All the A/V Connections Needed for the Present and Into the Future! Plus a Host of Convenient Features.

Easy Setup and Operation

The RX-V740RDS has an ergonomic design that ensures simple, convenient operation. Everything from the layout of the controls to the display menus has been planned to make using the unit easy and enjoyable.

On-Screen Display and Convenient Controls

A handy On-Screen Display that includes extensive yet easily understandable setup menus makes it easy to select and adjust desired functions. Especially useful is a speaker display in the Speaker Test mode that makes it easy to balance the levels of all speakers. DSP programmes can be selected with the remote control so their effects can be judged from the listening position. A rotary encoder Input Selector makes source selection quick and easy.

Programme Name and Surround Sound Indications

The front panel display shows a variety of surround sound status indications, so you always know what modes you are in. The Programme name is displayed, including the word “Night” if the Night Listening mode is selected. Six sound field modes including Quad-Field and Tri-Field are also indicated.

An Extensive Range of Useful Menus

The RX-V740 gives you extensive control over audio and operational modes through a selection of parameters that can be adjusted from the on-screen menus. The Basic modes

are Setup and Speaker Level, while the Sound modes feature a Centre Graphic Equalizer, Speaker Set, Speaker Distance, LFE Level, Dynamic Range and Headphone Tone Control. The Input modes are I/O Assignment, Input and a new Input Rename function that lets you create your own names for input sources. Options include Display Set, Memory Guard, and two new functions, Variable Audio Mute and Zone Set. All of these parameters can be selected and adjusted from either the front panel or the remote control.
