Listening to your system

Using the Quick Setup

You can use the Quick Setup to get your

system up and running with just a few button

presses. The receiver automatically makes

the necessary settings after you have

selected your room size and listening

position.

If you want to make more specific settings,

refer to The System Setup menu.

Use the front panel controls for the steps

below.

1 Press  STANDBY/ON to switch on.

2 Press QUICK SETUP.

from the listening position, choose between

small, medium, or large (S, M or L), M being

an average-sized room.

4 Press ENTER.

5 Use the MULTI JOG dial to choose your

listening position.

You can cycle between the following choices:

with Dolby Digital sources).

Setting the effect options

When using surround effects, there are a number of

settings you can adjust.

1 Press EFFECT/CH SEL repeatedly to select the

setting you want to adjust.

Depending on the current status / mode of the

receiver, certain options may not appear. Check the

table below for notes on this.

2 Use the LEVEL+/– buttons to set it as necessary.

See the table below for the options available for each

setting. The defaults, if not stated, are listed in bold.

3 Press EFFECT/CH SEL again to adjust other

settings.

Using the Virtual Surround Back mode

Selecting this mode allows you to hear a virtual

surround back channel through your surround

speakers. For example, you can choose to listen to

sources with no surround back channel information

(for example, 5.1 encoded material) with emulated 6.1

encoding (VSB ON). Sometimes the material may

sound better in the 5.1 format for which it was

originally encoded. In this case you can simply switch

it off (VSB OFF).

• Press VSB MODE (front panel) to select a virtual

surround back channel option.

Each press cycles through the options as follows:

• VSB ON — Virtual Surround Back is always used

(for example, on 5.1 encoded material)

• VSB OFF — Virtual Surround Back mode is

switched off

Note

• You can't use the Virtual Surround Back mode with

headphones or with the STEREO / DIRECT mode.

Listening in stereo

When you select STEREO or DIRECT, you will hear the

source through just the front left and right speakers

(and subwoofer). Dolby Digital and DTS multichannel

sources are downmixed to stereo.

• While listening to a source, press STEREO for

stereo playback.

Press repeatedly to switch between:

• STEREO — The audio is heard with your surround

settings and you can still use the Midnight,

Loudness, and tone functions.

• DIRECT — Bypass all effects and surround

settings so that the audio remains as close to the

source audio signal as possible.

• AUTO SURR. — See Auto playback above.

Note

• DIRECT switches to STEREO when using Midnight,

Loudness, Dialog Enhancement, or the tone controls.

Using the Sound Retriever

When audio data is removed during the

compression process, sound quality often suffers

from an uneven sound image. The Sound Retriever

feature employs new DSP technology that helps

bring CD quality sound back to compressed

2-channel audio by restoring sound pressure and

smoothing jagged artifacts left over after

compression.

• While listening to a source, press S.RETRIEVER.

Press repeatedly to switch between:

• RTRV1 ON — This option is engineered

especially for portable digital audio players.

• RTRV2 ON — This option is engineered

especially for portable digital radio devices (only

applicable when using the FRONT AUDIO INPUT).

• OFF — Switches the Sound Retriever off.

27 AUTO SURR.

Lights when the Auto Surround feature is switched

on.

28 ATT

Lights when ANALOG ATT is used to attenuate

(reduce) the level of the analog input signal.

29 SLEEP

Lights when the receiver is in sleep mode.
