Speaker Setup - Marantz SR5004 Manual

The Outlaws' Guide to the Marantz SR5004
The HDMI column allows the user to select from the three HDMI connections. Note that
each HDMI connection may be assigned to only one input. If an HDMI connection is
specified, the Mode column may be set to "HDMI" to force the input to use the HDMI
connection as an audio source. In some cases, users may prefer to use an HDMI
connection for video only and to use a separate analog or digital audio connection for
audio. Similarly, the Comp. column allows users to select from the three component
video connections. The Video column allows users to select from the four composite
video connections or the last video connection that was active (identified as 1 through 4
and Last). The AUX input's Video column only supports the "Front" setting (for the front
composite and S-video connections) and the SIRIUS tuner input's Video column only
supports the "Last" setting. Neither setting can be changed.
When finished in the Function Input Setup sub-menu, scroll down to "Return" and press
"ENTER" to return to the Input Setup menu. If you will be using the 7.1 Channel analog
input, scroll down one spot to the 7.1Ch Input Setup sub-menu and press "ENTER" to
select it. The first item on this sub-menu is "Video-in", which allows the 7.1ch Input to be
assigned to a specific input (BD, DVD, etc.) or set to use whatever video input was
active when "7.1ch" was selected (Last). Additionally, each of the eight channels for the
7.1ch Input can be adjusted from -12dB to +12dB (or -18dB to +12dB for the
subwoofer).
7.1ch Input Setup
Before leaving the Input Setup menu, you may want to edit the names used for the
SR5004's inputs. This can be done in the Function Rename menu, but it is not essential
for operating the receiver. We will talk in detail about this on page 34. For now, we will
move on to the next step in the Quick Setup process: the speakers. To do that, select
"Return" and press "ENTER" to return to the SR5004's main menu.

Speaker Setup

A number of settings in the Speaker Setup menu can be skipped for the purposes of a
quick setup, as the Audyssey MultEQ automatic calibration process takes care of them.
