Analog Stereo

This type of recording includes any conven-
tional stereo signal from the RSP-1068's ana-
log inputs, including analog audio from CD
players, FM tuners, VCRs, tape decks, etc.
Analog stereo inputs require a choice about
how the signal is routed through the RSP-1068.
One option is the analog bypass mode. In this
mode, the stereo signal is routed directly to
the volume control and the outputs. It is pure
2-channel stereo, bypassing all of the digital
circuitry. None of the bass management fea-
tures, speaker level settings, contour settings,
or delay settings are active. There is no sub-
woofer output. A full-range signal is sent di-
rectly to two speakers.
29
The other option converts the analog inputs
to digital signals, passing them through the
digital processors in the RSP-1068. This op-
tion allows all of the features to be active in-
cluding bass management settings, crossovers,
subwoofer outputs, contour settings, etc. In this
mode, you can select several surround modes
including 2-CH Stereo, Dolby 3-Stereo, 5-CH
Stereo, 7-CH Stereo modes. You can also use
Dolby Pro Logic II or Pro Logic IIx surround,
DTS Neo:6 surround, or one of the MUSIC
1-4 DSP modes.

Other Settings

Temporary Speaker Level

The levels of all channels should be calibrated
using the TEST TONE procedure during the
initial setup of the RSP-1068. You can make
a temporary change in the relative volume of
the center, surround, center back, or subwoofer
channels using buttons on the remote control
or the front panel controls. These temporary
adjustments only remain in effect until a dif-
ferent input is selected or until the RSP-1068
is turned off.
To adjust speaker levels using the
remote:
1. Press a selection button on the remote to select
a channel (or pair of channels) for adjust-
ment. Press the C button to adjust the CEN-
TER channel. Press the S button to adjust the
SUBWOOFER channel. Press the R button
to adjust the rear SURROUND or CENTER
BACK channels (each press of the R button
toggles between the SURROUND channels
and the CENTER BACK channels). The se-
lected speaker and its current setting appear
briefly in the display.
2. Use the UP or DOWN buttons on the re-
mote to adjust the output level of the se-
lected channel(s).
: If no level adjustment is made for 10
NOTE
seconds, the levels revert to the default cali-
brated settings.
As you select a speaker in the above adjust-
ments, you may notice an addition choice,
"group delay". See the following for an ex-
planation of this feature.
