MODE

When you adjust the channel levels while in the SYSTEM SETUP CHANNEL LEVEL mode, the channel level adjustments made will affect ALL surround modes. Consider this mode a Master Channel Level adjustment mode.

After you have completed the SYSTEM SETUP CHANNEL LEVEL adjustments, you can then activate the individual surround modes and adjust channel levels that will be remembered for each of those modes. Then, whenever you activate a particular surround sound mode, your preferred channel level adjustments for just that mode will be recalled. Check the instructions for adjusting channel levels within each surround mode on page 27.

To cancel the settings, select “Level Clear” and “Yes” on the “Channel Level” screen, then make the settings again.

The level of each channel should be adjusted to 75 dB (C-weighted, slow meter mode) on a sound level meter at the listening position.

If a sound level meter is not available adjust the channels by ear so the sound levels are the same. Because adjusting the subwoofer level test tone by ear is difficult, use a well known music selection and adjust for natural balance.

NOTE: When adjusting the level of an active subwoofer system, you may also need to adjust the subwoofer’s own volume control.

NOTES:

The OPTICAL 3 jacks on the AVR-3802’s rear panel are equipped with an optical digital output jack for recording digital signals on a CD recorder, MD recorder or other digital recorder. Use this for digital recording between a digital audio source (stereo - 2 channel) and a digital audio recorder.

Do not connect the output of the component connected to the OPTICAL 3 OUT jack on the AVR-3802’s rear panel to any jack other than the OPTICAL 3 IN jack.

“PHONO” and “TUNER” cannot be selected on the Digital In Assignment screen.
