Playback

Tips

I want the volume not to become too loud by mistake

Set the volume upper limit for “Volume Limit” in the menu beforehand. This prevents children or others from increasing the volume too much by mistake. You can set this for each zone. (Volumelink, Volume Limitlink)

I want to keep the volume at the same level when I turn the power on

By default, the volume setting when power was previously set to standby on this unit is applied at next power on with no change. To use a fixed volume level, set the volume level at power on for “Power On Volume” in the menu. You can set this for each zone. (Volumelink, Power On Volumelink)

I want to have the subwoofer always output audio

Depending on the input signals and sound mode, the subwoofer may not output audio. When “Subwoofer Output” in the menu is set to “LFE + Main”, you can have the subwoofer always output audio. link

I want to make human voices in the movies clearer

Select a setting that makes the dialog easier to hear in the option menu “Dialog Enhancer”. link

I want to keep bass and clarity during playback at a lower volume level

Set “Dynamic EQ” in the menu to “On”. This setting corrects the frequency characteristics to allow you to enjoy clear sound without the bass being lost even during playback at a lower volume level. link

I want to automatically adjust the volume level difference in content such as TV and movies

Set “Dynamic Volume” in the menu. Volume level changes (between quiet scenes and loud scenes) in TV shows or movies are automatically adjusted to your desired level. link

I want to set the optimized listening environment after changing the configuration/position of the speakers or changing a speaker to a new one

Perform Audyssey® Setup. This automatically makes the optimized speaker settings for the new listening environment. link

I want to combine a desired video with the current music

Set “Video Select” in the option menu to “On”. You can combine the current music with your desired video source from a Set-top Box or Blu-ray, etc. while listening to music from the Tuner, CD, Phono, HEOS Music, USB or Bluetooth. link

I want to skip unused input sources

Set unused input sources for “Hide Sources” in the menu. This allows you to skip unused input sources when turning the INPUT selector knob on this unit. link

I want to enjoy the same music in all zones at the home party, etc.

Set “All Zone Stereo” in the option menu to “Start”. You can simultaneously play back music in another room (ZONE2) that is played back in MAIN ZONE. link

I want to minimize the delay in video signals when I’m playing a game on my game console

When the video is delayed against button operations with the controller on the game console, set “Video Mode” in the menu to “Game”. link

I want to use the external power amplifier to the Front channel for my 11.1-channel speaker system
