Temporarily turning off the sound
To turn off the sound momentarily, press the MUTING button on the
remote controller. When pressed, “Muting” is displayed on the TX-
SR800. Press the MUTING button again to turn the sound back on.
Adjusting the bass and treble
You can adjust the bass and treble levels at the Setup Menu → Audio
Adjust Menu → Tone Control Sub-menu (see page 53). 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). For multichannel sources,
these dials will not work if the tone control is set to “Direct” or “Pure
Audio.”

Listening with headphones
To listen with headphones, plug a pair of headphones with a standard
stereo plug into the PHONES jack on the TX-SR800 front panel.
When you connect headphones, no sound will be heard from the
speakers.
When the headphones are unplugged, the TX-SR800 returns to its
original listening mode. When using the headphones, you can only
use the Direct, Stereo, and Mono listening modes. (Available modes
can vary depending on the current input source.)
If you have selected MULTI CH INPUT, you will only hear the
sound only output to the front right and left channels.
The headphone volume level can be adjusted at the Setup Menu (see
page 60).
Note:
The signal to the remote zone (Zone 2) will not be affected by
whether or not headphones are connected.
Using the sleep time (remote controller only)
The SLEEP button enables you to set the TX-SR800 to turn off
automatically after a specified time period. If you press it once, the
TX-SR800 will turn off after 90 minutes. Each time it is pressed
thereafter, the remaining time until the TX-SR800 turns off
decreases by 10 minutes (i.e., from 90 to 80 minutes). While, the
sleep function is enabled, you can press the SLEEP button to see
how much time is left. If you now press the SLEEP button, the
remaining time will be reduced down to the nearest 10 minutes. If it
is pressed again, then the remaining time will be decreased by 10
minutes each time it is pressed (e.g., if SLEEP is pressed with the
display reading 54 minutes, it will be reduced to 50 minutes. If it is
pressed again, it will then be reduced to 40, then 30, and so on). If the
SLEEP button is pressed when the time displayed is less than 10
minutes, the sleep function is cancelled.
If you are using the remote zone (Zone 2), it will turn off at the same
time as the main zone. If you want to set the sleep function for Zone
2 only, set the sleep function with main zone turned on and then put
the main zone into the standby state.
