ADJUSTING THE VOLUME
In addition to the Volume knob, use the HTR 8’s [VOL D/F ] to adjust the
“master volume” of the T 778 raising or lowering the channels altogether. A
momentary keypress will change the master volume by 1 dB increments. If
you hold down [VOL
D/F ], the master-volume change will “run-on” until
the key is released.
Since recordings vary considerably in overall average level, there is no
imperative to listen at any particular master-volume setting. A setting of -20
dB may sound “as loud” from one CD or BD as -10 dB does from another.
The T 778 will power-up from Standby mode at whatever master volume
setting was last used; however, if the prior setting was greater than –20 dB,
the T 778 will power up at –20 dB. This prevents inadvertently beginning a
session at excessive volume.
MUTING THE SOUND
Use the HTR 8’s [MUTE] key to silence all channels completely. Muting is
always available regardless of the source or listening mode selections.
NOTES
• Changing input or listening-mode selections does not release muting.
• Adjusting the volume level via the HTR 8 or the front panel volume knob
will automatically release the mute function.
ADJUSTING CHANNEL LEVELS “ON THE FLY”
You can make changes to the relative levels of center, surround and
subwoofer outputs without having to go into the “Speaker Levels” menu.
This is very convenient in circumstances like increasing (or tone down)
a film’s dialog level by raising (lowering) the center channel or reducing
excessive deep bass (or enhance deep bass) by lowering (raising) the
subwoofer level.
Use the HTR 8’s [SURR], [CENT] and [SUB] keys for direct-access level
adjustment of these channels over a range of ±6 dB.
The surround back channels (if any) adjust in lockstep with the surround
channels.
NOTE
Level settings adjusted “On the Fly” are added or subtracted to the setup
levels established at the T 778 level-calibration routine as invoked by the
HTR 8 [TEST] key. However, selecting any Preset will revert the channel
levels to those stored in the preset.
ZONE SETUP
The Zone 2 feature allows one to simultaneously experience in a different
zone of the house selected audio from any of the enabled Sources.
VOLUME MODE
Zone 2 have Fixed and Variable volume control. When set to “Variable” and
while at the “Zone Controls” menu OSD, the Zone 2 Volume level can be
adjusted using HTR 8’s [
D/F ] directly via ZR 7’s [VOL d/f ].
On the other hand, if Volume is set to “Fixed”, Zone 2 Volume is set to a
preset dB level and thereafter the Zone’s volume can be varied via the
volume control of the separate amplifier it is fed into.
See discussion also about “Zone Controls” at the Main Menu.
