Additional Input Adjustments
In addition to the major adjustments described in the
preceding pages, you may also wish to set the type of
audio source (analog or digital) to be used with an
input at this time. Once a specific audio source type is
associated with any of the inputs, it will remain in the
memory until it is changed, even when another input is
selected. To attach one of the digital inputs to a specific
source, follow these steps:

1. Press the Digital Button

2. Immediately press the ▲/▼ Buttons

mq or

Selector Buttons

5 to scroll through the list of

available digital inputs or the analog input.

3. When the desired input type is shown in both the

Main Information Display

F and in the Analog

S, Coaxial Digital Input T or Optical Digital
Input

U Indicators, press the Set Button o

to enter the setting into the unit's memory.

When the Stereo-Direct (Surround Off) mode is in use,
you may only select the analog input for a source.
When the Stereo-Digital mode is in use, you may
select from any of the digital inputs that you have
connected to your source components.

You may also “memorize” a specific surround mode so
that it will always be used when an input is selected.
The AVR 125 always remembers the last surround
mode used with any input, but during the setup
process you may wish to preset the modes for each
source. To do that, follow these steps:

1. Select an input by pressing one of the Input

Selectors

! or the AM/FM Tuner

Select

2. Press the Surround Mode Selector

j7, and

immediately press the ▲/▼ Buttons

mq or

Surround Mode Selector

7 to scroll through the

list of available surround modes. Note that the
name of each mode will scroll from right to left
across the Main Information Display

F. To

avoid having the system “time out” and exit the
select process, be sure to press the ▲/▼ Buttons
mq or Surround Mode Selector 7 to
select the next mode at any time the mode name
is displayed.

3. When the desired mode name appears in the Main

Information Display

F and in the Surround

Mode Indicators

, simply pause for a few

seconds to allow the unit to “time out.” Your selec-
tion will be memorized and will be activated each
time the input is selected until another mode is
selected.

4. Repeat the process for each of the inputs.

5. When the desired Surround mode has been

entered for all inputs, press the Set Button

Once the settings outlined on the previous pages have
been made, the AVR 125 is ready for operation. While
there are some additional settings to be made, these
are best done after you have had an opportunity to lis-
ten to a variety of sources and different kinds of pro-
gram material. These settings are described on pages
21 through 26 of this manual. In addition, any of the
settings made in the initial configuration of the unit
may be changed at any time. As you add new or dif-
ferent sources or speakers, or if you wish to change a
setting to better reflect your listening taste, simply fol-
low the instructions for changing the settings for that
parameter, as shown in this section.

Having completed the setup and configuration process
for your AVR 125, you are about to experience the
finest in music and home theater listening. Enjoy!
