Onkyo TX-SR800 - Manual (Page 29)

29
Though the TX-SR800 is often used to listen to the radio, it does not
show you its true ability until it is used to play music or watch
videos, DVDs, and the like. The TX-SR800 has the latest and most
state-of-the-art features to play back today’s technologies with the
utmost in fidelity and power. From a two-speaker system to a seven-
speaker system, you are assured a sound space that you can always
enjoy.
To ensure the proper sound space, you must first perform the
speaker setup settings. These settings allow you to set the type of
speakers you are using, the distance that they are located from
the listening position, and the individual speaker volumes. For
more details, see Speaker Setup Sub-menu of the Setup Menu on
page 43.

Adjusting the main volume adjusts the volume level of all the
speakers connected to the TX-SR800 together. If headphones

to decrease the volume, turn the dial counterclockwise. The
volume can be set to 0 to 100 (or –
∞, –81 to +18 dB).

pressed.
Changing the display:
Press and hold down the TAPE source button until the display
