ADJUSTING CHANNEL LEVELS ‘ON THE FLY’You can make changes to the relative levels of center, surround andsubwoofer outputs without having to go into the ‘Speaker Levels’ menu.This is very convenient in circumstances like increasing (or tone down)a film’s dialog level by raising (lowering) the center channel or reducingexcessive deep bass (or enhance deep bass) by lowering (raising) thesubwoofer level.Use the HTR 8’s ’SURR,’ ‘CENT’ and ‘SUB’ keys for direct-access leveladjustment of these channels over a range of ±6 dB.The surround back channels (if any) adjust in lockstep with the surroundchannels.NOTELevel settings adjusted ‘On the Fly’ are added or subtracted to the setuplevels established at the T 187 level-calibration routine as invoked bythe HTR 8 ‘Test’ key. However, selecting any Preset will revert the channellevels to those stored in the preset. It will also take T 187 off the levels setvia Audyssey Auto Calibration.ZONE SETUPThe Zone feature allows one to simultaneously experience in differentzones of the house multiple sound sources from all enabled Sources as wellas from Front Input, Media Player and Tuner.The T 187 has three configurable Zones – Zone 2, Zone 3 and Zone 4.

When set to ‘Variable’and while at the ‘Zone Controls’ menu OSD, the Zone 2 Volume level canbe adjusted using the HTR 8’s [D/F] or the corresponding front panelnavigation buttons or directly via ZR 7’s [VOL d/f].On the other hand, if Volume is set to ‘Fixed,’ the Zone 2 Volume is set toa preset dB level and thereafter the Zone’s volume can be varied via thevolume control of the separate amplifier it is fed into.MODEZone 3 and Zone 4 can be configured into two modes - Record Out andZone (Audio Only).
