Input source type ‘Cyrus AV’ or ‘AV’
Inputs may have been set as source type ‘Cyrus AV’ or
‘AV’. These source types are for use with surround-sound
decoders. When one of these inputs is selected, the
amplifier is configured as a power amplifier with fixed gain
for the selected input. This enables the surround decoder
to share the front left and right speaker channels of a Cyrus
stereo system.
The volume control on the amplifier will be locked at -6dB
and mute will be disabled.
When in one of these AV modes the surround decoder
input select and volume controls are used to select a multi-
channel source and set the volume level for the system.
To unlock the volume control and return to playing a stereo
source, select the input you want to play at the amplifier.
