AVR300 menu

Is the only way to get the setup menu on screen using composite leads ,Sevenoaks set up my system but didn't turn my sub on for music and I want to try it?

Hi,

On the rear of the AVR300 there is a socket marked video monitor out - I used to use that before component leads and it works well enough for getting at the menus.

You can use composite, s-video or component to get the on screen display up on the screen.

You can also navigate the menu from the display on the front of the AVR300, although you really need to know your way around the menu to be able to do this successfully.

Certainly works via my NTL box. Just need to configure the sub/ speaker in the settings pages.
