12. Play a source, such as a DVD, 

and bring up the volume to suit 
your taste. Make sure the video 
can be seen in the TV monitor.

13. Stop or pause the source.

The TGR-401 now needs to be set-

up correctly to suit your speakers and 
system. This is done using the TGR-
401 on screen display (OSD) menus. 
It can be done either automatically or 
manually, as can the EQ adjustment. 
This needs to be done when you use 
your system for the  rst time, or if you 
change anything such as the speak-
ers or their position. 

Automatic Setup

The TGR-401 comes with a mea-

surement microphone that plugs into 
the front panel microphone input.

The automatic setup procedure 

uses the microphone to measure and 
evaluate your system. After the mea-
surements are complete, the levels, 
crossover frequency, and delay times 
of the speakers are automatically 
adjusted for the best performance.

Any problems with the speakers 

are indicated, for example, it will let 
you know if there is low output from a 
speaker, or if the polarity is reversed.

Details of the auto-setup are 

shown on page 40. Alternatively, you 
can use the manual procedure to set 
up your system.

8.  Press the remote MAIN button 

a few times to make sure you 
are on the Main Page 1 Menu in 
the remote's display.

9.  Set the remote to operate the 

TGR-401 by pressing the TG401 
button.

We hope that the following details 

will help you get started using your 
TGR-401.

1.  Take care to read and follow the 

safety instructions on pages 2-3. 
Also make sure that you read the 
notes and details throughout the 
manual, especially notes marked 
with a warning triangle (

).

2.  Add four new AAA batteries to the 

remote control.

3.  Connect your source equipment 

and speakers to the TGR-401.

  Make sure that all of your equip-

ment remains unplugged from the 
AC mains until you have made all 
the connections.

4.  In your DVD player's Audio setup 

menu, set the digital output to  
BITSTREAM. If this is not set 
correctly, the TGR-401 cannot 
decode the digital information for 
5.1 surround sound playback. 

5.  The TGR-401's bass manage-

ment system allows the bass from 
each speaker to be redirected to 
a subwoofer. Larger speakers can 
play the full frequency range, and 
smaller speakers such as satellite 
types can have their bass redi-
rected. See page 38 for details.

 

Make a note of which speak-
ers you would like to play the 
full frequency range (Large) and 
those which will have their bass 
redirected. Also make a note of 
the approximate distance of each 
speaker from your listening posi-
tion.

6.  The surround back speaker 

outputs can be used for powering 
surround back, or Zone 2 speak-
ers. See page 22

7.  Turn on the TGR-401, and then 

turn on your TV and source equip-
ment.

10.  The VOL and MUTE buttons will 

control the TGR-401 no mat-
ter which source component the 
remote is set to operate. The 
PUNCH command allows you to 
change this if required (see page 
28).

11. Turn down the TGR-401 volume 

and use the remote or front panel 
to select a video source as fol-
lows: If you have followed step 9,
