Volume Control; How To Navigate Volume Control Level Setting; Auto Sense - NAD C399 Owner's Manual

VOLUME CONTROL

Volume control can be set to either Variable or Fixed level.
Variable: Volume level is adjusted using the volume knob or SR 10's
[VOLD/F] buttons.
Fixed: Output level is fixed and the C 389's Volume Control is bypassed.
This feature is sometimes referred to as "Cinema Bypass" because it allows
the C 389 to be used for the front channels of a surround sound system by
relegating the volume control function to the surround processor.
At Fixed volume level setting, front panel display will show "xx.x dB Fixed" as
the volume control is adjusted.
