controls

Touching the Controls option opens a new menu, as shown below. Th

 e 

Controls page allows you to adjust a variety of processor functions, such as 
audio levels and delays, as well as selecting listening confi gurations.

Th

  ese adjustments are temporary; when a new input is selected, the adjustments 

are deleted and replaced with the saved values. If you want to recalibrate the 
audio levels because of an equipment change, use the Speaker Setup menu, not 
the Controls menu. Similarly, use the Input Setup menu to save a permanent 

change to an audio delay or confi guration.

Th

 e System Trims menu controls several parameters of the SSP-800’s operation 

that may occasionally need adjustment to suit a particular recording. Touching 
the System Trims option opens the System Trims menu page, as shown below. 

Th

  e available adjustments are:

•  level trims - provides Left/Right Balance, Centre, Surround, Rear, 

Subwoofer, and Aux1/2 level adjustments. As an example, you might want 
to raise the level of the Centre channel speaker by 2 or 3 db if the dialog 
in a particular movie is diffi

  cult to understand. In addition to the normal 

subwoofer trims, two additional buttons (LFE 0dB, and LFE -10dB) off er 
an extra -10dB of trim. You may fi nd certain older DTS Music discs with 
the LFE channel recorded 10dB higher than normal. Th

  e LFE -10dB 

button allows you to quickly adjust for this scenario.

•  audio delay - provides an overall delay, called Lipsync, to adjust for cases 

where the timing of the video signal seems to trail the audio. You may run 
into this problem with the occasional DVD, due to inattentive mastering 
of the disc itself.  If you fi nd this problem most of the time, then adjust 
the delay setting for the input in the Setup menu. Remember that these 
are only temporary trims, so use this system trim only for the occasional 
adjustment needed for a specifi c disc.

•  Dolby late night - this mode off ers intelligent moderation of the dynamic 

range in Dolby Digital recordings. Th

  is is especially useful when you want 

to watch a movie in the evening, but are concerned about disturbing the 
neighbors or others in the household who might prefer to be sleeping during 
your action movie. Th

  is feature is specifi c to Dolby Digital soundtracks and is 

grayed out, or unavailable, when listening to other surround formats.

•  reset trims - allows you to reset the system trims back to the values 

refl ected in the Setup menu for that input. NOTE: Th
