TONE CONTROLS -
Turn these knobs to adjust the bass (low frequencies) or the treble (high frequencies)
in the speaker and Pre-Out level outputs. Turn counterclockwise (left) to lower or turn clockwise (right) to
increase bass or treble. Center detente (click) is flat bass and treble EQ. Range: +/-10dB.
4. BALANCE -
Turn this knob to adjust the relative audio level between the left and right speakers. If the speak-
ers are positioned so that they are not an equal distance from the Primary Listening Area, adjust the bal-
ance so the amount of sound coming from the left and right speakers is equal. Turn counterclockwise (left)

5. PHONES -
Connects to a standard stereo 1/4 inch phone plug for listening through stereo headphones.
The Speaker A and B Outputs are automatically turned off when headphones are connected to this jack.
When headphones are connected, the Front Panel Display ‘SP.AB’ (Speaker A/B) Indicator will turn off. HP-
IN will appear briefly and then the display will return to the selected source.
6. VIDEO 3/L-AUDIO-R -
These Front Panel convenience jacks connect to an audio/video device such as a
video game, MP3 Player, still or video camera, etc that is not a regular system component. This eliminates
having to pull the receiver out of its installed position to get to the rear panel connections. These inputs are
selected by first selecting VIDEO 3. A second press of the VIDEO 3 button (Front Panel or remote) will switch
to the Front Panel VIDEO 3 Inputs. When selected, VIDEO 3 (rear) or VIDEO F (front) will appear in the Front
Panel Display to indicate the selected input. The VIDEO 3/VIDEO F Inputs can be toggled by repeatedly
pressing the VIDEO 3 button.
