Source Names Setup 

 

From the factory, your Preamplifier Tuner will display source names that match those printed on the rear of the 
Preamplifier Tuner and on the supplied remote. However, this menu allows you to change the displayed names to 
match the actual sources used. If you do not want to change the names then skip this step. Note that the tuner 
name cannot be changed.

Source Levels Setup 

 

This setup allows you to match the levels of your sources so that there are no large changes in volume as you 
change from one source to another. This is for your convenience only and need not be performed unless you wish 
to. You may use a SPL meter or your ear to adjust the levels. Note that the levels will depend not only on this 
setting but also on the source material being played back. You may wish to use a test disc. Note that the only 
setting permitted are 0 and -6dB
