Introduction
Thank you for choosing Harman Kardon!With the purchase of a Harman Kardon AVR 2000 you are about to begin many years of listening enjoyment. The AVR 2000 has been custom designed to provide all the excitement and detail of movie sound tracks and every nuance of musical selections. [. . . ] Note that the Night mode is only available when the Dolby Digital surround mode is selected. on the front or 4 on the remote and select an input that is associated with a digital input and the Dolby Digital surround mode. When the button is pressed, the words D-RANGE will appear in the Main Information Display X. Press the //¤ buttons C within three seconds to select the desired setting: OFF: When OFF is shown in the display, the Night mode will not function. MID: When MID is shown in the display, a mild compression will be applied. MA X: When MAX is shown in the display, a more severe compression algorithm will be applied. When you want to use the Night mode feature, we recommend that you select the MID setting as a starting point and change to the MAX setting later, if desired. When any Night mode is selected, the NIGHT Mode Indicator N will illuminate. To confirm the selection press the Set button E Ó or wait for some seconds until the display returns to the normal mode. Output Level Adjustment Output level adjustment is a key part of the configuration process for any surround sound product. It is particularly important for a Dolby Digital receiver such as the AVR 2000, as correct outputs will ensure that you hear sound tracks with the proper directionality and intensity. NOTE: Listeners are often confused about the operation of the surround channels. While some assume that sound should always be coming from each speaker, most of the time there will be little or no sound in the surround channels. This is because they are only used when a movie director or sound mixer specifically places sound there to create ambiance, a special effect or to continue action from the front of the room to the rear. When the output levels are properly set it is normal for surround speakers to operate only occasionally. Artificially increasing the volume to the rear speakers may destroy the illusion of an enveloping sound field that duplicates the way you hear sound in a movie theater or concert hall. IMPORTANT NOTE: The output level can be adjusted for each digital and analog surround mode separately. This allows you to compensate for level differences between speakers, that may also vary with the surround mode selected, or to increase or decrease the level of certain speakers intentionally, depending on the surround mode selected. Before beginning the output level adjustment process, make certain that all speaker connections have been properly made. Finally, make certain that the Balance Control & is set to the center "12 o'clock" position. For accurate calibration, it is a good idea to make these adjustments while seated in your favorite listening position. As the adjustment must be made for each surround mode, it is best to select any input associated with Dolby Pro Logic, make the adjustment for that surround mode, then step through all inputs you´re using (and thus through all surround modes associated with the inputs) and repeat the adjustment when any surround mode appears that has not yet been adjusted. [. . . ] NOTE: Before programming the remote for Volume, Channel or Transport Punch-Through, make certain that any programming needed for the specific TV, CD, DVD, Cable or Satellite Receivers has been completed.
Resetting the Remote Memory
As you add components to your home-theater system, occasionally you may wish to totally reprogram the remote control without the confusion of any commands, macros or "Punch-Through" programming that you may have done. To do this, it is possible to reset the remote to the original factory defaults and command codes by following these steps. Note, however, that once the remote is reset, all commands or codes that you have entered will be erased and will need to be reentered: 1. Press any of the Input Selector buttons 4 and the "O" button G at the same time until the Program Indicator 2 begins to flash amber. [. . . ]
