SP31 MULTI-CHANNEL PROCESSOR USER GUIDE
Changing the volume
The SP31 allows you to vary the volume from 0 (silence)
to 99 (maximum volume), where each step
is equivalent to 0.5dB.
To change the volume
•Rotate the VOLUME control on the front panel, or
press the + or - buttons on the remote control.
To mute the sound
•Press the MUTE button on the remote control or
shortly press the standby button on the front panel.
To restore the sound to its original volume
•Press the MUTE button again.
The sound is also restored to its original volume if you
increase or decrease the volume.
Changing levels
You can independently change the balance, center level,
side levels, rear levels, and subwoofer level to alter the
balance of sound in your surround system. Changing the
balance alters the level of both the left and right main
loudspeakers to shift the position of the stereo image,
keeping the overall level of the sound the same. The other
adjustments change the level of the corresponding
speaker(s) without affecting the remaining speakers in the
surround system.
To change a level
•Press the button on the front panel, or the
BAL/ST button on the remote control, until the
display shows the current value of the level you want
to change.
For example:
OPERATING THE SP31
This chapter explains in details how to operate the
SP31 Multi-Channel Processor, using either the
front panel controls or the direct remote control
commands.
•Use the VOLUME control on the front panel, or the
or buttons on the remote control, to adjust the
value of the level.
After a short delay the display will revert to volume.
The levels are selected in the sequence shown in the
