Enjoying music or videos with the TX-DS797

Though the TX-DS797 is often used to listen to the radio, it does not

show you its true ability until it is used to play music or watch

videos, DVDs, and the like. The TX-DS797 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 can always

enjoy.

Listening with headphones

To listen with headphones, plug a pair of headphones with a standard

stereo plug into the PHONES jack on the TX-DS797 front panel.

When you connect headphones, the unit will enter STEREO mode

automatically and no sound will be heard from the speakers.

When the headphones are unplugged, the TX-DS797 returns to its

original listening mode.

When using the headphones, you can only use the Direct, Stereo, and

Mono listening modes.

If you have selected MULTI CH INPUT, you will hear sound only

from the FRONT L and R channels.

The headphone volume level can be adjusted at the Setup menu (see

page 45).

Note that the signal to the remote zone (Zone 2) will not be affected

whether or not headphones are connected.

Adjusting the bass and treble

You can adjust the bass and treble levels at the Setup menu:Audio

Adjust → Tone Control. This function only affects the front left and

right speakers, center speaker, and subwoofer. Only the bass level

can be adjusted for the subwoofer (the treble adjustment is not

effective). However, these adjustments cannot be made if the

listening mode is set to DIRECT.

Temporarily turning off the sound

To turn off the sound momentarily, such as when interrupted by a

phone call, press the MUTING button on the remote controller.

When pressed, “Muting” is displayed on the TX-DS797. Press the

MUTING button again to turn the sound back on.
