Fine Tuning Your System

Other System Settings

These settings are more advanced. Some could add depth or listenability to your sound (like the THX CINEMA setup) and others are for your convenience (like the FUNCTION RENAME). You can decide if you want to make these settings or not. They are not crucial to good surround sound. You only need to make these settings once (unless you change the placement of your current speaker system, add new speakers or components to your system, etc.). These setup operations use your TV to display the settings and choices so be sure your TV and receiver are properly hooked up. Use the arrow buttons (5∞) and the ENTER button on the remote control to navigate the OSDs on your TV. Conversely, you can use the MULTI JOG dial and ENTER button, and look at the display, on the Front Panel.

THX CINEMA Setup (page 90)

This setup lets you choose which decoding method the receiver will use for THX CINEMA.

INPUT ASSIGN (pages 91-92)

If you hook up your digital components in a different way than the default settings you need to tell the receiver how you hooked them up so the names on the remote control and front panel match your home setup. Do this with the DIGITAL–IN SELECT setup. Also, if you hooked up video devices with component video cable you need to tell the receiver which devices are hook up in this way. Do this with the COMPONENT–IN SELECT setup.

FUNCTION RENAME (page 93)

This feature allows you to change the names that appear in the receiver display to reflect what you have connected.

PHONO/LINE Setup (page 94)

This feature allows you to hook up either a turntable or a line level component (like a CD player) to the same terminal. Use this setup to tell the receiver which you hooked up.
