that the sound from your system does not disturb others.
