INITIAL SETUP

Before you make the first connection to your T 758, you should have the arrangement of your listening room/home theater components and furniture mapped out, at least initially. Unfortunately, a discussion of the vital questions of loudspeaker placement and listening/viewing positions is beyond our scope here.

CHOOSING A LOCATION

Choose a location that is well ventilated (with at least several inches to both sides and behind), and that will provide a clear line of sight, within 25 feet/8 meters, between the T 758’s front panel and your primary listening/viewing position - this will ensure reliable infrared remote control communications. The T 758 generates a modest amount of heat, but nothing that should trouble adjacent components. It is especially important that sufficient ventilation be provided.

DEFAULT SOURCE SETTINGS

The following table lists the default SOURCE settings. Note that the Audio input settings show both digital and analog audio input. Digital input will always take precedence over analog audio input even if both are present.

Source	Audio Input	Video Input
Source 1	HDMI 1 / Audio 1	HDMI 1
