Getting Started

Test Tone / Channel balance

Channel balance

Your receiver is equipped with a test signal generator for balancing the channels. As the signal "travels" from chan- nel to channel, adjust the level controls until each channel plays at the same loudness level. (details see operation of test/setup)

Connecting for Power

Make sure you connect all your other

electronic components and theEN speakers before plugging your

receiver into the outlet. Plug the power cord in the wall outlet, matching the wide blade of the plug with the wide slot in the outlet. Be sure to insert the plug completely.

Level adjustment & surround channel level expectation

Even though you adjust the surround channel to be as loud as the others on the test signal, you'll find that on actual program material the surround channel is usually much lower than the front. Don't be tempted to readjust the sur- round level; program producers use surround mostly for subtle atmosphereics and ambience, and only rarely for special effects. A good surround mix doesn't call attention to itself; if it did, it would soon become distracting.

Using Headphones

To listen privately through your audio system, use the PHONES jack on the receiver. However, make sure you turn down the volume before you put on the headphones. Increase the volume to the desired level after headphones are in place.

Once headphones are connected, “HEADPHONE DOWNMIX 2 CHANNEL” will scroll on display. This feature automatical- ly converts multi-channel outputs to 2 channel stereo for your listening pleasure.
