startup volume

•high speed: determines the responsiveness of the control when the knob is being turned slowly. A setting of 0 will cause the volume to change as slowly as possible at high knob speeds; a setting of 100 will cause the volume to change as quickly as allowed at high knob speeds. (The menu is the same as the one above except for the indication that it is for the “high speed” adjustment.)

•speed limit: establishes a maximum rotary speed, beyond which there will be no change in volume whatsoever; the knob’s input will be ignored completely until it slows down below the speed limit.

•reset defaults: if after experimenting with various settings you decide you prefer it the way it operated as it came from the factory, pressing this button will restore the factory default settings. So feel free to experiment – you can always return to the original settings.

The maximum volume screen allows you to establish a maximum volume setting for your system. This scale runs from 0 to 100, with 100 indicating that you do not want any artificial limit placed on the maximum gain your surround processor can provide.

This setting is interactive. You can set the value to something less than 100, and then adjust the volume to see whether it is appropriate. (The volume knob itself does not set the maximum volume; you must do so in the menu itself.)

Here you may select the level you prefer after the units wakes out of standby. This can be configured 2 different ways:

•last volume is the last level selected before the unit was powered down. Furthermore, the status of the mute will be remembered.

•specific allows you to select a favorite level with the mute on or off.
