Programmable Input Sensitivity
You may find an audible difference in level when switching from one input to
another due to the differing outputs of your source components. The unique
calibration memory of the Pre vs2 can be programmed to match the sensitivity
of all inputs with reference to the CD input. To program an offset:
1. Select CD input and set the volume control to a comfortable listening
level.
2. Select the desired input and hold the input key down. The volume
display switches to show input offset.
3. Adjust the level to the same audible volume as the CD player. The
display will read the offset applied.
4. Press the input key again to store this setting.
Repeat Steps 2 - 4 for each input to set the appropriate sensitivity level.
Fig. 4 shows settings for Input Sensitivity levels set -2 dB, 0dB and +2dB
relative to the CD input respectively.
