Configuring Inputs
A key step in setting up the RSX-1058 is to
configure each source input using the INPUT
SETUP screens. Configuring the inputs allows
you to set defaults for a number of settings
including the type of input connector, the
desired surround mode, custom labels that
appear in the displays when a source is se-
lected, and many more. The following OSD
menus are used to configure the inputs.

The INPUT SETUP menu configures the source
inputs and is reached from the MAIN menu.
The screen provides the following options, se-
lected by placing the highlight on the desired
line using the UP/DOWN buttons:
LISTEN: changes the current listening input
source (CD, TUNER, TAPE, VIDEO 1–5, &
MULTI INPUT). Changing this input also al-
lows you to select a specific input for con-
figuring.
VIDEO INPUT: select the video source to
be displayed on the TV monitor. Assign the
input to a source component you have con-
nected by selecting from Component 1–3,
S–Video !–3, Compenent !–3 and HDMI
1–4. For audio only sources (such as a CD
player), you would typically specify OFF so
that no video is displayed.
INPUT LABEL: The eight character labels
for the all eight inputs can be customized.
Place the highlight on this line to begin la-
belling. The first character in the label will
be flashing.
1. Press the +/– buttons on the remote to
change the first letter, scrolling through
the list of available characters.
2. Press the ENT button on the remote to
confirm that letter and move to the next
position.
3. Repeat steps 1 and 2 until all eight char-
acters (including blank spaces) have been
completed. The final press of the ENT but-
ton saves the new label.
AUDIO INPUT: assigns a physical input con-
nection to use as the default for the source
displayed in the first line of the menu. The
options are ANALOG input, four OPTICAL
digital inputs (OPTICAL 1–4), and three
COAXIAL digital inputs (COAXIAL 1–3),
HDMI Audio.
NOTE: HDMI Audio input is assigned to a
specific VIDEO input.

When a digital input is the default, the unit
will check for a digital signal when the IN-
PUT SOURCE is selected. If no digital signal
is present, the unit will automatically revert
to the analog input.
When an ANALOG input is the default, the
unit will not access a digital signal, even
though one may be present at the digital in-
put; thus, the ANALOG setting forces the unit
to use an analog signal. Assigning a digital
input (with its auto-sensing) is generally the
preferred configuration for any source with
a digital output.
INPUT ATTENUATION: the audio INPUT ATT
function allows you to reduce the level of the
audio input by up to –6dB in 1dB steps.
NOTE: If a source connected to a digital input
is selected, that signal will automatically be sent
to both digital outputs for recording.
CINEMA EQ: The RSX-1058 includes a CIN-
EMA EQ feature which reduces the high-fre-
quency content of movie soundtracks to simu-
late the frequency response of a large movie
theater and/or eliminate sibilance. You can
turn the CINEMA EQ on or off as the default
setting for the selected input using this menu
choice. In general, this setting should be OFF
for most source inputs, unless you are consis-
tently bothered by excessively bright sound
from movie soundtracks.
12V TRIGGER: The RSX-1058 has six 12V
trigger outputs (labeled 1–6) that supply a
12V DC signal to turn on Rotel components
and other components as needed. This menu
item turns on specific 12V trigger outputs
whenever the indicated source is selected.
You can select any numbers from 1–6 to al-
low the 12V trigger output to appear, such
as 1,3,5,6. For example, set up the VIDEO
1 input to turn on the 12V trigger for your
DVD player. Press the +/- button to select
(enable or disable) numbers and press ENT
at each step.
DEFAULT MODE: The DEFAULT MODE
setting allows you to set a default surround
sound mode for each source input. The de-
fault setting will be used unless the source
material triggers automatic decoding of a
particular type or unless the default setting
is temporarily overridden by the front panel
or remote surround mode buttons.
