TAPE MONITOR

The TAPE MONITOR button selects the audio output from a cassette deck connected to the TAPE IN phono sockets of the AVR200. It also enables you to monitor a recording being made on a 3-head cassette deck. Tape monitor status is shown in red on the display.

When the tape monitor is selected, pressing other source buttons changes the signal sent to the recorder.

NOTE: TAPE MONITOR is a latching button: you will need to press it again before selecting another source for listening.

CD

The CD button selects the source connected to the CD phono sockets.

FM, AM

To select the integrated tuner function of the AVR200, press the FM or AM button. See the section ‘Using the tuner’.

VOLUME control

To adjust the volume level of the loudspeakers, pre-amp outputs and headphones use the VOLUME control. The volume level is shown in the display while it is being adjusted. Three seconds after the volume is adjusted, the display reverts to show the selected input.

Note that different sources may require different settings of the VOLUME control to achieve the same perceived volume level.

The volume can be controlled from 0dB over 80 steps.

BASS and TREBLE controls

Turn the bass and treble controls clockwise to boost response or anticlockwise to cut response. For a flat response leave the controls in the 12 o’clock ‘notched’ position.

Pressing the DIRECT button bypasses the bass and treble controls and gives a small improvement to sound quality. If you do not wish to alter the bass or treble controls, we recommended that you select DIRECT.
