2CH BYPASS

MODE ADJUST 2CH BYPASS

This listening mode sends 2-channel analog audio input signals to the Main Zone audio output connectors labeled Front L/R with no internal processing.

The 2CH BYPASS listening mode is automatically activated whenever a 2-channel analog source is present and the MAIN ADV menu ANALOG BYPASS parameter is set to ON. The 2CH BYPASS listening mode is not available when a digital source is present and the MAIN ADV menu INPUT SELECT parameter is set to AUTO.

Pressing the remote control SHIFT then 2CH buttons toggles the MAIN ADV menu ANALOG BYPASS parameter between ON and OFF.

Note:

Speaker crossover settings, speaker distances, and audio controls (tone) are not available when the 2CH BYPASS listening mode is activated.

LIVE! SMALL, LIVE! MED & LIVE! LARGE

MODE ADJUST LIVE! SMALL OR LIVE! MED OR LIVE! LARGE

LIVE! (Lexicon Intelligent Variable Environment) is a proprietary mode designed to transform the way your listening room sounds. It provides a realistic illusion of a larger, more reverberant listening space. LIVE! SMALL simulates the reverberations of a room that is small, but larger than an average living room. LIVE! LARGE simulates the reverberations of a large hall. LIVE! requires two permanently mounted microphones. (See “LIVE! Calibration” on page 3-71for placement and calibration instructions.) LIVE! cannot be used with prerecorded sources such as CD or DVD.

When LIVE! is activated, the BASS, TREBLE, and TILT EQ audio controls are set to +0.0dB and LOUDNESS is set to OFF, until LIVE! is deactivated.
