3.10 VOLUMES / PATH NAMES
This menu allows you to define the power-on volume settings, set whether or not MAIN outputs shut off
when headphones are used, and to rename ZONE2, ZONE3, and RECORD.
Mute Level:
When MUTE is pressed, sound can cut out completely, or decrease in volume by the amount that you set to
keep some of it in the background – select from ‘Silent’, or –5 to –30 dB in 5 dB steps.
Power-On Volume:
When you turn MAIN, ZONE2, or ZONE3 on, or plug in your headphones, the volume for each will come on
at the known levels you have set in this menu. This avoids any potential ‘surprises’ of not knowing the volume
someone had set when turning the AVM 50 off, and then having the power-on volume be either too loud or
quiet. You can set independent volumes for MAIN, ZONE2, ZONE3, and HEADPHONE.
Maximum Volume:
These settings allow you to limit the volume of MAIN, ZONE2, ZONE3, or HEADPHONE to avoid damaging
your equipment and/or your ears. This can also serve as a parental volume control feature. The range of
settings available for MAIN is from –95.5 dB to +31.5 dB in steps of .5 dB, and for ZONE2, ZONE3, and
HEADPHONE, the range is from –70.0 dB to +10.0 dB in 1.25 dB steps.
To set a fixed output for ZONE2 or ZONE3, scroll MAX VOL past +10.0 dB to set ‘LockOnVol’ and then set the
desired fixed output level in ON VOL. When the Path is on, ‘Lock’ is displayed beside the volume readout to
indicate that its volume cannot be changed with the volume control.
Headphone Mutes Speakers:
Determines whether or not the MAIN speakers turn off when headphones are plugged into the Front Panel:
• ‘Yes’ The MAIN speakers mute. “HPHONE” is displayed instead of “MAIN” to indicate that
adjusting Volume, Bass, Treble, and Balance affect HEADPHONE only.
• ‘No’ MAIN speakers continue to play when headphones are plugged in.
Rename Path:
The factory assigned Path names that appear on the Front Panel and On-Screen displays can be changed to
another name up to six characters long – the procedure is the same as Rename Source in menu 6.
