3. Turn on the connected component and start playing

the desired media.

4. If necessary, adjust the output level of each speaker

as desired (see page 32).

Adjust the volume at each speaker so that all the volumes sound
at the same level at the listening position. For the front right,
front left, center, surround right, surround left, surround back
right, and surround back left speakers, the output levels can be
adjusted between –12 and +12 decibels. The subwoofer can be
adjusted between –30 and +12 decibels.

Note:
If you change the speaker levels in step 4 above, these new levels for
multichannel sources will have no effect on the settings at Setup Menu

is recommended for normal circumstances.

Auto (automatic detection): With this setting, the TX-SR800
automatically detects whether the input signal is digital or analog.
When a digital signal is not input, then the analog signal is played.
This setting only appears if a digital input is selected for the Digital
Input setting at Setup Menu

→ Input Setup Menu → Digital Setup

Sub-menu (see page 46).

Multich (Multichannel): Select this setting to play back the input
from the component connected to the MULTI CHANNEL INPUT
port. This setting only appears if “Yes” is selected for the
Multichannel setting at Setup Menu

→ Input Setup Menu →

Multichannel Setup Sub-menu (see page 47).

Analog: Select this setting to play back the input from a source
component connected to analog audio input jacks. With this setting,
even if a digital signal is input from the same component, only the
analog signal will be output.

Enjoying the multichannel output

Before starting operations, first make sure that the multichannel
connection is properly made and that “Yes” is selected for the
Multichannel setting at Setup Menu
