[. . . ] When all crossover settings have been made, or in those cases where none are needed, press the ¤ Button n so that the cursor is next to the BASS MGR line to make the final setting on this menu. This setting allows you to use the same speaker configuration and crossover settings for all inputs, or to have different settings for each input. In most cases the factory default setting of GLOBAL will be appropriate, as most listeners do not need to have individualized speaker settings. However, some listeners, particularly those with full-range front speakers that are used for both movies and music, may prefer that different crossover points be used when listening to music through a CD player as opposed to a movie from a DVD player, VCR or cable/satellite set-top. If you wish to customize the crossovers to each input, make certain that the cursor is on the BASS MGR line and press the < / > Buttons o so that INDEPENDENT appears in highlighted video. When this setting is entered by exiting the menu, the configuration settings just entered will apply to the current input ONLY, and you will need to go back to the INPUT menu to select another input, and then return to this menu page again to change the settings for the next input. Repeat the procedure for any input where you wish to have a different set of speaker configuration and crossover settings. When all speaker selections have been made, press the ¤ Button n and then the Set Button p to return to the MASTER MENU. designed to accommodate a typical listening area rather than require the precise measurement to one "sweet spot" position. Due to the differences in the way each surround mode operates, some modes allow for a greater range of delay times than others. To avoid problems, we recommend that delay times be adjusted using the Dolby Digital mode. If a different mode is selected at a later time, the AVR 330 will automatically restrict the delay settings to those required by the surround mode in use. Delay times are only adjustable for the Dolby modes, so you will notice that the DELAY menu may not be accessed when any other mode, such as a DTS or Logic 7 option, has been selected. In addition, when a non-Dolby Digital mode such as Dolby 3 Stereo or Pro Logic II is selected, adjustments may be made to the Surround speakers only. To set the delay time for a specific input, the DELAY ADJUST menu (Figure 7) should be visible on your on-screen display. If the system is not already at that point, press the OSD Button v to bring up the MASTER MENU, press the ¤ Button n until the on-screen > cursor is pointing at the DELAY ADJUST line. NOTE: In order to adjust the Delay settings for the surround back channels, a Dolby Digital or DTS source must be playing. This enables the system to activate the surround back processing mode. /RI ER OUN BA OOF MG TO LFE) L ENU Figure 6 To change the setting for any of the three speaker groups, press the //¤ Buttons n until the cursor is next to the line where you wish to make a change and then press the < / > Buttons o until the desired setting appears. The available choices at which point low-frequency information will be sent to the subwoofer, rather than to the main speaker channel, are 40Hz, 60Hz, 80Hz, 100Hz, 120Hz and 200Hz. Pick the choice that is identical to the information for the speakers, or if an exact match is not possible, pick the closest choice that is ABOVE the speaker's lowfrequency limit or crossover point to avoid the creation of a low-frequency "hole" where your system will have no bass information. In cases where LARGE has been selected as the front channel speaker option and LFE+L/R has been selected as the subwoofer option, the front channel sound information below the setting shown will be sent to BOTH the front channel speakers and the subwoofer. Note, also, that when the LARGELFE+L/R setting has been selected, the crossover point is set by making adjustments at the SUBWOOFER line, but the setting for the front left/right speakers will automatically change in tandem * >F C S S U R E U U N O N R R I DELAY N T R R T T ER OUND BACK :FEET TO ADJUST : : : : * 1 1 1 1 0 0 0 0 F F F F T T T T Delay Settings Due to the different distances between the listening position for the front channel speakers and the surround speakers, the amount of time it takes for sound to reach your ears from the front versus surround speakers differs. You may compensate for this difference through the use of the delay settings to adjust the timing for the speaker placement and acoustic conditions in your listening room or home theater. [. . . ] Note that this may take a while, depending on how many commands are in the memory that need to be erased. When the Program/SPL Indicator c goes out, the remote has been reset to the factory settings. 38 PROGRAMMING THE REMOTE FUNCTION LIST No. Button Name 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 Power On Power Off Mute AVR DVD CD Tape VID 1 VID 2 VID 3 VID 4 Dim AM/FM 6/8 Ch.
