Customizing your receiver

Change the settings to suit your speakers and equipment and to suit the environment in which the unit is to be used. Before making any changes, read the following descriptions, note the factory settings and ranges, and refer to the instructions for the speakers and equipment.

The settings remain intact until they are changed, even after the power is turned off.

Setting descriptions

SIZE

Change to suit the speakers you have connected.

LARGE: For speakers that can reproduce a full sound range, particularly the bass range below 100 Hz.

SMALL: For speakers that cannot adequately reproduce the bass range. This setting is sufficient for most speakers if you are using a subwoofer.

NONE: For speakers you haven’t connected (center or surround).

The factory settings are: Front:LARGE Center and surround: SMALL

For the subwoofer, select YES if you have connected one (factory setting), or NO if you have not.

DISTANCE

Enter the distance of the speakers from the seating position so that the sound from all the speakers (except for the subwoofer) reaches you at the same time.

You can select distances between 1.0 and 10.0 m at 0.1 m

intervals.

 

 

The factory settings are:

Front and center:

3.0 m

 

Surround:

1.5 m

FILTER

This setting allows you to change the cut-off for bass output from the front speakers. If you set the front speakers to “SMALL”, the filter is set to 100 Hz. Raise the cut-off if the bass from the front speakers is unsatisfactory so that this bass is output through the subwoofer.

You can raise the cut-off from 100 Hz to either 150 Hz or 200 Hz.

DR COMP - Dynamic range compression

Change this setting to view software at low volume (such as late at night) and maintain audio clarity. This setting works with Dolby Digital software. It reduces the peak level in loud scenes without affecting the sound field.

OFF: The software is played with the original dynamic range (factory setting).

STANDARD: The level recommended by the producer of the software for household viewing.

MAX: The maximum allowable compression (recommended for night viewing).

D-INPUT - Digital input

Change these settings to suit the connections you have made to the three digital input terminals, COAX, OPT1, and OPT2 (\ page 7), so that the correct source is selected when you turn [INPUT SELECTOR] (\ page 18).

The factory settings are:

DIMMER

This setting allows you to dim the unit’s display (and turn off the MOS-FET light on SA-DX1050) for better viewing in a darkened room.

The factory setting is OFF (normal brightness).
