4.2 Controlling Audio
The volume is controlled from front panel buttons or the remote control. Either way, the Audio Con-
trols menu opens on the screen.
Audio control from front panel
Beneath the Lamp On/Off button on the front
panel there are two volume control buttons.
• Left button is volume down.
• Right button is volume up.
Pressing either button opens the Audio Controls
menu on the screen. To control any of the other audio
items in this menu, you must use the remote control.
Audio control with remote control
Press either of the Volume buttons on the remote.
This raises (or lowers) the volume one step and opens
the audio menu.
With the audio menu open, use the up-down arrow
keys to select an item and the left-right keys to
change the value.
To open the audio menu without changing the vol-
ume, press
MENU
, select Audio, and press
ENTER
.
Volume raises and lowers the sound level of the inter-
nal speakers and the external speakers (if you have
them connected).
Mute turns off (or on) the sound for internal
and external speakers.
Loudness boosts the bass and treble.
Int Spkrs turns off (or on) the internal speak-
ers but leaves the external speakers
untouched.
Tone
Treble adjusts the relative volume of the highs.
Bass adjusts the relative volume of the lows.
Balance
Internal adjusts the left-right balance for the
internal speakers only.
Line Out adjusts the left-right balance for the
external speakers only.
About Line Out
The Line Out connectors are called Variable Line
Out because the Volume controls both the internal
speakers and external speakers.
Why does the value jump so far?
When you adjust Volume or the other controls, the
step size is determined by the audio control chip.
These step sizes are not the same for the four con-
trols, so some controls move along faster than others.
The table below shows how many steps there are
for each control.
Control Number of steps
Volume 51
Treble 17
Bass 21
Balance 52
