Input Setup

2-6. Sound Effect sub-menu

This sub-menu allows you to increase or decrease only the low
(bass) or high (treble) frequency sounds or adjust the volume for a
particular input source. This sub-menu does not appear if “Direct”
or “THX Mode” are selected as the listening mode.

a. Bass

Press the cursor button to decrease the bass sounds and press the

cursor button to increase the bass sounds. The bass can be

adjusted between -12 and +12 decibels in two steps.

b. Treble

Press the cursor button to decrease the treble sounds and press
the cursor button to increase the treble sounds. The treble can be
adjusted between -12 and +12 decibels in two steps.

2-5. Delay sub-menu

This sub-menu gives you various ways to adjust the timing of the
audio output from the speakers to give certain soundfield effects or
to adjust for unwanted asynchronous video and audio tracks.

This sub-menu does not appear if “Direct” is selected as the
listening mode.

a. A/V Sync

If a digital signal processor is connected, there may be times when
the audio and video from a DVD or LD player is not output in
perfect sync. The result is where the sound and picture do not
match and the sound is heard too early. In such a case, use this
setting to properly synchronize the audio and video. This setting
can be set between 0 to 30 ms in 0.5-ms increments. Under normal
circumstances, this can left at 0 ms. For input sources using the
multi channel port, this setting will not appear.

b. Relative Delay

Besides level and delay adjustments, the TX-DS989 provides the
ability to change or adjust the relative speaker position to fine tune
the soundfield for the listener. This is accomplished using
Onkyo’s unique Enhanced Spatial Positioning Algorithm. This
adjustment provides 10 milliseconds of delay for the speakers,
which is equivalent to moving the speaker 10 feet away. This
adjustment is set up to provide -4 or +6 milliseconds (-4 or +6 feet)
of adjustment to the listener’s position.

Once the coarse adjustments--speaker level and distance
adjustments--are made, the system is set up to provide a typical or
broad surround environment. By adjusting the relative position of
the speakers, we are able to alter the soundfield to be more spread
out (deeper) or focused (shallower).
