channel output levels for any input without changing
the settings previously established for another.

levels are associated with the various surround modes.

selecting a variety of surround modes, you may wish
to revisit the

the output levels.

Additional Input Adjustments
After one input has been adjusted for Surround mode
,
digital input (if any), speaker type, and output levels,
go back to the
IN/OUT SETUP line on the
MASTER MENU (Figure 1) and enter the set-
tings for each input that you will use
.
In most cases
,
only the digital input and surround mode will be differ-
ent from one input to the next, while the speaker type,
crossover frequency, Night mode and output level
settings will usually be the same and may be quickly
entered by entering the same data used for the
original input.
Once the settings outlined on the previous pages have
been made, the AVR 445 is ready for operation. While
there are some additional settings to be made, these
are best done after you have had an opportunity to lis-
ten to a variety of sources and different kinds of pro
-
gram material. These advanced settings are described
on pages 42 and 43 of this manual. In addition, any
of the settings made in the initial configuration of the
u
nit may be changed at any time. As you add new or
d
ifferent sources or speakers, or if you wish to change
a setting to better reflect your listening taste, simply
follow the instructions for changing the settings for that
parameter as shown in this section.
Having completed the setup and configuration process
for your AVR 445, you are about to experience the
finest in music and home theater listening. Enjoy!
