If you have selected a 6.1-channel configuration with a single surround back speaker,

use ezSet/eq automatic configuration for 5.1 speakers, connect the single surround

back speaker to the left Assigned Amp Speaker output connector, then configure the

surround back speaker manually, as described in

manual Speaker Setup, on page 36.

Set Up Your Sources

the Setup Source menu lets you assign the correct physical audio and video connections

to each source and lets you set many audio and video playback features for each source.

IMPORTANT: The “Video Input from Source,” “Audio Input from Source” and

“Resolution to Display” settings are not optional and must be adjusted

before you

use your AVR to enable playback of each source. you can adjust the other settings

later. See

System Settings, on page 39, for complete information about adjusting all of

the Settings menu options.

review the input connections you listed on the

Resolution to Display: this setting reflects the video output resolution, which is

dependent upon the capabilities of your tv or video display.

If you connected your tv to the Avr’s hdmI monitor out connector, the two devices will

communicate with each other, and the Avr will automatically select the best available

video output resolution. In almost all cases, you should leave the resolution set to the

Avr’s automatic selection. (you can override this automatic selection if your video

display’s native resolution is different from the Avr’s automatic selection.)
If you connected your tv to the Avr’s composite video monitor out connector, you

must set the resolution to “480i” (Avr 3650/Avr 2650) or to “576p” (Avr 365/Avr

265) to view any content.

Audio Effects: this submenu allows you to adjust the dolby volume and dolby plII/

IIx/IIz settings, the bass and treble tone controls, the lfe trim, the equalization on/off

setting and the mp3 enhancement for each source independently. we suggest leaving

this submenu at its default settings and returning to it later if your system requires fine-

tuning. See

Audio effects button, on page 34, for more information.

Video Modes: this submenu allows you to make picture adjustments for each source

independently. we suggest leaving the settings at their factory defaults. you should make

picture adjustments to your video display first and use this menu only for fine-tuning. See

video processing, on page 34, for more information.
Surround Modes: this submenu lets you program surround modes for movies, music

and games for each source independently. digital surround signals, such as dolby digital

and dtS bitstreams, are automatically played in their native formats, although you may

change the surround mode. See

Audio processing and Surround Sound, on page 33, for

more information.
Audio Format from Source: this line is informational only. when a digital program is

playing, its format will be identified here. when analog audio programs are playing, this

line displays AnAlog.
