System Configuration
First Turn On
Once the speakers have been placed in the room and connected, the remaining steps are to program the system configuration memories. With the AVR 2000 two kind of memories are used, those associated individually with the input selected, e.g. surround modes, and others working independently from any input selected like speaker output levels, or delay times used by the surround sound processor.
You are now ready to power up the AVR 2000 to begin these final adjustments.
1. Plug the Power Cable | into an un- |
switched AC outlet. |

2.Press the Main Power Switch 1in until it latches and the word “OFF” on the top of the switch disappears inside the front panel. Note that the Power Indicator 3 will turn amber, indicating that the unit is in the Standby mode.
3.Install the 2 supplied AAA batteries in the remote as shown. Be certain to follow the (+) and
4.Turn the AVR 2000 on either by pressing the System Power Control 2or the Input Source Selector !on the front panel, or via the remote by pressing the AVR Selector 5 or any of the Input Selectors 46on the remote. The Power Indicator 3will turn green to confirm that the unit is on, and the Main Information Display Úwill also light up.
Settings to be Made With Each Input Used
The AVR 2000 features an advanced memory system that enables you to establish different configurations for the speaker configuration, dig- ital input and surround mode for each input source. This flexibility enables you to custom tai- lor the way in which you listen to each source and have the AVR 2000 memorize them. This means, for example, that you may associate dif- ferent surround modes and analog or digital inputs with different sources, or set different speaker configurations with the resultant changes to the bass management system or the use of the Center speaker. Once these settings are made, they will automatically be recalled whenever you select an input.
The default settings for the AVR 2000, as it is shipped from the factory, have all inputs set for an analog source, with stereo as the surround mode, the front left and right speakers set to “large” (with surround modes other speakers to ”small”), and a subwoofer connected. Before using the unit, you will probably want to change these settings for most inputs so that they are properly configured to reflect the use of digital or analog inputs, the type of speakers installed and the surround mode specifics. Remember, since the AVR 2000’s memory system keeps the settings for each input separate from the other inputs, you will need to make these adjustments for each input used. However, once they are made, further adjustment is only required when system components are changed.
To make this process as quick and as easy as possible, we suggest that with each of these set- tings to be made you step through each input. Once you have completed the settings for the first input, many settings may be duplicated for the remaining inputs.
The items that follow will describe the individual settings required for each input.
Input Setup
The first step in configuring the AVR 2000 is to select an input. This may be done by pressing the front panel Input Source Selector ! until the desired input’s name appears momen- tarily in the Main Information Display X, and the green LED lights next to the input’s name in the front panel Input Indicators Ô. The input may also be selected by pressing the appropriate Input Selector on the remote control 46.
The second step is to associate one of the digital inputs with the selected input source (if this is needed, otherwise the selected analog input will remain). Press the Digital Input Select button ÒFon the front panel or the remote. Within five seconds, make your input selection using the Selector buttons on the front panel 5or the ⁄/¤ buttons Con the remote until the desired digital or analog input is shown in the Main Information Display X. Then press the Set button Eto enter the new digital input assignment. After the setting has been made with one input, repeat as described above with all inputs in use. The digital input associated with the input selected can also be changed at any time later and the AVR 2000´s memory sys- tem will keep the settings until they are changed again.
Speaker Setup
This setup tells the AVR 2000 which type of speakers are in use. This is important as it adjusts the settings that determine which speakers receive low frequency (bass) informa- tion and whether a Center speaker should be used or not, separately for each input used. For each of these settings use the LARGE set- ting if the speakers for a particular position are traditional
It is best to select the Dolby Pro Logic mode for speaker setup. Then with the currently selected input all settings will be copied to other surround modes too (as far as possible) and need not be repeated with any other mode.
