[. . . ] 4B illustrates a setup in which a game console, DVD player, and TV set are connected to the GMX D-5. 1. Important Note: Each input demands a particular type of cable and a matching output on the source component. The optical digital input requires a Toslink fiber-optic cable. The coaxial digital input requires a coaxial cable with RCA plugs on each end. To ensure reliable operation, use a cable labeled for video or digital audio connections. The stereo analog input requires a pair of ordinary shielded audio cables with RCA plugs on each end. If you are connecting the analog inputs to a device that has a minijack output, use the supplied miniplug-to-RCA adaptor. IMPORTANT NOTE: Before You Begin Do not plug in the GMX D-5. 1 subwoofer's power cord until all other wiring is completed, and do not disassemble the system before you have unplugged the subwoofer's power cord. Be especially careful not to connect or disconnect any signal cables while power is applied. Failure to observe this caution may result in loud hums, buzzes, or pops that will at the very least be annoying and that in the extreme may damage your speakers. Unpacking Carefully remove the system components from the carton: · 1 Subwoofer · 5 Satellite speakers on pedestal bases · 1 Digital preamplifier and control module · 1 Multipin control cable with DC supply cord · 5 Speaker cables with RCA connector on one end · 1 Stereo miniplug-to-RCA-sockets adaptor · 1 AC power cord 1. Tighten FIGURE 3 FIGURE 1 FIGURE 2 Power Connections The last setup steps are the power connections (see Fig. Plug the DC supply cord into the jack labeled "Decoder Supply" on the subwoofer cabinet. · Helping you set channel balance. Because the five satellites in the GMX D-5. 1 are identical, you will usually get correct channel balance automatically. To find out, turn the test signal on and listen; it should be equally loud from each speaker. If not, you can use the CTR and SURR buttons (described below) together with the volume pads to adjust the level of the surround speakers up or down relative to the front left and right. The adjustment level trim is from -9dB to +9dB, with default settings of "0. " Note: Possible gain range settings for each channel are -9dB to +9dB and will be retained as the main volume approaches 60dB. However, new settings made at high volumes will only be allowed as the total reaches 60dB. In other words, if the main volume reads 55dB, the boost will be limited to +5dB, and if main volume is set to 60dB (maximum), no boost is available. Toggles through the three modes of the Dolby Digital dynamic compression function. Dynamic compression reduces the level difference between loud and soft sounds. This can be useful when you are having trouble hearing dialogue clearly or when you want to minimize disturbance of others by very loud sounds. Available modes are "Half, " "Full, " and "Off"; the selected mode will be indicated by the LEDs above the button.
