(LINE OUT) connectors .
o By default, the setting is ON .
ON
This will enable adjustment of the analog output level using this
unit's VOLUME knob . Select this if you want to adjust the volume
using this unit .
o Set this to ON when the analog audio output (LINE OUT) con-
nectors are connected to a power amplifier .

Through output setting

THRU>***
Set whether to use the input connectors as signal through connectors .
o By default, the setting is OFF .
OFF
No through inputs are set .
LINE1
LINE2
Signals are output without volume being adjusted by the unit .
V
If you select inputs connected to an ordinary line-level
device, signals that are too strong could be output to the
speakers, resulting in damage to them.
"THRU" appears on the display instead of the volume level set by
using the VOLUME knob .
For example, the speakers connected to a power amplifier con-
nected to this unit can be shared as the front speakers of the AV
amplifier if the pre-out connectors (for example, FRONT L/R) of
the AV amplifier are connected to this unit's LINE 2 connectors
and LINE2 is set to THRU . (The AV amplifier controls volume adjust-
ment when the input source is set to "LINE2" . )
o The volume cannot be adjusted for input connectors set to
THRU, but fine adjustments can be made using BAL and LVL
settings .
V
Always connect a device that has a volume control to the
input connectors set to THRU. Use that device to mini-
mize the volume before switching the input source, and
then gradually raise the volume level.
