2. QUICK
START
While the AVM 2 is certainly a massive component with enough features and connections to make your head
spin, setup and operation are also very intuitive! With your AVM 2 in front of you, browse through the illustrations
in this section showing several quick system hookups. It’s as simple as following the lines in the connection
diagrams to and from each component.
All of these quick system hookup examples work with the Factory Default settings; none re q u i re the
Advanced Setup configuration. Just ‘plug & play’! However, re f e rences to the Advanced Setup section are
included to make you aware of the tremendous versatility of the AVM 2.
Even though this section makes it easy to get everything hooked up, for the best sound possible you will still have
to calibrate your system in the Setup Menu as outlined in Advanced Setup (section 7). Please do not overlook this
i m p o rtant system calibration pro c e d u re .
