Enjoying music or videos with the DTR-7.2
Though the DTR-7.2 is often used to listen to the radio, it does not
show you its true ability until it is used to play music or watch
videos, DVDs, and the like. The DTR-7.2 has the latest in state-of-
the-art features to play back today’s acoustic technologies with the
utmost in fidelity and power. From a two-speaker system to a seven-
speaker system, you are assured a sound space that you can always
enjoy.
Listening with headphones
To listen with headphones, plug a pair of headphones with a standard
stereo plug into the Phones jack on the DTR-7.2 front panel.
When you connect headphones, the unit will enter Stereo mode
automatically and no sound will be heard from the speakers.
When the headphones are unplugged, the DTR-7.2 returns to its
original listening mode.
When using the headphones, you can only use the Direct, Stereo, and
Mono listening modes.
If you have selected MULTI CH INPUT, you will hear sound only
from the FRONT L and R channels.
The headphone volume level can be adjusted at the Setup menu (see
page 47).
Note that the signal to the remote zone (Zone 2) will not be affected
whether or not headphones are connected.
Adjusting the bass and treble
You can adjust the bass and treble levels at the Setup menu:Audio
Adjust → Tone Control. This function only affects the front left and
right speakers, center speaker, and subwoofer. Only the bass level
can be adjusted for the subwoofer (the treble adjustment is not
effective). However, these adjustments cannot be made if the
listening mode is set to Direct.
Temporarily turning off the sound
To turn off the sound momentarily, such as when interrupted by a
phone call, press the MUTING button on the remote controller.
When pressed, “Muting” is displayed on the DTR-7.2. Press the
MUTING button again to turn the sound back on.
