[. . . ] This is because it also has the ability to control functions other than volume. Other functions include, BASS, TREBLE, BALANCE, etc. Normally the encoder knob will control volume. Volume can also be adjusted using the remote control or a keypad. The volume can be adjusted up or down. CHOOSING A SOURCE The Reference 5 S2 has the ability to select any of the eight possible source inputs. The names of the sources are default labeled for V1, V2, TV, DVD, CD, FM, AM and TAPE. These labels can be adjusted and changed using either the BKcSuite setup software or the Reference 5 S2 front panel. Even though the inputs are specifically labeled for source names, it does not matter what source is connected to each input. The label (name) of the input can be changed (See page 13 for label change procedure). A source can be selected from the remote control or a keypad if it is connected. A source can also be selected from the front panel using the source button. The source button will step through each of the source inputs. If a recording device (such as a tape recorder) will be used to record audio material, it should be connected to the TAPE OUT RCA connectors. The TAPE OUT will output only the audio source that the user has been selected to listen to. This way an analog audio "tape" recording can be made of any device connected to the Reference 5 S2. ADJUSTING BALANCE The audio balance can be adjusted left to right or visa versa using the BAL (L) or BAL (R) on the remote control. The balance adjustment will adjust the gain per each side (left or right) of the stereo output. 10 UNIT OPERATION ADJUSTING BASS, TREBLE AND LOUDNESS Bass, treble and loudness can be adjusted using the remote control supplied or the front panel. To adjust the level using the front panel, press the LEVEL button to cycle through the selections. BASS increases or decreases the low frequency content in 2 dB increments with a range of +/- 12 dB. Treble increases or decreases the high frequency content in 2 dB increments with a range of +/- 12 dB. Loudness may be used to further shape the audio signal for increased clarity and intelligibility at low listening levels. When the desired selection is displayed, rotate the encoder right or left to adjust the level up or down. The loudness can be adjusted using either the remote control or the front panel button. TUNER OPERATION All TUNER operations require the Preamplifier Tuner's source be set to TUNER. Manual Tuning - press TUNE + or TUNE - on the remote control to tune the frequency UP or DOWN in single 10 kHz steps for AM or 200 kHz steps for FM.
