Yamaha E580 - Manual (Page 23)

PREPARATION
1. Set all volume controls—on the main amp (preamp) and effect
power amplifiers—to their MINIMUM positions.
2. Turn on the power to all system components. This unit is turned
on by pressing the POWER switch on the front panel or the POWER
key on the remote control unit.
3. Use the MASTER VOLUME control on the front panel or the
MASTER VOLUME keys on the remote control to set the master
volume to its lowest level. If you are using external power amplifiers
on any channels, any volume controls on the power amps should be
set to maximum.
4. Select your video cassette deck or video disc player (or other
Dolby Surround encoded program source) on your A/V selector,
integrated amplifier, preamplifier, or receiver.
5. Begin playback of Dolby Surround encoded program material.
6. Increase the setting of the volume control on your preamplifier,
integrated amplifier, or receiver to about the halfway point.
* Depending on the particular model of preamplifier, integrated
amplifier, or receiver you are using, a slightly different volume
setting may be necessary. If there is distortion on loud passages,
try reducing the volume control setting slightly.
7. Use the MASTER VOLUME control on the front panel or the
MASTER VOLUME keys on the remote control unit to set the master
volume to a comfortable listening level.
For optimum performance—minimum noise and maximum
dynamic range—it is desirable to set the volume control of your
preamplifier, integrated amplifier or receiver to its center position,
making any necessary adjustments to the listening level by changing
the MASTER VOLUME control setting on this unit.
