Operating instructions

the network as described below only when you
have connected this receiver to a broadband
router without a DHCP server function. Before
you set up the network, consult with your ISP or
the network manager for the required settings.
It is advised that you also refer to the operation
manual supplied with your network component.
! In case you make changes to the network
configuration without the DHCP server
function, make the corresponding changes to
the network settings of this receiver.
IP Address
The IP address to be entered must be defined
within the following ranges. If the IP address
defined is beyond the following ranges, you
cannot play back audio files stored on compo-
nents on the network or listen to Internet radio
stations.
Class A: 10.0.0.1 to 10.255.255.254
Class B: 172.16.0.1 to 172.31.255.254
Class C: 192.168.0.1 to 192.168.255.254
Subnet Mask
In case an xDSL modem or a terminal adapter
is directly connected to this receiver, enter the
subnet mask provided by your ISP on paper. In
most cases, enter 255.255.255.0.
Default Gateway
In case a gateway (router) is connected to this
receiver, enter the corresponding IP address.
Primary DNS Server/
Secondary DNS Server
In case there is only one DNS server address
provided by your ISP on paper, enter it in the
‘Primary DNS Server’ field. In case there are
more than two DNS server addresses, enter
‘Secondary DNS Server’ in the other DNS
server address field.
Proxy Hostname/Proxy Port
This setting is required when you connect
this receiver to the Internet via a proxy server.
Enter the IP address of your proxy server in the
‘Proxy Hostname’ field. Also, enter the port
number of your proxy server in the ‘Proxy Port’
field.
1 Select ‘IP Address, Proxy’ from the
Network Setup menu.

When you select ON, the network is automati-
cally set up, and you do not need to follow Steps
3. Proceed with Step 4.
If there is no DHCP server on the network and
you select ON, this receiver will use its own
Auto IP function to determine the IP address.
! The IP address determined by the Auto IP
function is 169.254.X.X. You cannot listen to
an Internet radio station if the IP address is
set for the Auto IP function.
3 Enter the IP Address, Subnet Mask,
Default Gateway, Primary DNS Server and
Secondary DNS Server.
Press i/j to select a number and k/l to
move the cursor.
4 Select ‘OFF’ or ‘ON’ for the
Enable Proxy Server setting to deactivate
or activate the proxy server.
In case you select ‘OFF’, proceed with Step 7. In
case you select ‘ON’, on the other hand, pro-
ceed with Step 5.
5 Enter the address of your proxy server
or the domain name.
Use i/j to select a character, k/l to set the
position, and ENTER to confirm your selection.
6 Enter the port number of your proxy
server.
Use i/j to select a character, k/l to set the
position, and ENTER to confirm your selection.

Manual SP Setup menu.
2 Adjust the distance of each speaker
using k/l.
You can adjust the distance of each speaker in
0.01 m Increments.

You will return to the Manual SP Setup menu.
Note
! For best surround sound, make sure the
surround back speakers are the same
distance from the listening position.
X-Curve
Most soundtracks mixed for cinema sound too
bright when played back in large rooms. The
X-Curve setting acts as a kind of re-equalization
for home theater listening, and restores proper
tonal balance of movie soundtracks.
1 Select ‘X-Curve’ from the
Manual SP Setup menu.
2 Choose the X-Curve setting you want.
Use k/l to adjust the setting. The X-Curve
is expressed as a downwards slope in deci-
bels per octave, starting at 2 kHz. The sound
becomes less bright as the slope increases (to
a maximum of –3.0dB/oct). Use the following
guidelines to set the X-Curve according to your
room size:
Room size (m
2
)
X-Curve
(dB/oct)
–0.5 –1.0 –1.5 –2.0 –2.5 –3.0
≤36 ≤48 ≤60 ≤72 ≤300 ≤1000
! If you select OFF, the frequency curve will be
flat and the X-Curve has no effect.
