metal-film resistors to create a volume control with
crystal-clear transparency and no moving parts. The
volume control comprises 66 individual levels, each
with a step size of 1.0 dB allowing for precise
selection of the desired volume setting.
The volume level is changed by pressing the black
bar above the front-panel display. The remote
control may also be used to change the volume.
When the unit is first connected to AC power , the
volume level defaults to “11”, a relatively low
setting. After that, the current volume setting is
retained in memory when changing inputs or when
the unit is placed in “Standby”.
Mute
The mute button provides an easy way to
temporarily turn the volume of the AX-7e to “zero”.
The current volume control setting is retained in
memory and appears on the display. When the unit
is placed in “Standby”, the mute function is reset.
