• The
+
and
–
buttons change the current character through the
available characters. They include all upper and lower case letters
of the alphabet, the numbers 0-9, and a variety of punctuation.
When done, your main display might look like this (note the
change in the top right button):
Touching the audio button gives you control over a wide variety of settings
which affect how the audio from this source will be handled.
• offset is used to ensure that all analog sources are played back at
comparable levels. There can be significant differences in output
levels among analog sources (this is not a problem with digital
sources); this can lead to unexpected changes in volume when
switching among them. The SSP-300 provides an adjustment
range of from -5 to +10 dB.
• delay establishes an overall delay (added to all channels) for the
audio so as to match it more closely with a delayed video signal.
This addresses the “lip sync” problems often found with modern
digital televisions, whose sophisticated video processing introduces
a delay in the picture you see. If you see a consistent problem in
this regard, this is the place to address it. If you see a problem
that seems specific to a particular disc, it is better addressed in
the Home menu (home/controls/system trims/audio delay). The
SSP-300 will automatically revert to this default setting when you
change inputs, or if you touch the reset trims button.
• favorite processing determines what surround mode the SSP-300
will use by default when it receives either a two channel (“stereo”)
or a multichannel signal from this source. For example, you
may want to use Dolby Pro Logic II Music as the default mode
for stereo signals from your CD player, while preferring plain
two-channel reproduction for the signal from your FM tuner.
Touching either the 2-channel or the multichannel buttons will
bring up a list of the available surround processing modes for the
chosen signal type, from which you may select your preferred
default setting for this source.
• the digital button takes you to a screen where you can specify
which digital connection you wish to use with this source. The
SSP-300 has four coaxial digital inputs, two optical Toslink™
inputs, and one balanced digital AES/EBU input, all of which are
assignable to any source button you choose.
