Volume

To change the volume:

Repeatedly press or hold VOLUME -/+on the front panel or

/ on the handset.

Volume range is from 0 to 100 (in 0.5 steps).

To mute or un-mute the volume:

• Press on the handset.

Balance (handset must be in Amp mode)

To change the balance for all loudspeakers (excluding a centre loudspeaker and subwoofer):

Press AUDIO ADJUST on the handset. BALANCE is shown on the front panel display.

Repeatedly press or hold to shift the balance to the right, or to shift the balance to the left.

Balance range is from 10 increments to the left to 10 increments to the right, with neutral balance being 0.

Speaker trim (handset must be in Amp mode)

This feature is for use in systems that have more than two loudspeakers.

When listening to music or watching a DVD-Video, you may want to adjust the volume level of your centre, surround, back surround loudspeakers or subwoofer without affecting any of the other loudspeakers. This is done by trimming the loudspeaker volume.

To trim loudspeaker volume:

Repeatedly press AUDIO ADJUST on the handset until the desired loudspeaker(s) is/are shown on the front panel display.

Repeatedly press or hold / on the front panel or handset to decrease/increase the amount of loudspeaker trim.

The trim range is from -10.0 to 10.0 (in 0.5 steps), with neutral trim being 0.

Note:

The loudspeakers shown when AUDIO ADJUST is repeatedly pressed is dependent on the number of loudspeakers in your system and the currently selected surround sound format.

Lip Sync Delay (handset must be in Amp mode)

For use with a Linn UNIDISK player or other DVD player.

You may find with certain DVD-Videos that the action on the screen (e.g. movement of the actors’ lips) lags behind the audio. You can correct this on the AKURATE KONTROL by using the Lip Sync Delay feature to delay the audio until it is synchronized with the picture.

To adjust Lip Sync Delay:

Press LIP SYNC on the handset.

Repeatedly press or hold to add more delay, or to reduce the delay of the audio signal until the picture and audio are synchronized.

Lip Sync Delay range is from 0 to 250 milliseconds (in 10 millisecond steps).

Note:

Lip Sync Delay can only be applied to digital sources and is not available for DTS audio signals.
