Unpacking

nDolby Virtual Speaker®

Creates a surround-sound effect when only two speakers are connected.

nLip Sync Delay

This important feature allows you to compensate for the video delay that is often caused by the scaling circuitry in flat panel and micro-display based video displays, digital video recorders or digital video sources. Independently adjustable for each input, this feature restores lip sync.

nFour-Way Crossover

Allows you to optimize bass reproduction and power handling by setting different crossover frequencies for front, center, side surround, and rear surround speakers. (Don’t worry about understanding all of this right now – we’ll explain later. Trust us, we’re Outlaws!)

nRS-232 Port

An RS-232 port makes it possible to update the Model 1070’s software right from your computer.

nLow-Voltage Trigger

This output jack sends a signal to an external system component (ampli- fier, video projector, etc.) so that it turns on whenever you turn the Model 1070 on. Yes, it’ll turn those same things off when you put the Model 1070 into standby mode, too, so don’t worry.

Unpacking

Your receiver comes in a carton with packing materials designed to cushion it from all the rudeness it’ll undoubtedly encounter during shipping. We strongly suggest you save them for use if you move, or if the unit ever needs to be shipped back to us for any reason (our warranty requires it).

OK, your hideout may be small but you can minimize the size of the carton for storage. Flatten it by carefully opening the top and bottom flaps and folding the carton flat. Do the same with other cardboard inserts. If some of the packing material can’t be folded, save it in a plastic bag.

The Model 1070 is not light. It can’t be with all those goodies stuffed inside. So take care when you lift it. Use your legs, not your back! And don’t bash your furniture with the protruding front-panel volume control knob or the rear-panel connectors.

Accessories

After unpacking your Model 1070, please check to make sure that the follow- ing accessories are in the box. If the Outlaws in the factory left anything out, please get in touch with us.

Use to connect headphones. Pure stereo or Dolby Headphone processing is available. The speakers are muted when the headphones are in use.
