“Surround” menu

Here you switch the surround mode for stereo sources 
in the following order:

2.1 Stereo

Stereo only via front left/right and 
subwoofer

5.1 Stereo

Stereo via all channels (upmix)

Dolby PLII Movie  Dolby Pro Logic

®

 II for movies

Dolby PLII Music  Dolby Pro Logic

®

 II for music

Dolby Digital and DTS

Surround mode is predefined for playback of Dolby 
Digital or DTS coded multi-channel audio tracks and 
this menu is disabled as a result.

“Tone Control” menu

Tone

Here you can set the sound (high tones and bass 
tones). Possible values: from –10 dB (decrease) to 
+10 dB (increase).

Mode

• Dynamic Compr.  

Dynamic compensation regulates volume differen-
ces between individual tracks on CDs or other 
digital audio sources and ensures that playback is 
neither too loud nor too quiet. Possible settings: On 
or Off.

• Cinema EQ

This function reduces the percentage of high tones 
from the original movie sound mix to perfectly 
adapt the sound to the typical acoustics of a living 
room. Possible setting: On or Off.

 Equalizer

With this function, very fine adjustments within nine 
frequency ranges are available. Possible values: from 
–20 dB (decrease) to +6 dB (increase) each.

The “Reset” menu item resets all frequency ranges for 
the selected channel to zero (neutral).

“Speaker Levels” menu

Here, you can set the relative volume within a range 
from “–10” (decrease) to “+10” (increase) for each 
speaker.

With the “Test Tone”, you can activate and deactivate 
pink noise as a neutral test tone and also set the 
speaker levels as described above.

We recommend that you use a sound level meter to 
optimally adjust the sound level.

“Source Levels” menu

Here, you can set the relative volume within a range 
from “–10” (decrease) to “+10” (increase) for each 
audio source.

 “Audio Mapping” menu

Here, you can set an audio input for each of the four 
HDMI inputs and the TV set.

Example: You would like to connect a PC without 
HDMI output. With a DVI to HDMI adapter, you trans-
mit the video signal while the audio signal is present 
at one of the analogue inputs (AUX) via an RCA cable.

If the HDMI-ARC function is activated for the TV set, 
the menu item “TV” will not be available.

“Speaker Setup” menu

Speaker Size

You can set the size of the speakers in use here for 
optimal actuation of the speakers. Four configurations 
are available:

SSS1

All speakers are small, 
subwoofer present.

LSS1

Large front speakers, small center and sur-
round speakers, subwoofer present.

LSS0

Large front speakers, small center and sur-
round speakers, no subwoofer.

LLL1

All speakers are large, 
subwoofer present.

The letters represent the speakers: Front left/right, 
center, surround left/right. In this context, S stands 
for small and L for large speakers. The last number 
stands for the subwoofer (1 = present, 0 = not pres-
ent).
In 3.1 mode, a 0 stands for “not present” concerning 
surround (3rd position).
