The VOLUME control adjusts the level of all output channels. Rotate the front-panel control clockwise to increase the volume, counterclock- wise to decrease. The RR-969 remote has VOL- UME UP and DOWN buttons.

When you adjust the volume, a digital read- out appears in the front-panel display and the new setting appears on your TV monitor.

NOTE: The VOLUME control can be used to change the volume in Zone 2. Press the front- panel ZONE button and adjust the volume. After 10 seconds, the VOLUME control re- verts to normal operation.

MUTE Button

Push the MUTE button once to turn the sound off. An indication appears in the front-panel and on-screen displays. Press the button again to restore previous volume levels.

Tone Adjustments (remote only)

BASS and TREBLE adjustments (available only the remote control) increase or decrease the audio signal’s low and high frequency content respectively. The front-panel display and ON- SCREEN DISPLAY show tone control settings as you adjust them.

To adjust the tone settings:

1.Press the SHIFT button on the remote control. Either BASS or TREBLE appears in the front-panel display, depending on which adjustment is currently active. Press the SHIFT button again to toggle to the other adjustment.

2.Press the UP/DOWN buttons on the remote to increase or decrease the setting. The display will revert to normal operation following several seconds of inactivity.

Tone adjustments can also be made from a menu screen in the ON-SCREEN DISPLAY system. See the Tone Setup section near the end of this manual.

NOTE: The tone adjustments are available for all surround modes and inputs, including the MULTI input.

The FILTER button (remote only) activates or deactivates a special CINEMA EQ setting. This equalization may be desirable for playback of movie source material to compensate for the acoustic differences between a commer- cial cinema and a home theater environment.

The FILTER setting is independent for each source input. Using the button only changes the set- ting for the currently active source input.

MENU Button

Push this button on the remote to turn on the ON-SCREEN DISPLAY menu system. If the menu system is already visible, push this button to cancel the display.

The front panel FL display can be turned off by pressing and holding the MENU button on the remote for three seconds. Briefly press the MENU button again to turn the display back on. The display also turns back on whenever the POWER button on the front-panel or re- mote is pressed.

ENTER Button

The ENTER button is used to confirm and memorize various settings in the setup and operation of the RSX-1055. Its use is described in detail in the relevant sections.

Input Controls

Input Source Buttons

Press any of the eight front-panel buttons to select an audio or video input source (the built- in tuner, CD, VCR, etc.) for listening. You will hear this source and, if you have selected a video source, see its picture on your TV monitor.

The front-panel display and the ON-SCREEN DISPLAY show the name of the current listen- ing source selection. The labels for VIDEO sources can be customized to match your components.

NOTE: When the TUNER input source button is pressed, the frequency of the currently tuned station is displayed. Pressing the button again toggles the display to show the word TUNER instead of the frequency display.

to accept either analog signals or digital sig- nals from one of the five assignable digital inputs. When a digital input is assigned, the RSX-1055 checks for the presence of a digi- tal signal at that input. If a digital signal is present when the source is selected, it is automatically activated and the proper surround mode en- abled. If no digital signal is present, the ana- log inputs for that source are selected. This auto-sensing is the preferred configuration for digital source inputs such as DVD players. When an ANALOG input is assigned, the unit will not access a digital signal, even though one may be available at the digital input.

By default, the source input buttons are fac- tory configured to select the following inputs:

CD:

Analog input

Tuner:

Analog (built-in)

Tape:

Analog input

Video 1:

Digital Coaxial 1

Video 2:

Digital Coaxial 2

Video 3:

Digital Coaxial 3

Video 4:

Digital Optical 1

Video 5:

Digital Optical 2

Each source input should be configured us- ing the ON-SCREEN DISPLAY menu system to use the desired input type (analog or digital auto-sensing). See the INPUT MENU section for configuration instructions.

NOTE: In addition to selecting analog or digital signals, the configuration options also permit custom labeling and selection of a default sur- round mode for each of the seven inputs plus the built-in tuner.

The input source buttons can also be used (with the REC button described in the next sec- tion) to select an analog input source signal to be available at the outputs for recording. Additionally, the input source buttons can be used with the ZONE button to select an analog input source for ZONE 2.
