TONE CONTROLS
The M17 has three Tone Control levels – Treble, Bass and Center Dialog. Bass
and Treble controls only affect the low bass and high treble leaving the
critical midrange frequencies free of coloration. The Center Dialog (“Dialog”
in the VFD) control boosts the “presence” of the midrange region improving
intelligibility of speech.
These controls allow one to tweak on-the-fly, the frequency response
of the source during playback. The control setting could be adjusted by
navigating through the Tone Controls’ OSD menu via a combination of
[ENTER] and [
W/E/R/T
] keys. The same can be managed directly by
pressing the front panel’s “Tone” display and then press and slide “
h
“ to
adjust treble, bass or dialog level.
Maximum and minimum values for all three Tone Control levels are ±10 dB.
“Tone Defeat” gives one the choice of varying or completely bypassing the
tone control section of the M17. If “Off” (“Tone Active” in the VFD) is selected,
the Tone Control circuits are active.
Select “On” (“Tone Defeat” in the VFD) to bypass the Tone Controls effectively
defeating the effect of the tone control circuits.
NOTE
Tone Controls options can be directly selected or changed using
HTRM 2’s TONE button with DEVICE SELECTOR set to AMP mode. Toggle
TONE button to select “Treble”, “Bass” or “Dialog” and then use the
[
R/T
] to adjust their respective levels. Press TONE again to save the
settings and at the same time move on to the next parameter or exit the
parameter setting altogether.
ZONE CONTROLS
Depending on the settings made at the separate “Zone Setup” menu
under the “Setup Menu”’ section discussion, the applicable Zone can be
configured and managed via this “Zone Controls” window.
Select “On” to activate the applicable Zone. When activated, the Source
input for the particular Zone can be allocated by selecting through the
following inputs – All enabled Sources and Local.
Select “Local” as your selected Zone’s Source input if you wish to enjoy the
same source as the main Zone and allow simultaneous listening, but with
full separate volume levels.
If a Zone is set to “Off”, it is deactivated or powered off.
“Volume” refers to the adjustable secondary Zone 2 Volume level that can
be increased or decreased using the [
R/T
] buttons of the HTRM 2.
Zone 2 is always available to be configured at “Zone Controls” menu. For
Zone 3 and Zone 4 to become available at the “Zone Controls” window,
their corresponding “Mode” in the “Zone Setup” menu under the “Setup
Menu” section should be set to “Zone (Audio Only)”.
NOTES
•
The ZR 7 remote control will only control Zone 2 applications. Zone 3
and Zone 4 could be configured and managed at the appropriate Zone
OSD menu using the corresponding keys on the HTRM 2 remote control.
•
“Zone 4” is audio only and not associated with any video input sources.
