system trims The System Trims menu controls several parameters of the SSP-300’s operation

that may occasionally need adjustment to suit a particular recording.

level trims are provided for L/R balance, center, surround, rear

speakers, and subwoofer. As an example, you might bump up
the center channel speaker by 2-3 dB if the dialog in a particular
movie is difficult to understand.

audio delay provides an overall (“lipsync”) delay in cases where

the video signal seems to be trailing the audio by a bit. (Note that
the sensitivity of different people to this potential synchronization
problem varies widely.) You may occasionally run into a DVD
with this problem, due to inattentive mastering of the disc itself.
If you perceive this problem most of the time, you should make
the adjustment in the delay setting for that particular input, in the
System Setup menu; if it seems related to a particular disc, make
the adjustment here.

Dolby late night mode offers intelligent moderation of the

dynamic range in Dolby Digital recordings. This is especially
useful when you want to watch a movie in the evening, but are
concerned about disturbing either the neighbors or others in the
household who might prefer to be sleeping during your action
movie. This feature is specific to Dolby Digital soundtracks, and is
grayed out (not available) when listening to other formats.

reset trims allows you to reset everything to the defaults settings,

as determined by the settings found in the System Setup menu.
(Note that the defaults settings are also restored automatically
whenever you change sources.)

zone control The Zone Control menu allows you to turn the remote zone on and off, to select

the source you wish to enjoy in the remote zone, and to adjust the volume of
that source.

Touching the decrease or increase buttons will adjust the volume accordingly.
(The volume knob will not adjust the volume of the remote zone.)

The on button toggles the remote zone between active (highlighted) and inactive
(not highlighted). Finally, source selection is done through the familiar source
selection screens, by touching the source button.
