menu. For more detailed information, see “Graphical user interface (GUI) menu” (page 76).
Fine adjusting the speaker settings

the initial volume level regardless of the recording level of 
the audio source.

Adjusting the dynamic range
The dynamic range is the difference between the 
minimum and maximum amplitude. The higher the 
dynamic range, the more accurate the sound reproduction 
for bitstream signals. You can adjust the dynamic range 
for speakers and headphones individually. Also, you can 
use the adaptive dynamic range control feature to adjust 
the dynamic range automatically in conjunction with the 
volume level.

Adjusting the audio and video synchronization
Sometimes, depending on your video source component, 
video is delayed relative to audio due to processing 
problems. In this case, you need to manually adjust the 
audio delay to keep it synchronized with the video. If you 
connect the video source component to this unit using an 
HDMI connection and your component supports the 
LIPSYNC feature, you can adjust the audio/video 
synchronization automatically.
Setup 
→ Sound → Lipsync (page 92)

In case the initial input/output assignments do not

You can also edit the input name to be displayed in the 
front panel or in the GUI screen as necessary.
