Madrigal Imaging Audio/Video Preamplifier Stereo Amplifier User Manual


 
14
The main display indicates the master volume by default, or the following
offsets when chosen: balance, center, rear, subwoofer. In addition, it can also
display the input level (used in calibrating the Dolby Pro Logic circuitry to
the source material) and the rear channel delay (in milliseconds). Right-
and Left-facing arrows are provided to indicate the direction of the balance
offset. Finally, the infrared receiver and transmitter for the remote control are
positioned on the left side of the main display.
4 VOLUME +/–
These up/down buttons are used to make adjustments on the PAV, apart
from source and path selection. While the volume +/– buttons normally
control the master volume of the music/home theater system (main path),
they can be used in concert with other buttons to control almost any as-
pect of system performance (as indicated below).
5MASTER
When the indicator above this button is lit, any adjustment made with the
volume +/– buttons will be applied to all loudspeakers equally, including
Center, Rears, and Subwoofer(s), thus raising or lowering the overall volume
without changing the relative balance of the various speakers. This is the
default mode of operation for the volume control, to which the PAV auto-
matically returns after you make other adjustments.
6 BALANCE
Pressing this button followed by the volume +/– buttons will alter the rela-
tive volume of the Front Left and Front Right speakers. The direction of the
perceived image shift is indicated by the green arrowhead indicators in the
main display, as well as by the on screen display. Pressing volume + in the
balance mode will shift the image to the right (in a “positive” direction);
pressing volume – will shift the image to the left (in a “negative” direction).
7CENTER
Pressing this button followed by the volume +/– buttons will alter the vol-
ume of the Center speaker relative to all others. The resulting offset will be
indicated in the main display, as well as by the on screen display, until the
volume control reverts to its normal master mode. As an example, increas-
ing the center channel volume by three steps would result in a 3 being dis-
played until the volume control reverted to normal operation, at which
point the display would again indicate the overall volume setting.
8 REAR
Pressing this button followed by the volume +/– buttons will alter the rela-
tive volume of the Rear speakers relative to all others. The resulting offset
will be indicated in the main display, as well as by the on screen display.
