Attenuating the input signal—
INPUT ATT
When the input level of analog source is too high, the sound will be distorted. If this happens, you need to attenuate the input signal level to prevent the sound distortion.
•Once you have made an adjustment, it is memorized for each source.
•You cannot adjust directly from the remote control.
ATT ON | Select to attenuate the input signal level. |
| The INPUT ATT indicator lights up on the |
| display. |
|
|
ATT NORMAL | Select to deactivate attenuation. |

Initial setting: | NORMAL |
Adjusting the sound parameters for the Surround/DSP modes
You can adjust the Surround/DSP sound parameters to your preference.
•For details about the Surround/DSP modes, see pages 39 to 44.
7 Adjusting the effect level for DSP modes—
EFFECT
This setting is available only when one of the DSP modes (except All Channel Stereo) is in use. To activate DSP mode, see pages 43 and 44.
•Once you have made an adjustment, it is memorized for each DSP mode.
Adjustable range: 1 to 5 (in 1 step intervals)
Initial setting: | 3 |
As the number increases, the effect becomes stronger. Normally, select “3.”
From the remote control:
Press EFFECT repeatedly to select the level you want to adjust.

7 Adjusting the virtual room size for DSP
This setting is available only when one of the DSP modes (except All Channel Stereo) is in use. To activate DSP mode, see pages 43 and 44.
•If “SURROUND SPK” is set to “NO” (see page 30), this item is not adjustable.
•Once you have made an adjustment, it is memorized for each DSP mode.
•You cannot adjust directly from the remote control.
Adjustable range: 1 to 5 (in 1 step intervals)
Initial setting: | 3 |
As the number increases, the interval between reflections increases so that you will feel as if you were in a larger room. Normally, select “3.”
7 Adjusting the liveness effect for DSP
This setting is available only when one of the DSP modes (except All Channel Stereo) is in use. To activate DSP mode, see pages 43 and 44.
•If “SURROUND SPK” is set to “NO” (see page 30), this item is not adjustable.
•Once you have made an adjustment, it is memorized for each DSP mode.
•You cannot adjust directly from the remote control.
Adjustable range: 1 to 5 (in 1 step intervals)
Initial setting: | 3 |
As the number increases, the attenuation level of reflections over time decreases so that acoustics change from “Dead” to “Live.”
Normally, select “3.”
