Initial Set Up

Multi Channel In Setting

If you have a Multi Channel external decoder you can choose whether to have the sound level set to BYPASS, that is coming out of the decoder at full volume, or set to ADJUST, which means the levels can be reduced in volume. If continuing from Dynamic Range Control go to step 1. If starting fresh, complete steps 1-3 in “Setting Up for Surround Sound“ (p.29) first.
