settings. The Tone controls do not affect recordings
made using the Tape or Video line outputs.
6. BALANCE
The BALANCE control adjusts the relative levels of
the Left and Right front speakers. The 12 o’clock
position provides equal level to the Left and Right
channels. A detent indicates this position.
Rotating the control clockwise moves the balance
towards the right. Rotating the control anti-clockwise
moves the balance to the left. The BALANCE control
does not affect recordings made using the Tape or
VCR line outputs.
7. TONE DEFEAT
The TONE DEFEAT switch by-passes the tone
control section of the AV 713. If the Tone Controls
are not normally used and left in the 12 o’clock posi-
tion, then it is advisable to switch out the Tone
Control section altogether by using this switch. In the
‘out’ position, the Tone Control circuits are active,
pushing the TONE DEFEAT switch in bypasses the
Tone Control section. The Display Panel indicates
when Tone Defeat is on.
INPUT AND MONITOR SELECTORS
8. VIDEO 1, VIDEO 2, TAPE 1, TAPE 2
MONITOR, FM, AM, PHONO, CD
These buttons select the active input to the AV 713
and the signal sent to the loudspeakers and the
Tape, Video 2 and TV monitor outputs.
The name of the Input and Surround Mode will be
shown in the Display Panel.
VIDEO 1
Selects the signal from stereo TV/Satellite/Cable
receiver or Laser Disc connected to VIDEO 1 as the

active input. Video 1 or 2 is shown in the Display

TAPE 1
Selects Tape 1 as the active input.
TAPE 2 MONITOR
Selects the signal from output of the Tape 2 tape
machine. TAPE 2 MONITOR feeds the signal directly
to the AV 713’s main amplifiers and does not override
the current input selection. If the CD is the active
input when TAPE MONITOR is selected, then the
CD signal will continue to be sent to the recording
outputs of TAPE 1, TAPE 2 and VIDEO 2, whilst the
Tape 2 signal will be heard on the loudspeakers and
headphones. T-2 Monitor will be shown in the Display
Panel when TAPE 2 MONITOR has been selected.

ed when an AM Preset is selected.

SURROUND AND CDR FUNCTIONS
9. SURROUND
The SURROUND button selects the AV 713’s sur-
round mode. Pressing the SURROUND button pages
through the three modes: DOLBY PRO-LOGIC, HALL
and BY-PASS (normal Stereo)
DOLBY PRO-LOGIC decodes the surround sound
signals encoded in movie sound tracks from video or
TV. To decode correctly, the video or TV signal must
be of a Dolby Surround or Dolby Stereo soundtrack
and coming from a stereo VCR, TV or satellite/cable
receiver.
HALL mode produces a surround sound effect from
a normal stereo source such as a CD or FM radio.
BY-PASS switches to normal Stereo operation.
The selected mode is displayed in the main area of
the Display Panel for 3 seconds and is continuously
shown in Surround Mode area of the Display Panel.
As an additional convenience feature, your AV 713
memorizes which surround mode you have used with
the given input selection. When you next select that
input, your AV 713 will automatically choose the
same Surround mode again. If you normally use
Dolby Pro-Logic mode on the Video 1 and Video 2
inputs, Hall Mode on FM, and By-Pass (Stereo) on
the others, pressing the Input Selector will automati-
cally default to the right Surround mode without hav-
ing to separately press the Surround Mode button.
10. CENTER
Selects the type of centre speaker used on the
main speaker (SPEAKER A) system. Pressing the
CENTER button pages through the three options:
NORMAL, PHANTOM and WIDEBAND.
NORMAL mode is used when the center speaker is
smaller than the front left and right speakers. This
mode produces a true center image with the very low
frequencies (below 70Hz) filtered out.
WIDEBAND mode is used when the center speaker
is the same type as the front left and right speakers.
This mode produces a true center image with a full
frequency range and no low frequency filtering.
PHANTOM mode is used when there is no center
speaker. The AV 713 places the center information
equally on the left and right front speakers so produc-
ing a ‘Phantom’ central sound image.
The selected Center Mode is displayed for 3 sec-
onds in the main area of the Display Panel. It is
stored in the AV 713’s memory and will be automati-
cally recalled each time the unit is switched on. This
function can be altered only when the AV 713 is in
DOLBY PRO-LOGIC Mode.
