This menu introduces a new feature: five preset tone/channel balance memories. (The ATP8500 presets

were limited to treble and bass controls only.) Any of these memories can be stored as a preset for any

source device connected to the ATP8500.1. For example, you could have preset 2 come up automatically

whenever you switch to the DVD player input. You can also select any preset at any time through the ATP-

8500.1's onscreen menu system.

The presets offer +/-12 dB adjustment of treble and bass, and for the levels of the center channel, surround

channels, and subwoofer.

The possibilities are endless, but one to start with would be a "Night" preset, for listening late at night when

others are sleeping. To create this preset, increase the levels of the center and surround channels by 3 dB or

so, to make the dialogue and surround effects clearer when the system is turned down. Now decrease the

subwoofer level by 6 dB or so, to minimize the possibility that loud bass in a movie soundtrack will disturb

others.

To create a preset, first select the preset number by using the up/down buttons on the front panel or the

remote to move the cursor to this line, then use the large wheel or the left/right buttons on the remote to

select the preset number. Now adjust the various parameters in the same fashion. Be sure to select Exit at

the bottom of the menu so that your settings are saved.

Speaker Setup

This menu now incorporates three submenus: Level Setup, Distance, and Size.

Level Setup

Only minor changes have been made to this menu. Right back and left back speaker level adjustment have

been added, and LFE level adjustment has been moved to the Audio Setup menu. Also, you need not

activate the channel level test tone through the Test Signal on/off menu item found in the ATP8500; with

the ATP8500.1, the test tone is activated whenever you move the cursor to a particular channel.
