IntelliVolume

With this preference, you can set the input level for each input source. This is useful if some of your components are louder or quieter than others.

Use the Up and Down []/[ ] buttons to select an input selector, and use the Left and Right [ ]/[ ] but- tons to set the level.

If a component is too loud compared to your other com- ponents, use the Left [] button to reduce its input level. If it’s too quiet, use the Right [ ] button to increase its input level. The level can be set from –12 dB to +12 dB.

Volume Setup

Volume Display

With this preference, you can choose how the volume level is displayed.

Absolute: Display range is MIN, 1 through 99, MAX. Relative: Display range is dB, –81 dB, –80 dB

through +18 dB.

The absolute value 82 is equivalent to the relative value 0 dB.

Muting Level

This preference determines how much the output is muted when the Muting function is used (see page 58). It can be set to dB (default) or between –50 dB and –10 dB in 10 dB steps.

Maximum Vol

With this preference, you can prevent the volume being set too high by specifying a maximum volume level. When the “Volume Display” preference is set to “Abso- lute,” the range is from 50 to 99. When it’s set to “Rela- tive,” the range is –32 dB to +17 dB. To specify no maximum volume, select “Off.”
