STEREO DIRECT
To listen to a pure analogue stereo input, press the
Direct mode automatically bypasses all processing and any surround
functions. In Direct mode, digital processing is shut down to improve
the sound quality and reduces digital noise within the AV8 to an
absolute minimum. The LED above the
panel also lights to indicate this mode.
NOTE: When the digital processing is shut down, no digital output
is available.
VOLUME CONTROL
It is important to realise that the position of the volume control
indicator bar is not an accurate indication of the power delivered to
your loudspeakers. The AV8 often delivers its full output power long
before the volume control reaches its maximum position, particularly
when listening to heavily recorded music. In comparison, some movie
sountracks can appear to be very quiet, as many directors like to keep
the maximum levels in reserve for special effect sequences.
If your system is set up in THX reference configuration, the volume
range will cover –53dB to +18dB, where 0dB is the THX reference
level at which the movie director intended the movie to be reproduced.
If your room is small you may find this too loud, so reduce the level until
you are comfortable.
HEADPHONES
To use headphones with the AV8, plug the headphones into the socket
on the left hand side of the front panel.
When headphones are plugged into the headphones socket the
outputs for the zone to which they are assigned is muted. If that zone
is zone 1 and it is in a surround sound mode, the audio will be down-
mixed to two channels (2.0). The two-channel down-mix is required
so that the centre channel and surround information can be heard via
the headphones.
NOTE: If the headphones are selected to zone 2, only analogue
sources can be heard as there is no digital-to-analogue conversion
available for zone 2.
