Use

or

to set the distance of the

subwoofer from the main listening posi-
tion (within the range of 0.5 ft. to 45 ft.).

NO

setting, the subwoofer distance can’t be

Dynamic range control setting

• Default setting:

OFF

Dynamic range is the difference between the
loudest and softest sounds in any given
signal. With this setting, you can compress
the dynamic range, so that low level sounds
can be heard more easily (sounding relatively
louder) yet louder sounds won’t be too over-
bearing.

Use

or

to set the dynamic range

control (OFF, MAX, or MID).

• When listening at low volumes, set to

MAX

for maximum dynamic range

compression.

• Dynamic range control is effective only

when Dolby Digital and DTS signals are
being played back.

Dual mono setting

Default setting:

ch1

The dual mono setting can only be used when
listening to Dolby Digital and DTS signals
with dual mono encoding. It is sometimes
used when it is necessary to have one
language on one channel and a different
language on the other. With this setting you
can choose which channel in the dual mono
setting you want to listen to.

If Dolby Digital mode is switched on, you will
hear the channel you have selected (either

ch1

or

ch2

) through your center speaker. With

Dolby Digital mode off, or if you don’t have a
center speaker, you will hear the channel you
have selected through both front speakers. In
the

Lch1.Rch2

setting, the left front speaker

will play channel 1 and the right front speaker
will play channel 2.

Use

or

to cycle through the

possible dual mono settings.

Here you tell the receiver what components
you have hooked up to the component video
jacks on the back of the receiver.

Component video 1:

1

Use

video 1 input (DVD, TV, DVR or OFF).

Component video 2:

Digital input settings

Here you tell the receiver what components
you have hooked up to the coaxial and optical

DIGITAL IN

jacks on the back of the receiver.

After you assign a component to a digital jack,
whenever you select that component, (for
example, a DVD player) the receiver
automatically changes to the digital input
setting and

DIGITAL

shows in the display.
