or counterclockwise to decrease volume level in 1dB increments. A horizontal bar graph indicating the current Main Zone volume level is displayed in the on-screen and front-panel displays. The Main Zone volume range is –80 to +12dB.

To adjust the Zone 2 or Zone 3 volume level:

1.Press and hold the front-panel Zone 2 or Zone 3 input selection button that corresponds with the current input source. For instance, if the current input source is using the DVD1 input, press and hold the DVD1 input selection button in the desired zone.

2. While holding the desired zone input

selection button, rotate the volume knob clockwise to increase or counterclockwise to

decrease volume level in 1dB increments.

The corresponding horizontal graph appears in the on-screen and front-panel

displays, and indicates the position at which the current Zone 2 or Zone 3 volume level falls within the –80 to +12dB volume range.

3.Release the selected Zone 2 input selection button when Zone 2 or Zone 3 volume level has been set.

Note:

When RV-8 output levels have been properly calibrated, the +0dB volume level setting corresponds to THX reference levels (75dB).
