Insignia NS-AV511 Surround Sound Receiver

Setting the Late Night function

The Late Night function lets you reduce the dynamic range of Dolby Digital material so that you can still hear quiet parts even when listening at low volume levels. This makes it ideal for watching movies late at night when you do not want to disturb anyone. Options are:

For Dolby Digital and Dolby Digital Plus sources, the options are Off, Low, and High.

For Dolby TrueHD sources, the options are Auto, Off, and On.

Notes

The effect of the Late Night function depends on the material that you are playing and the intention of the original sound designer. With some material there is little or no effect when you select the different options.

The Late Night function can only be used when the input source is Dolby Digital, Dolby Digital Plus, or Dolby TrueHD.

The Late Night function is set to Off when the receiver is set to Standby. For Dolby TrueHD sources, it is set to Auto.

Setting the Music Optimizer

The Music Optimizer function enhances the sound quality of compressed music files. Use it with music files that use “lossy” compression, such as MP3.

Options are Off and On.

Notes

The Music Optimizer function only works with PCM digital audio input signals with a sampling rate below 48 kHz and analog audio input signals. The Music Optimizer is disabled when the Direct listening mode is selected.

The setting is stored individually for each input selector.

When the Music Optimizer is on, the M.OPT indicator lights.

Setting the CinemaFILTER

The CinemaFILTER lets you soften overly bright movie soundtracks, which are typically mixed for reproduction in a movie theater.

Dolby TrueHD

Multichannel

DTS

Setting the A/V Sync

When using progressive scanning on your Blu-ray Disc/DVD player, you may find that the picture and sound are out of sync. With this setting, you can correct this by delaying the audio signals. Option settings are from -400 ms to 400 ms, in 10 ms steps.

Notes

A/V Sync is disabled when the Direct listening mode is used with an analog input source.

The setting is stored individually for each input selector.

Setting the Audio Selector

You can set priorities of audio output when there are both digital and analog inputs. Options include:

ARC–The audio signal from your TV tuner can be sent digitally to the HDMI OUT of the receiver. With this selection, the TV’s audio can automatically be selected as a priority.

HDMI–This can be selected when HDMI IN has been assigned as an input source. If both HDMI (HDMI IN) and digital audio inputs (COAXIAL IN or OPTICAL IN) have been assigned, HDMI input is automatically selected.

COAX–This can be selected when COAXIAL IN has been assigned as an input source. If both coaxial and optical inputs have been assigned, coaxial input is automatically selected.

OPT–This can be selected when OPTICAL IN has been assigned as an input source.

Analog–The receiver always outputs analog signals.

Notes

The setting is stored individually for each input selector.

This setting can be made only for the input source that is assigned as HDMI IN, COAXIAL IN, or OPTICAL IN. If both HDMI (HDMI IN) and digital audio inputs (COAXIAL IN or OPTICAL IN) are assigned, HDMI input is selected as a priority by setting to ARC. To select the digital audio input, see “Setting up Digital Audio (Digital Audio menu)” on page 21.

You can select ARC if you select the TV/CD input selector. But you cannot select it if you have selected Off in the Audio Return Ch setting.
