The first name in digital audio. AVR-2802 System Setup Guide & Recommendations Be sure all components are properly connected, and that the Speakers are placed and wired correctly to the AVR-2802 (and amplifier if setup for Surround EX/dts ES) before starting the System Setup. (Speaker and Amplifier Hook-up diagrams are attached at the end of this document) Be sure the AVR-2802’s Monitor 1 Video Output (S-video or composite) is connected to the appropriate video input on the TV/Monitor/PTV.
SPEAKER CONFIGURATION l These settings are extremely crucial to the overall sound quality and performance of the AVR-2802. Use the “Left/Right” arrow keys to select size and the “Up/Down” arrow keys to select the speaker channel to adjust. l Your options for speaker sizes are ‘Large’, ‘Small’, or ‘None’. These settings are not based on the physical size of your speakers, but they do tell the AVR-2802 about the overall frequency response of the speakers you are connecting to it.
DELAY TIME l This menu allows you to easily configure the delay times for all the speakers, including the subwoofer, in the system. We suggest you use a tape measure to help you be as accurate as possible. This is a performance advantage over other receivers that allow only center channel (front and/or rear) delay time adjustment. • • • Upon entering the setup item, you will need to choose which unit of measurement you prefer, meters or feet. Select using the “Left/Right” arrow keys.
Use the “Up/Down” arrows to raise/lower the level from each channel, and use the “Left/Right” arrows to select the channel to adjust. Take your time! • We recommend that once you have completed adjusting the levels, to write down and secure, the levels for every channel. This will help you to reset the system quickly to reference if someone changes the levels, which you know will happen. • Once finished press the “Enter” key.
