Contour/Tone Settings
The contour controls (available on the remote
control) can be used to make a temporary
change the high or low frequency content at
the frequency extremes. Adjustments to the
contour settings are temporary; they remain
in effect only until a different source input is
selected or the unit is turned off. Permanent
settings can be made using the
Contour Setup
menu.
The settings can be adjusted up or down by
a maximum of 6dB. Changing the high fre-
quency contour (HF) increases or decreases
the treble. Changing the low frequency con-
tour (LF) increases or decreases the bass con-
tent. The changes affect only the speaker or
speaker(s) selected for adjustment in the
Contour
Setup
menu. The settings are shown on the
front panel display as you adjust them.
To adjust the contour settings from the
remote:
1. Press the TONE button on the remote. Ei-
ther LF or HF appears in the OSD and front
panel displays, depending on which ad-
justment is currently active. Press the TONE
button again to toggle to the other adjust-
ment.
2. Press the UP/DOWN buttons on the remote
to increase or decrease the setting. The
display will revert to normal operation fol-
lowing several seconds of inactivity.
NOTE
: The tone adjustments are available for
all surround modes and inputs, except the
MULTI input and analog bypass mode.
Cinema EQ
The EQ button (remote only) activates or de-
activates a special CINEMA EQ setting. This
equalization may be desirable for playback
of movie source material to compensate for
the acoustic differences between a commer-
cial cinema and a home theater environment
by reducing the high-frequency content.
The EQ setting is independent for each source
input. Using the button only changes the set-
ting for the currently active source input.
Tuner Controls
The RSX-1056 features a digital synthesized
AM/FM tuner with RDS capability and 30
station presets. The unit offers a wide range
of tuning options. Here is an overview of the
tuning options (more detailed information is
provided in subsequent sections of this manual):
• Manual frequency tuning tunes up or
down to the next station frequency (when
in frequency tuning mode). Press and re-
lease a TUNING button (CH UP/DOWN
on the remote) to tune.
• Direct frequency tuning lets you en-
ter the desired station frequency digits. Press
the DIRECT button (or the FRQ DIRECT) but-
ton on the remote) and enter the digits us-
ing the NUMERIC buttons.
• Automatic frequency search tuning
searches up or down to find the next re-
ceivable broadcast signal. Press and hold
a TUNING button (CH UP/DOWN on the
remote) for at least one second to search
up or down.
• Station preset tuning lets you directly
enter the number of a memorized station
preset. Enter the number of the memorized
preset using the NUMERIC buttons.
• Preset tuning jumps up/down to the next
memorized station preset. When in PRE-
SET mode, press a TUNING button (CH
UP/DOWN on the remote) to select the
next station preset. Press the PRESET but-
ton on the remote to select PRESET tuning
mode. Press the TUNE button on the remote
to select FREQUENCY tuning mode. Press
the P-TUN button on the remote to toggle
between preset and frequency tuning
modes.
• Preset scan tuning automatically scans
through the memorized station presets,
playing each for 5 seconds. Press the SCAN
button on the remote to begin preset scan-
ning. Press the button again to stop the
scanning and listen to the desired preset.
• RDS (Europe) or RBDS (USA) tuning
provides a range of special tuning and
search features based on data codes en-
coded with the broadcast signal. See the
RDS section of this manual for detailed
information.
NOTE
: The RSX-1056 comes configured for tun-

America or Europe). To change this default set-
ting, see the information on the DEFAULT SETUP
on-screen menu later in this manual.
BAND Buttons
Press the BAND button to toggle between AM
and FM reception. An indicator in the front-
panel display confirms your choice and the
currently tuned station frequency is shown.
TUNING Buttons
The TUNING buttons (labeled CH UP/DOWN
on the remote control) provide three different
tuning functions, depending on the mode of
operation.
In the normal FREQUENCY tuning
mode, press a TUNING button (CH UP/

ally jump to the next station frequency, regard-
less of whether or not a station is broadcast-
ing on that frequency. For auto frequency search
tuning, press and hold the TUNING button for
approximately one second. An AUTO indicator
will appear in the front-panel display and the
tuner will begin scanning up or down through
the frequencies until the next available signal
is detected. If this is not the desired station,
repeat the automatic tuning procedure to find
the next station. Weak stations will be skipped
during auto tuning.

by pressing the TUNE button on the remote
or toggle between FREQUENCY and PRESET
modes by pressing the P-TUN button.
In the PRESET tuning mode, press a
TUNING button (CH UP/DOWN on the re-
mote) and release to jump to the next memo-
rized station preset.

ing the PRESET button on the remote or toggle
between FREQUENCY and PRESET modes by
pressing the P-TUN button. A PRESET indica-
tor appears in the display when PRESET TUN-
ING is activated.

TUNING button (CH UP/DOWN on the re-
mote) to select the desired program type from
