Use the AV receiver’s input selector buttons to select an input source.
To select an input source with the remote controller, press its INPUT
SELECTOR buttons.
To listen to a DVD player connected to the multichannel DVD input (page 31), press
the AV receiver’s [MULTI CH] button. The MULTI CH indicator will appear on the
display.
Note:
While the multichannel DVD input is selected, the Speaker Configuration settings on
page 74 are ignored, and signals from the multichannel input are fed to the speakers
as they are.
2
To turn the speaker on or off, use the AV receiver’s SPEAKERS [A] and
[B] buttons, or press the [RECEIVER] REMOTE MODE button on the
remote controller and use its [SP A/B] button.
Pressing the remote controller’s [SP A/B] button cycles through the following settings:
Speaker Set A
Speaker Set A&B
Speaker Set B
Off.
The A and B speaker indicators show whether each
speaker set is on or off.
Note that when speaker set B is turned on, speaker
set A is reduced to 5.1-channel playback.

Start playback on the source component.
To watch a DVD or other video source, on your TV, select the video input that’s con-
nected to the AV receiver’s COMPONENT VIDEO OUT, HDMI OUT, or MONITOR
OUT.
On some DVD players, you may need to change the digital or HDMI audio output
settings.
4
To adjust the volume, use the MASTER VOLUME control or the remote
controller’s [VOL] button.
Since the AV receiver is designed for home theaters, it has a wide volume range for
precise adjustment. The volume can be set to Min, 1 through 79, or Max.
Note
: When the subwoofer volume level is set to a positive (+) value, the maximum
master volume level is reduced proportionally.
To set the level of the subwoofer, use the OUTPUT LEVEL control.
Because our ears are less sensitive to very low bass sounds, there’s a temptation to set
the level of the subwoofer too high. As a rule of thumb, set the subwoofer level to what
you think is the optimal level, and then back it off slightly.
