You can enter a name for each input source so that when the
source is selected the name of that source is displayed in the
front display of the TX-DS989 (see “2-7. Character Input sub-
menu” on page 41).

videos, LDs, DVDs, and the like. The TX-DS989 has the latest in
state-of-the-art features to play back today’s acoustic technologies
with the utmost in fidelity and power. From a two-speaker system
to a seven-speaker system, you are assured a sound space that you

source you want.

After you have selected the input source, simply turn on the

the volume, turn the dial to the left.
