Attenuating the Input Signal

When the input level of the analog source is too high, the sounds
will be distorted. If this happens, you need to attenuate the input
signal level to prevent the sound distortion.
• Once you have made an adjustment, it is memorized for each
analog source.
Press and hold INPUT ATT (INPUT ANALOG) so that the
INPUT ATT indicator lights up on the display.
• Each time you press and hold the button, the input attenuator
mode turns on ("ATT ON") or off ("NORMAL").
Note:
This function is not valid when DVD MULTI is selected or when
Analog Direct is activated.
