Speaker Level Adjustment
Selection Buttons
UP/DOWN Buttons
The levels of all channels should be calibrated
using test tones with an ON-SCREEN DISPLAY
menu during the initial setup of the RSX-1065.
You can also make a temporary change in
the relative volume of the center, rear, or sub-
woofer channels using buttons on the remote
control:
1. Press one of the selection buttons on the
remote to select a channel (or pair of chan-
nels) for adjustment. Press the C button
to adjust the CENTER channel. Press the
S button
to adjust the SUBWOOFER
channel. Press the R button
to adjust
the rear SURROUND or CENTER BACK
channels (each press of the R button toggles
between the SURROUND channels and the
CENTER BACK channels). The selected
speaker and its current setting appear briefly
in the display.
2. Use the UP or DOWN buttons
on the
remote to adjust the output level of the se-
lected channel(s).
3. Repeat the procedure for each channel.
If no level adjustment is made for 5 seconds
after pressing one of the selection buttons, the
levels revert to the default calibrated settings.
NOTE
:
This adjustment is temporary. Selecting
a different input or turning the unit off and
one will cause the settings to revert to the
default levels.
NOTE
:
The ON-SCREEN DISPLAY calibration
permits independent adjustment of each sur-
round channel. The adjustment procedure de-
scribed here only allows changing the relative
volume of all surround channels in unison.
DYNAMIC RANGE Button
DWN Button
Digital sources are capable of wide dynamic
range (the difference between the softest and
loudest sounds). In some cases, this may tax
amplifiers and/or speakers. In other cases,
you may want to reduce the dynamic range
when listening at low volume levels. Pressing
the front-panel DYNAMIC RANGE button (or
the DWN button on the remote) steps through
the three dynamic range settings:
•
MAX
(no compression/full dynamic range)
•
MID
(moderate compression)
•
MIN
(full compression/minimum dynamic
range)
A “D. RANGE” indicator in the front-panel dis-
play lights when the dynamic range is not set
to the MAX setting. The new dynamic range
setting appears briefly in the alphanumeric
display when the setting is changed.
NOTE
:
The DYNAMIC RANGE feature is only
available in Dolby Digital mode. It is inactive
at all other times.
Tuner Controls
The RSX-1065 features a digital synthesized
AM/FM tuner with RDS capability and 30
station presets. The unit offers a wide range
of tuning options. Here is an overview of the
tuning options (more detailed information is
provided in subsequent sections of this manual):
•
Manual frequency tuning
tunes up or
down to the next station frequency (when
in frequency tuning mode). Press and re-
lease a TUNING button (CH UP/DOWN
on the remote) to tune.
•
Direct frequency tuning
lets you en-
ter the desired station frequency digits. Press
the DIRECT button and enter the digits us-
ing the NUMERIC buttons.
•
Automatic frequency search tuning
searches up or down to find the next re-
ceivable broadcast signal. Press and hold
a TUNING button (CH UP/DOWN on the
remote) for at least one second to search
up or down.
•
Station preset tuning
lets you directly
enter the number of a memorized station
preset. Enter the number of the memorized
preset using the NUMERIC buttons.
•
Preset search tuning
jumps up/down
to the next memorized station preset. When
in PRESET mode, press a TUNING button
(CH UP/DOWN on the remote) to select
the next station preset. Press the PRESET
button on the remote to toggle between
preset and frequency tuning modes.
•
RDS (Europe) or RBDS (USA) tuning
provides a range of special tuning and
search features based on data codes en-
coded with the broadcast signal. See the
RDS section of this manual for detailed
information.
NOTE
:
The RSX-1065 comes preconfigured for
tuning in the market where you purchased it
(N. America or Europe). To change this default
setting, see the information on the DEFAULT
SETUP on-screen menu later in this manual.
BAND Button
Press the BAND button to toggle between AM
and FM reception. An indicator in the front-
panel display confirms your choice and the
currently tuned station frequency is shown.
NOTE
:
If the TUNER is not already the selected
input source, pressing the BAND button will
automatically switch to the TUNER input.
TUNING Buttons
The TUNING buttons (labeled CH UP/DOWN
on the remote control) provide three different
tuning functions, depending on the mode of
operation.
In the normal FREQUENCY tuning
mode,
press a TUNING button (CH UP/
DOWN on the remote) and release to manu-
ally jump to the next station frequency, regard-
less of whether or not a station is broadcast-
ing on that frequency. For auto frequency search
tuning, press and hold the TUNING button for
approximately one second. An AUTO indicator
will appear in the front-panel display and the
tuner will begin scanning up or down through
the frequencies until the next available signal
is detected. If this is not the desired station,
repeat the automatic tuning procedure to find
the next station. Weak stations will be skipped
during auto tuning.
In the PRESET tuning mode
, press a
TUNING button (CH UP/DOWN on the re-
mote) and release to jump to the next memo-
rized station preset. Switch between FRE-
QUENCY and PRESET tuning modes by press-
ing the PRESET button
on the remote con-
trol. A PRESET indicator appears in the dis-
play when PRESET TUNING is activated.
