MENU 1

Adjusting the L/R balance

BAL>***
Adjust the left-right balance .
This can be set to values between L 6 . 0 dB and R 6 .0 dB in 0 .5dB
increments . This can also be set so that just one channel is muted .
o By default, the setting is 0 . 0 dB (no balance adjustment) .
o This setting can be made for each input .
o When the remote control AMP button setting (AMPRM>) is ON,
this setting (BAL>) will not be shown in MENU 1 . Use the buttons
in the AMP section on the remote control to set it (page 24) .
Muting just one channel
Press the ; button to select "BAL>R-only" to output only the right
channel .
Likewise, press the l button to select "BAL>L-only" to output only
the left channel .

Adjusting the input gain

LVL>***
Adjust the input gain for the selected input connector type .
This can be set to values between −18 . 0 dB and +18 . 0 dB in 0 . 5 dB
increments .
o By default, the setting is 0 . 0 dB .
o This setting can be made for each input .
o When the remote control AMP button setting (AMPRM>) is ON,
this setting (LVL>) will not be shown in MENU 1 . Use the buttons
in the AMP section on the remote control to set it (page 24) .
Note about settings and sound quality
BAL (left-right balance) and LVL (input gain adjustment) are both
settings related to volume . This unit's microcomputer compre-
hensively analyzes these settings and the VOLUME knob setting
to conduct unified control with a volume control amplifier in one
place .
For this reason, unlike ordinary amplifiers that pass audio signals
through multiple circuits, these settings will not degrade the
audio quality .

Clock setting

CLK>***
Use this to set synchronization with an external clock .
o By default, the setting is OFF .
o This setting can be made for each input .
o Set this to OFF when connected to a source device, other than
NET or USB input, that does not support clock synchronization .
o Nothing will be shown when set to Bluetooth, LINE 1 or LINE 2 .
OFF
Clock synchronization is not used . The unit will operate with the
clock of the input digital signal .
During NET and USB input, the internal oscillator will be used and
the CLOCK indicator will light green .
IN
In this mode, the unit is synchronized with the 10MHz clock signal
input through its 10MHz IN CLOCK connector from a clock generator .
The CLOCK indicator lights . The CLOCK indicator blinks when in
the process of synchronizing or unable to synchronize .
o The clock frequency that can be input is 10 MHz . The input
audio signal and the input clock signal must be synchronized .
o Be aware that during music playback, if the clock generator
is turned off or the BNC coaxial cable that is supplying the
10MHz clock signal is disconnected, causing the clock signal to
stop, a loud noise could be emitted from the speakers .
