Input Config.

e audio and video settings on this page of the Setup

menu can be tailored specically and independently to

the currently selected input.

When a dierent input is selected on the Input line, all

the input-specic settings for that input are displayed

below it. ese settings are applied to the named Input

only and are stored in memory and recalled each time

the unit is powered up and whenever that input is

selected.

Input – e currently selected input connectors to

which the settings below relate.

Name – e display name of the input. You can change

the name of any input to more closely match your setup.

For example, if you had two satellite receivers, you could

connect the main receiver to the Sat audio and video

input connectors and change the Name to ‘SAT 1’. You

could then connect the second satellite receiver to the

VCR audio and video input connectors, but change the

VCR Name to ‘SAT 2’. It is then clearer to users of your

AVR500/AVR600/AV888 which inputs they wish to

select when scrolling though.

Lip Sync – Each input can have its own setting

to add a time delay between the audio and video

signals to compensate for the sound and picture not

being synchronised. is is normally required when

video processing is used in the system for scaling or

de-interlacing video. e range of lip sync delay is –5 to

+220 milliseconds.

e lip sync adjustment can only correct for delayed

video. If the audio is late set lip sync to its minimum.

Mode – Sets the initial audio decode mode for stereo

sources on this input.

<Last Mode recalls the last used setting for this

input when a stereo source was applied. See section

‘Multichannel source modes’ on page 41 for more

information.

Ext. Mode – Sets the initial audio decode mode for

multichannel digital sources on this input.

<Last Mode recalls the last used setting for this

input when a stereo source was applied. See section

‘Multichannel source modes’ on page 41 for more

information.

Treble –

Bass –

ese allow you to alter the bass and treble tone controls

for all currently active speakers for each individual

input. For example, if your PVR source sounds a little

bass light, you can always correct for this by selecting

PVR on the Input line at the top of this menu and add

2 or 3dB to the Bass control. en, whenever the PVR

input is selected, the bass is automatically boosted for as

long as that input is selected.

Room EQ – When the Auto Speaker Setup function is

run it also calculates Room Equalisation coecients to

remove some of the worst eects of resonant frequencies

of the room at the listening position. By default Room

EQ is not applied to any of the source inputs, however

you can enable them on a per-input basis as you wish.

<Not Calculated: (Information only) Auto Speaker

Setup has not been run or has errors so cannot be

selected.

<On: Room EQ is applied to the current source.

<O: Room EQ is not applied to the current source.

Input Trim – Sets the maximum analogue input

signal level (sensitivity) on this input before the ADC

(Analogue-to-Digital converter) signal path clips.

Options are 0.5, 1, 2 and 4 volts RMS maximum input.

e default is 2Vrms maximum.

For example, analogue sources with low output levels

may benet by choosing the 1V maximum setting,

or the 0.5V maximum setting if the source has a

very low output. is helps maximise signal-to-noise

performance of the unit and also helps keep the various

analogue sources sounding about the same level for any

given volume control setting.

Dolby Volume –Dolby Volume is an intelligent system

that improves the perceived audio frequency response

at lower listening levels and corrects for volume

inconsistencies between sources (e.g. a rock radio

station and a DVD) and between programming (e.g. a

TV show and advertisement breaks).

<O: (default) Dolby Volume is not applied to this

input.

<Cinema: enables Dolby Volume for this source and

congures the input for audio which comes mostly

from movie soundtracks.

<Music: enables Dolby Volume for this source and

congures the input for audio which comes from

other sources (CD, TV, Satellite, Tuner, etc.).

Dolby Leveller – is setting of Dolby Volume controls

how closely quiet and loud sources and programme

content are matched to each other, based on the

ear’s perception of loudness. e range of values is

0 (minimal levelling) to 10 (maximum levelling).

e default setting is 9, however we recommend

experimenting with lower values if all your source

material is more closely matched in level. If the Volume

Leveller function is set o, no level matching between

sources and programme material is performed. Note

however that turning the Dolby Leveller setting of Dolby

Volume to ‘O’ is not the same as turning the entire

function of Dolby Volume to ‘O’, as volume related

frequency response processing is still active. See Dolby

Volume on page 48 for more information.

DV Calib. Oset – e Calibration Oset parameter of

Dolby Volume allows you to compensate for speaker

eciencies and listening position. e default value

is 0 and this should normally produce a good result

when the speaker levels of the AVR600 (or AV888 and

amplier combination) are set using a sound pressure

level meter.

See the Dolby Volume section on page 48 for further

information on Calibration Oset.

Surround EX – Sets how the unit should congure

its decode mode when a Dolby Digital EX bitstream

is received. Note that this setting only applies if you

have Surround Back loudspeakers. You may wish to

experiment with these two decode modes to see which

you prefer with Dolby Digital EX encoded material.

Options are Auto DD EX, Auto PLIIx and Manual.

< Auto DD EX: When a Dolby Digital EX-agged

bitstream is detected, the decode mode

automatically changes to Dolby Digital EX. is can

be temporarily overridden by pressing the MODE

button on the remote or front panel.

< Auto PLIIx: When a Dolby Digital EX-agged

bitstream is detected, the decode mode

automatically changes to Pro Logic IIx Movie. is

can be temporarily overridden by pressing the

MODE

button on the remote or front panel.

< Manual: e received Dolby Digital EX is treated

as if it is an ordinary Dolby Digital stream in that it

does not automatically select the EX or PLIIx decode

modes. Instead, the previously used decode mode

for a multichannel digital source on this input is

applied. However, either of the EX or PLIIx decode

modes can be applied manually by pressing the

MODE button.

Stereo Mode – If you have congured your system to

have a subwoofer, then you have the exibility to

choose how bass information is distributed between

the front le/right speakers and the subwoofer when

listening to stereo (two channel only) analogue and

digital sources. Choose the option which gives you

the most solid, even sounding bass. If you are using

a subwoofer for stereo, please also see Sub Stereo

below to set the level of the subwoofer. For best

results test with a set-up disc or live programme

material. is setting can be used to override your

normal speaker settings in the Spkr Types menu

whenever the unit plays stereo material. It is quite

common to nd that two channel stereo music

listening is best done with a slightly dierent sub/

speaker setting than for surround movies.

< As Spkr Types: When an analogue or digital stereo

source is played, your normal speaker conguration

(as in Spkr Types menu) is used to reproduce the

signal.

< Le/Right: Full frequency stereo information. All

audio is sent to the front le and right speakers only

without any bass redirection. You can use this setting

if you consider your front le/right speakers to be

able to handle the full frequency range of music.

If you have set your front le/right speaker size as

Small in the Spkr Types setup page, you may wish

to use this option to override the setting to Large

for stereo music listening, if you have full frequency

range le/right speakers.

It can oen be benecial to set full frequency range

speakers to Small in the Spkr Types setup page for

use with movies, if you have a subwoofer in your

system. Doing so may deliver more impact on

movie soundtracks as subwoofers are designed to

handle reproduction of high bass content. However

you may nd that for stereo music a better overall

result is obtained by not using the subwoofer and

eectively treating the front le/right speakers as

Large.

< Le/Right+Sub: Full frequency range stereo is fed to

the front le and right speakers and extracted bass is

sent to the subwoofer. In this case the low frequency

information is eectively duplicated.

< Sat+Sub: Use this setting if you really do have Small

satellite front le and right speakers, or if you prefer

the overall sound of bass being handled by the

subwoofer. Full bass management is used so that

analogue and digital stereo sources are fed to the

DSP where the bass is ltered o front le and right

and redirected to the subwoofer.

NOTE

e Stereo Mode function is not available when

using an analogue source in Stereo Direct mode.
