When is my volume too loud?

A volume above 80 decibels can be harmful to hearing. When the volume exceeds 120 decibels, direct damage can even occur. The chance of hearing damage depends on the listening frequency and duration.

Can bluetooth devices of different brands be connected to each other?

Yes, bluetooth is a universal method that allows different devices equipped with bluetooth to connect to each other.

What is bluetooth?

What is HDMI?

HDMI stands for High-Definition Multimedia Interface. An HDMI cable is used to transport audio and video signals between devices.

How can I best clean my receiver?

A slightly damp cleaning cloth or soft, dust-free cloth works best to remove fingerprints. Dust in hard-to-reach places is best removed with compressed air.

Wat is Dolby Atmos?

Dolby Atmos is a technology that ensures that the sound is reflected from the ceiling to where you are listening. This makes it possible to create a 5.1 effect with only 1 speaker.

Why is the sound distorted or too quiet when playing audio through the receiver?

Connect the HDMI output of your TV or cable/satellite box to the HDMI input on the receiver. Then, connect your speakers to the receiver. Use the receiver's input selector to choose the appropriate HDMI input for your desired device. Adjust the volume levels as needed.

My remote control is not working with the receiver. What should I do?

First, make sure the batteries in the remote control are fresh and properly inserted. If that doesn't solve the issue, try pointing the remote directly at the receiver's sensor and ensure that there are no obstructions between them. Additionally, check the receiver's settings to ensure that the remote control function is enabled.

How do I calibrate the speakers for optimal audio performance?

The receiver has an automatic speaker calibration feature. Locate the "Auto MCACC" button on the receiver or remote control and press it to initiate the calibration process.
