When is my volume too loud? A volume above 80 decibels can be harmful to hearing. When the volume exceeds decibels, direct damage can even occur.
The chance of hearing damage depends on the listening frequency and duration. Can bluetooth devices of different brands be connected to each other? Reduce the Contrast until these effects disappear and the video still looks realistic. MPEG Noise Reduction: This setting is designed to address two specific types of video distortion: mosquito noise and blocking artifacts. Cross Color Suppressor: Turn this setting on to remove cross color artifacts, which can occur when high-frequency luminance brightness signals are misinterpreted as chrominance color signals, causing unwanted flickering, flashing colors or rainbow patterns.
This setting is not available when you are using HDMI sources or when no video signal is present. Film Mode Detect: This setting is accessible only when the Deinterlacing setting is turned on.
It compensates for the different frame rates in which film and video are shot. Film is shot at a rate of 24 frames per second progressive scan , while video is shot at slightly less than 60 frames per second interlaced. The AVR is able to detect whether the program was originally shot on film and transferred to video e. Reduce the setting when the surrounding light is dimmed to improve the sharpness of the picture. Color Adjustment 1. Set the level so that the colors look strong but still natural, not overdone.
If the color level is too high, depending on the TV, some of the bars will seem wider or the color intensity will not increase when the control is turned up.
Test the color intensity with a video of pictures of faces, flowers, fruit and vegetables. Before beginning, place your loudspeakers as explained in the Place Your Speakers section, on page 13, and connect them to the AVR. Consult the technical specifications for all of your speakers and locate the frequency response, usually given as a range, e.
Write down the lowest frequency that each of your speakers is capable of playing Hz in the above example as the crossover in Table A3 in the Appendix. For the subwoofer, write down the transducer size. Sending the lowest notes to small satellite speakers will result in bad sound and may even damage the speakers. The highest notes may not be heard at all through the subwoofer.
Sit in your usual listening position, and make the room as quiet as possible. With the receiver and video display turned on, press the AVR button to display the menu system. Select the Speaker Setup menu, and then select Manual Setup. A screen similar to the one shown below will appear. This way, each loudspeaker in your system will perform at its best, delivering a more powerful and enjoyable sound experience. To save the current settings, select the Back option.
Ideally, all of your speakers would be placed in a circle, with the listening position at the center. However, you may have had to place some speakers a little farther away from the listening position than others.
Sounds that are supposed to arrive simultaneously from different speakers may blur, due to different arrival times. Your AVR provides a Distance adjustment that compensates for these real-world speaker placement differences.
This selection lets you program the correct setting for each speaker group. The settings in this menu affect the remainder of the speaker setup process and the availability of various surround modes at any time.
Measure the distance from each speaker to the listening position, and write it down in Table A4 in the Appendix. Even if all of your speakers are the same distance from the listening position, enter your speaker distances as described in Set the Speaker Distances, on page Back option if your main system is a 7. See Install a Multizone System, on page 21, for more information.
Configure the speakers manually, as explained below. This setting depends upon the Crossover setting you selected for the front left and right speakers. All low-frequency information will always be sent to the subwoofer.
OFF: Select this setting when no subwoofer is in use. All low-frequency information will be sent to the front left and right speakers. LFE: This setting plays low-frequency information contained in the left and right program channels through the front left and right speakers, and directs only the LFE-channel information to the subwoofer.
Set the Speaker Distances As described above in Step Two, when you measured the distances from each of your speakers to the listening position, your AVR provides an adjustment that compensates for the different distances so that the sound from each speaker will reach the listening position at the proper time.
This process will improve the clarity and detail of the sound. Refer to Table A3 to see the crossover frequencies that you wrote down for your speakers. Write down the settings in Table A6 in the Appendix. Speaker Setup 10 ft Enter the distance from each speaker to the listening position that you measured in Step Two and recorded in Table A4 in the Appendix see page You can enter distances between 0 and 30 feet 9.
