Listening only with headphones
You can listen with the headphones without deactivating both pairs
of speakers; however, if you want to use the HEADPHONE mode
(see below), you must turn off both pairs of speakers.
1. Connect a pair of headphones to the PHONES jack on the front
panel.
2. Press SPEAKERS 1 and/or 2 so that no lamps on the buttons are
turned on.
This cancels the surround mode or DSP mode currently selected,
and activates the HEADPHONE mode (see below).
• The HEAD PHONE indicator lights up on the display.
HEADPHONE mode:
This mode can reproduce the LFE channel signals, mixing them
with the front channel signals. So you will not miss the
subwoofer sounds even if you listen to a source using the
headphones.
Notes:
• While in the HEADPHONE mode, you cannot use any other DSP
modes (see page 21.)
• Activating the speaker cancels the headphones mode and turns on
the DSP mode previously selected.
CAUTION:
Be sure to turn down the volume before connecting or putting on
headphones, as high volume can damage both the headphones and
your hearing.
Muting the Sound
From the remote control ONLY:
Press MUTING to mute the sound through all
speakers and headphones connected.
“MUTING” appears on the display and the
volume turns off (the volume level indicator goes
off).
To restore the sound, press MUTING again so that “OFF” appears
on the display.
• Turning MASTER VOLUME on the front panel or pressing
/– on the remote control also restores the sound.
Reinforcing the Bass
You can boost the bass level.
On the front panel ONLY:
Press BASS BOOST (SOURCE NAME)
briefly to select the bass boost function.
• Each time you press the button, the bass boost
function turns on (“BASSBOOST ON”) and
off (“BASSBOOST OFF”).
– Select “BASSBOOST ON” to activate the bass boost function.
The BASS BOOST indicator lights up on the display.
– Select “BASSBOOST OFF” to cancel it.
The indicator goes off.
Note:
This function affects the front speaker sounds only.
Attenuating the Input Signal
When the input level of the playing source is too high, the sounds
will be distorted. If this happens, you need to attenuate the input
signal level to prevent the sound distortion.
On the front panel ONLY:
Press and hold INPUT ATT. (SOUND
SELECT) so that the ATT indicator lights up
on the display.
• Each time you press and hold the button, the
Input Attenuator mode turns on (“INPUT ATT
ON”) or off (“INPUT NORMAL”).
Notes:
• This function is available only for the sources connected using the
analog terminals.
• This function takes effect when the DSP mode is in use.
• When selecting “DVD MULTI” as the source, this effect does not
work.
Adjusting the Subwoofer Output Level
You can adjust the subwoofer output level if you have selected
“YES” for the “SUBWOOFER” (see page 14).
Once it has been adjusted, the receiver memorizes the adjustment.
Before you start, remember....
• There is a time limit in doing the following steps. If the setting is
canceled before you finish, start from step 1 again.
• When the front speakers are all deactivated, the subwoofer level
cannot be adjusted.
On the front panel:
1. Press (BALANCE/) SURROUND
ADJUST repeatedly until
“SUBWFR LEVEL” appears on
the display.
The display changes to show the current setting.
2. Turn MULTI JOG to adjust the
subwoofer output level (–10 dB to
+10 dB).
From the remote control:
1. Press SOUND.
The 10 keys are activated for sound adjustments.
2. Press SUBWOOFER –/+ to adjust
the subwoofer output level (–10 dB
to +10 dB).
