Input Setup and Selection
Before calibrating your Model 950 and adjusting loudspeaker setup and con-
figuration, you should first set up the sources connected to it. You will make 
your selections using the Input Configuration menu, shown below.

  RETURN TO MAIN MENU
Because of the extensive options available for each input source, we strongly 
recommend you use the chart on page 18 to record the settings for each input 
and component. Later, if you re-configure your system, this chart will help 
avoid confusion.
To configure an input:
1.
  Press the MENU button to enter the Main Menu.
The Main Menu appears on the Front Panel Display and the OSD. The 
cursor on the OSD should be pointing to the Input Configuration menu 
and 
INPUT CONFIG
 appears on the Front Panel Display.
2.  Press SELECT to enter the Input Configuration menu.
The Input Configuration menu appears on the Front Panel Display and 
the OSD (see figure 1).  The selected menu item should be 
SOURCE
.
3.  Use the < and > buttons to select which particular Source you wish 
to configure. 
The Source choices appear as follows as you scroll through them:
DVDVIDEO1VIDEO2VIDEO3VCRTUNERCD
TAPEAUX1AUX 2
You can scroll in either direction using the < and > buttons .
4.  Press the   button once to select the Input menu. 
5.  Use the < and > buttons to select an Input for that source.
The input choices appear as follows as you scroll through them:
ANALOGOPTICAL1OPTICAL2OPTICAL3
OPTICAL4COAXIAL1COAXIAL2
You can scroll in either direction using the < and > buttons .
If you connected the source to the Analog inputs, select: ANALOG.
If you connected the source to one of the Optical Digital inputs, select 
the appropriate one by choosing: OPTICAL 1, 2, 3, or 4.
If you connected the source to one of the Coaxial Digital inputs, select 
the appropriate one by choosing: COAXIAL 1 or 2.
NOTE: Always connect and configure the digital input source 
option if one is available from the specific component, as this will 
provide maximum performance and best sound quality. 
Remember that you can always return to any menu to change your 
selection, should that be required.
6.  Press the   button once to select the Mode menu. 
7.  Use the < and > buttons to select a Mode for that source.
The available surround modes appear as follows as you scroll through 
them:
PLII-CPLII-MDOLBY  PL7  STEREO
5  STEREOSTEREOPLIIC+CRPLIIM+CR
NEO:6-CNEO:6-MDOLBY  DDOLBY  EX
DTSDTS-ES
You can scroll in either direction using the < and > buttons .
You should choose a surround mode to be the default for this source. 
Please refer to the table on page 12 for a detailed listing of all options. 
Remember that all available mode options can be selected for a Digital 
input source, but certain modes will not be available through the Analog 
input for that source.
Selecting the default mode will not exclude other modes of surround 
decoding. In fact, certain digital signals (Dolby Digital, DTS, some Dolby 
Digital EX, and others) contain a special digital “flag” that tells the 950 
to switch to that surround mode. When the Model 950 receives one of 
these bitstreams it will switch to that mode of operation. Additionally, 
you can manually cycle through the available modes while the source 
is playing to choose the one you wish to use.
8.  Press the   button once to select the Treble menu. 
9.  Use the < and > buttons to adjust the Treble.
The amount of Treble boost can be adjusted ±6dB in 2dB increments. 
10. Press the   button once to select the Bass menu. 
11. Use the < and > buttons to adjust the Bass.
The amount of Bass boost can be adjusted ±6dB in 2dB increments. 
NOTE: Any tone control setting you make in this mode are 
global, and will affect all input sources and all output channels. 
They will remain in effect until you go back into the setup menu 
and change them or change them using the TONE button on the 
remote control.
12. Press the   button to select the Night menu. 
NOTE: This option only operates with a Dolby Digital or Dolby 
Digital EX source and one of these modes is active.
This option allows you to set the amount of Dynamic Range Compression 
used when the Model 950 is placed into the NIGHT mode. This mode can 
also be selected by pressing the NIGHT button on the remote control.
There are two types of automatic compression control built into the 
Dolby Digital process. Compression makes the loud parts softer and the 
soft parts louder to reduce the difference between the two.
