Model 976 FAQ
1. I have an older source device that doesn't seem to be working with the Model 976.
What could be going on here?
1A. Make sure to use HDMI IN 5 or 6 when using older HDMI components. HDCP 2.2 is
backwards compatible to HDCP 1.4. If the source device is not 1.4 compliant, you will need to
use HDMI IN 5 or 6.
2. I am hearing some slight noise when connecting the microphone and running the auto
setup; what can I do about this?
2A. Some noise when connecting the microphone and running the auto setup is normal. To help
keep this to a minimum, we recommend plugging and unplugging the microphone when in the
OSD.
3. I run a 5-channel system. When running the auto setup, I get an error message saying
there are no surround back channels?
3A. Before running the auto setup, you will want to tell the Model 976 how many speakers are in
your system. This is done in the Speaker Setup > Speaker Config.
This way, the Model 976 does not think you have a channel problem when testing your system.
4. I noticed in the manual that the Analog inputs do not get converted to Digital. How do I
connect my computer for REW and what does this mean for my analog sources?
4A. That is correct; the analog inputs do not get converted to digital. To connect your computer
for REW, we recommend using an HDMI output on your computer and utilizing ASIO4ALL.
Having pure analog inputs means no additional conversions; it also means your analog inputs
are not affected by processing - this includes the EQ.
5. Can I watch video while monitoring my Bluetooth or Tuner inputs?
5A. Yes. Bluetooth and Tuner are both partially mappable inputs. First go into the OSD, then the
Input Setup menu, and choose the input you would like to configure whether it be Bluetooth or
Tuner. From this point, simply assign which HDMI input you would like to monitor for video.
6. How do I reset my Model 976?
6A. First, make sure your amplifier is OFF and the Model 976 is ON . Hold both the 'INFO' and
'SOURCE' buttons on the front of the Model 976 until 'RESET' appears on the Model 976's
display, at which point you can release the buttons. Once the reset is done, the unit will power
off.
7. How many inputs are mappable?
