System Configuration
Once the speakers have been placed in the room and connected, the remaining steps are to program the system configuration memories.
Although it is necessary to assign input/output settings and surround mode choices manually, we recommend that you take advantage of the power and precision of EzSet/EQ to automatically select and enter the settings for all other audio parameters. This will not only save you time; it will ensure that your room is calibrated and equalized with an accuracy not possible when these settings are made manually. You are now ready to power up the AVR 155 to begin these final adjustments.
First Turn On
You are now ready to power up the AVR to begin these final adjustments.
1.Plug the Power Cable into an unswitched AC outlet.
2. Press the Main Power Switch on the rear of the receiver ON. Note that the Power Indicator 3 will turn amber, indicating that the unit is in the Standby mode.
3.Remove the protective plastic film from the main
4.Install the three supplied AAA batteries in the remote as shown. Be certain to follow the (+) and
5.Turn the AVR on either by pressing the System Power Control 2 or the Input Source Selector % on the front panel, or via the remote by pressing the Power On Button 3, AVR Selector 5 or any of the Input Selectors 46 on the remote. The Power Indicator 3 will turn white to confirm that the unit is on, and the Main Information Display Ò will also light up.
NOTE: After pressing one of the Input Selector buttons 4 to turn the unit on, press the AVR Selector 5 to have the remote control the AVR functions.

System Setup
The AVR 155 features an advanced memory system that enables you to establish different configurations for the speaker configuration, digital input, surround mode, delay times, crossover frequencies and speaker setting for each input source. To ease the speaker setting, the same speaker setting can also be made for all inputs. This flexibility enables you to custom tailor the way in which you listen to each source and have the AVR memorize them. This means, for example, that you may associate different surround modes and analog or digital inputs with different sources, or set different speaker configu- rations with the resultant changes to the bass management system or the use of the center speaker and/or the Subwoofer. Once these settings are made, they will automatically be recalled whenever you select that input.
However, we recommend that the first time you use the AVR, you take advantage of the simplicity of configuring the system using the EzSet/EQ process, which takes the guesswork out of speak- er size and delay settings, and balances the speaker output levels to tailor the AVR’s sound presentation to your specific system and room. Before beginning the EzSet/EQ procedure, there are a few adjustments that need to be made to ensure accurate results.
The factory default settings for the AVR 155 have all inputs configured for an analog audio input except for the DVD input, where the Coaxial Digital Input is the default and the Video 2 input, where the Optical Digital Audio Input
is the default. Once the DSP processing sys- tem is used for the first time for any input, the
