SOURCE SETUP
The audio and video settings on this page of the Setup menu can be tailored specifically and independently for each input
source.
When a different input source is selected in the Source Setup menu, all the source-specific settings for that input are
displayed. These settings are applied to the named Input only and are stored in memory and recalled each time the unit is
powered up and whenever that input is selected.
Name - The display name of the input source. You can change the name of any input to more closely match your setup.
Preset names include: TV, Media, Cable Box, Blu Ray, Game, PC, UHD, DVD, CD, AV, SAT, Turntable, Cassette, and AUX. It
is then clearer to users of your Receiver which inputs they wish to select when scrolling though.
Panel Selectable – Allows you to hide unused inputs. Hidden inputs do not appear as input choices when scrolling through
inputs. An input source can be hidden by selecting “No” in this menu. If you hid inputs and want to show them again, they can
be restored by selecting “Yes” for the individual input sources.
Lip Sync - Each input can have its own setting to add a time delay between the audio and video signals to compensate for the
sound and picture not being synchronized. This is normally required when video processing is used in the system for scaling or
de-interlacing video. The range of lip sync delay is 0 to 250 milliseconds.
The lip sync adjustment can only correct for delayed video. If the audio is late set lip sync to its minimum.
Room EQ - When the EZ Set EQ app is run and EQ filters are downloaded into the Receiver, this can be selected.
(Information only) There are no EQ filters, so cannot be selected.
EZ Set EQ calibration is applied to the current source.
EZ Set EQ calibration is not applied to the current source.
Default Surround Mode – Sets the default listening mode for this input. Choose between Stereo 2.0, Stereo 2.1, All Stereo,
and the available surround modes.
Bass and Treble –
These allow you to alter the bass and treble tone controls for all currently active speakers for each individual input. For
example, if your turntable source sounds a little bass light, you can always correct for this by selecting the source in the
Source Setup menu and add 2 or 3dB to the Bass control. Then, whenever the Turntable input is selected, the bass is
automatically boosted for as long as that input is selected.
Dialog Enhance – A proprietary JBL audio enhancement setting to improve the intelligibility of spoken dialog for cinema
applications using a center channel. Note: if you are not using a center channel speaker, this setting will have no effect.
Direct Mode (MA310 & MA510, analog sources only) – This mode disables any digital signal processing parameters.
Pure Analog (MA710, analog sources only) – This mode bypasses all digital signal processing for a pure analog signal
path.
Level - Sets the relative level of each input source. This is adjusted manually and can help keep the various sources sounding
about the same level for any given Receiver volume control setting.
