Front Panel Controls (Continued)…
Input Knob
Rotating the Input selector will cycle through all of the inputs. The front panel LED under each
input will indicate when it is selected.
Sub Level Knob
The Sub Level control knob adjusts the subwoofer level. The sub level can be adjusted
between -10 dB and +10 dB, relative to the L and R channels. When the control knob is in the
12 o’clock position the sub level boost is 0 dB. When you first set up your subwoofer you
should set this control to 12 o’clock (0 dB) and then play some music. Adjust the level control
built into your subwoofer until it sounds balanced. Now, whenever you want to fine tune your
subwoofer level you can simply use the front panel Sub Level control instead walking over to
your sub and bending over to adjust the level control on the subwoofer.
Note:
The Sub Level knob does not adjust the Sub level when the Bypass Input is selected.
Balance Knob
Adjusting left and right channel balance is helpful to compensate for speaker placement, room
acoustics or if your power amplifier’s gain isn’t identical for both channels.
Volume Knob
Your P 5 uses a high quality Alps potentiometer to adjust the master volume level. The
potentiometer is motorized for remote control use.
Mute Button
Pressing the Mute button once will mute the signal at all of the Out jacks except the Record
Out. The Mute button will turn red while mute is engaged. Press the Mute button a second
time to cancel mute. The Mute will be automatically canceled if you press the volume up or
down buttons on the remote.
Note:
Mute is not canceled when you turn the front panel Volume knob. Refrain from
moving the Volume knob when the P 5 is muted to avoid a loud surprise when it is
unmuted.
