System Configuration
To make this process as quick and as easy as pos- sible, we suggest that you use the
Input Setup
The first step in configuring the AVR is to select an input, i.e. to associate an analog or digital input with each input source in use, e.g. CD or DVD. Note that once an input is selected, all settings for the Digital Input, Speaker Configura- tion, Delay and Surround Mode will ”attach” themselves to that input and be stored in a nonvolatile memory. This means that once made, the selection of an input will automatically recall those settings. For that reason, the procedures described below must be repeated for each input source so that you have the opportunity to custom tailor each source to your specific listening requirements. However, once made they need not be changed again unless you need to alter a setting.
When using the
Fto enter the menu and the INPUT SETUP menu (Figure 2) will appear on the
screen. Press the ‹/› buttons E until the desired input name appears in the highlighted video, as well as being indicated in the front panel Input Indicators ˆ by the blue LED next to the desired input name. If the input will use the standard left/right analog inputs, no further adjustment is needed (except with DVD).

If you wish to associate one of the digital inputs with the selected input source, press the ¤ Button Don the remote while the INPUT SETUP menu (Figure 2) is on the screen, and note that the
Euntil the name of the desired digital input appears. To return to the Analog input, press the buttons until the word ANALOG appears. When the correct input source appears, press the ¤ button Duntil the › cursor appears next to BACK TO MASTER MENU, and press the Set Button F.
To associate an analog or digital input with the input source currently selected at any time using the discrete function buttons, press the Digital Input Select Button ÛGon the front panel or the remote while the
Speaker Setup
This menu tells the AVR which type of speakers are in use. This is important as it adjusts the set- tings that determine which speakers receive low- frequency (bass) information. For each of these settings use the LARGE setting if the speakers for a particular position are traditional
Use the SMALL setting for smaller, frequency- limited satellite speakers that do not reproduce sounds below 100Hz. Note that when “small” speakers are used, a subwoofer is required to reproduce
This menu screen also allows you to enter the set- tings for the AVR’s Triple Crossover feature that allows a different crossover point to be used for the front left/right, center and surround speakers. In systems where
At last, this menu also makes you chose if the speaker setting will be the same for each input source (GLOBAL), or will be set differently for each input (INDEPENDENT).
Notes:
•When "Independent" is selected for the speak- er settings (see below), they need to be made for each input individually and you can deter- mine which speaker should be used depending on the input source selected. So it´s possible e.g. to turn off the Center and/or the Sub with any music source selected and to use them with any movie input source.
•With the currently selected input all speaker settings will be copied to all other surround modes (as far as speakers are used with them) and need not be repeated when another sur- round mode is selected with that input.
It is easiest to enter the proper settings for the speaker setup through the SPEAKER SETUP menu (Figure 3). So press the OSD Button Lto bring up the MASTER MENU (Figure 1), and then press the ¤ Button D twice so that the cursor is on the SPEAKER SETUP line. At this point, press the
Set Button Fto bring up the SPEAKER SETUP menu (Figure 3).

The first line of the SPEAKER SETUP menu (Figure 3) allows you to switch the menu to change either the underlying speaker size setting or the exact crossover point used for that speaker group if set to "Small". For the first pass through the menu, leave the setting at its default option of SIZE, and then proceed as outlined below. Once the speaker choices have been set you may wish to return to this line to change the option so that the crossover settings may be adjusted.
1.Before you start the speaker setting, you should determine if you want all inputs being configured with the same speaker size setting (GLOBAL) or if all inputs should be configured individually (INDEPENDENT).
To configure all inputs for "Global" or "Inde- pendent" press the ⁄ Button Dtwice so that the cursor is next to the BASS MGR line.
This setting allows you to use the same speaker configuration for all inputs, or to have different settings for each input. In most cases the factory default setting of GLOBAL will be appropriate, as most listeners do not need to have individual- ized speaker settings. However, some listeners, particularly those with