The default distance for all speakers is 10 feet 3m. The default unit of measurement is feet. To change the unit to meters, return to the main AVR menu. Press the OK button to change the setting. In a home theater system with up to seven main channels plus up to two subwoofers, achieving proper imaging becomes both more critical and more complex. The goal is to ensure that each channel is heard at the listening position with equal loudness when signals of equal loudness are played through them.
Press the OK button to display the Speaker Setup menu. Adjust the levels so that the test tone sounds equally loud to you when it plays through each speaker. Then adjust the individual speaker levels. Adjusting the surround speakers so they are always as loud as the front speakers could make dialogue difficult to understand and will make some sound effects sound unrealistically loud. Placing the subwoofer in a corner will always tend to increase its bass output, while placing it away from any walls or corners will always tend to lessen its bass output.
See Install a Multizone System, on page 21, for installation information. Press the OK button to display the Zone 2 menu. Source: This line lets you select the source input for Zone 2.
You may select a different source from the one currently operating in the main listening area. However, if the same source has been selected for both the main listening area and Zone 2, listeners in both areas will hear the same content. Only analog audio sources are available to the multizone system.
To hear digital devices such as a CD player in Zone 2, follow these steps: 1. Make a note in Table A5 on page 47 to record which set of analog inputs you used. Leave the Audio Input From Source set to the digital input. You must initially select iPod as a source in Zone 1 and begin playback of a track or playlist from there. Then you can select iPod as the Zone 2 source and control playback from within Zone 2 even if you switch Zone 1 to a different source.
For example, if you are listening to iPod as the source in Zone 1 and switch the source in Zone 2 to FM radio, it will switch the source in Zone 1 to FM and vice versa. When this line is set to Zone 2, you may configure the main listening room for only up to 5. Press the AVR button and navigate to the System line.
Press the OK button to display the System Settings menu. The light inside the Volume Control will go out when the display is partly or fully dimmed, but the Power Indicator will always remain lit to remind you that the AVR is powered on.
In normal operation, leave this setting at Off, as audio will be played through the AVR. To use the TV by itself, without the home theater system, turn this setting to On. Turn this setting to On to allow control communication between the HDMI devices; turn the setting to Off to forbid control communication.

Use the Number buttons to make the entries for all of these settings. The AVR will enter the Standby mode. When you turn the AVR back on, it will attempt to connect to the network using the settings you entered. If the AVR cannot connect to the network using the manual settings, contact your ISP or network administrator for assistance.
Select this line and press the OK button. The AVR will go into the Standby mode. After you turn the AVR back on, the new network settings will be in effect. Page 43 Volume Units: This setting lets you select whether the AVR displays the volume level in the conventional decibel scale or on a numeric scale from 0 to When the decibel scale is used, 0dB is the maximum recommended volume, with lower volumes displayed as negative values.
The decibel scale is the default setting. When Volume Default is set to Off, the AVR will turn on at the last-used volume setting from the previous listening session. Select between meters and feet. Refer to that section for details about setting the calibration. With Settings Lock set to On, the screen shown below will appear whenever someone attempts to access a setting in one of those menus.
Settings Lock The settings lock is currently On. Menu Appearance Menu Transparency: This selection lets you determine whether video programs will be visible when the menu system is in use.
Select Normal for a fully transparent background, Medium for partial transparency or Opaque to completely block video programs while menus are on screen. Select how long the message remains visible, from 2 to 10 seconds, with a default of 3 seconds. Menus: This setting governs how long the Surround Modes, Video Modes and Audio Effects menus remain visible after the last adjustment: 5 seconds, 10 seconds, 30 seconds, 1 minute or 5 minutes.
Select a time-out period of 5, 10 or 15 the default minutes, or no time-out, which leaves the menus on screen until manually cleared. A time-out period avoids the possibility of burn-in damage to plasma or CRT displays. Select a period of 5 minutes, 10 minutes, 20 minutes, 30 minutes or 1 hour, or turn off the screen saver.
