CAUTIONS ON HANDLING

FEATURES

• Switching the input function when input jacks are not

connected

A clicking noise may be produced if the input function is switched when nothing is connected to the input jacks. If this happens, either turn down the MASTER VOLUME control or connect components to the input jacks.

• Muting of PRE OUT jack, HEADPHONE jack and SPEAKER

terminals

The PRE OUT jack, HEADPHONE jack and SPEAKER terminals include a muting circuit. Because of this, the output signals are greatly reduced for several seconds after the power operation switch is turned on or input function, surround mode or any other set-up is changed.

If the volume is turned up during this time, the output will be very high after the muting circuit stops functioning. Always wait until the muting circuit turns off before adjusting the volume.

• Whenever the power operation switch is in the STANDBY

state, the apparatus is still connected on some AC line voltages. Please be sure to unplug the cord when you leave home for, say, a vacation.

1. Dolby Digital EX decoder system

Dolby Digital EX is a 6.1-channel surround format proposed by Dolby Laboratories that allows users to enjoy in their homes the “DOLBY DIGITAL SURROUND EX” audio format jointly developed by Dolby Laboratories and Lucas Films and first used for the movie “Star Wars Episode 1 – Phantom Menace”. The 6.1 channels of sound, including surround back channels, provide improved sound positioning and expression of space.

2. DTS-ES Extended Surround and DTS Neo:6

The AVR-1604/684 is compatible with DTS-ES Extended Surround, a new multi-channel format developed by Digital Theater Systems Inc. The AVR-1604/684 is also compatible with DTS Neo:6, a surround mode allowing 6.1-channel playback of regular stereo sources.

3. Dolby Pro Logic II decoder

Dolby Pro Logic II is a new format for playing multichannel audio signals that offers improvements over conventional Dolby Pro Logic. It can be used to decode not only sources recorded in Dolby Surround but also regular stereo sources into five channels (front left/right, center and surround left/right). In addition, various parameters can be set according to the type of source and the contents, so you can adjust the sound field with greater precision.

4. Dolby Digital decoder

Using advanced digital processing algorithms, Dolby Digital provides up to 5.1 channels of wide-range, high fidelity surround sound. Dolby Digital is the default digital audio delivery system for DVD and North American DTV.

5. DTS (Digital Theater Systems)

DTS provides up to 5.1 channels of wide-range, high fidelity surround sound, from sources such as laser disc, DVD and specially-encoded music discs.

6. Auto Surround Mode

This function stores the surround mode last used for an input signal in the memory and automatically sets that surround mode the next time that signal is input.

7. 6CH EXT. IN jacks

This unit is equipped with 6CH EXT. IN jacks for use with audio formats of the future.

8. High performance DSP simulates 7 sound fields

Playback is possible in 7 surround modes: 5/6-channel Stereo, Mono Movie, Rock Arena, Jazz Club, Video Game, Matrix and Virtual. You can enjoy a variety of sound effects for different movie scenes and program sources even with stereo sources not in Dolby Surround.

9. Personal Memory Plus function

Personal Memory Plus is an advanced version of Personal Memory. With Personal Memory Plus, the set automatically memorizes the surround mode, channel volume, surround parameters, etc., for each of the separate input sources.

CAUTIONS ON INSTALLATION

Noise or disturbance of the picture may be generated if this unit or any other electronic equipment using microprocessors is used near a tuner or TV. If this happens, take the following steps:

• Install this unit as far as possible from the tuner or TV.

• Set the antenna wires from the tuner or TV away from this unit’s power cord and input/output connection cords.

• Noise or disturbance tends to occur particularly when using indoor antennas or 300 Ω/ohms feeder wires. We recommend using

outdoor antennas and 75 Ω/ohms coaxial cables.

For heat dispersal, leave at least 0.3 ft (10 cm) of space between the top, back and sides of this unit and the wall or other components.

This reminder is provided to call the CATV system installer’s attention to Article 820-40 of the NEC which provides guidelines for proper grounding and, in particular, specifies that the cable ground shall be connected to the grounding system of the building, as close to the point of cable entry as practical.

Notes:

• Do not connect two FM antennas simultaneously.

• Even if an external AM antenna is used, do not disconnect

the AM loop antenna.

• Make sure AM loop antenna lead terminals do not touch metal parts of the panel.

ENGLISH

Speaker system connections

• Connect the speaker terminals with the speakers making sure that like polarities are matched (< with <, > with >). Mismatching of polarities will result in weak central sound, unclear orientation of the various instruments, and the sense of direction of the stereo being impaired.

• When making connections, take care that none of the individual conductors of the speaker cord come in contact with adjacent terminals, with other speaker cord conductors, or with the rear panel.

Speaker Impedance

• When speaker systems A and B are use separately, speakers with an impedance of 6 to 16 Ω/ohms can be connected for use as front speakers.

• Be careful when using two pairs of front speakers (A + B) at the same time, since use of speakers with an impedance of 12 to 16 Ω/ohms.

• Speakers with an impedance of 6 to 16 Ω/ohms can be connected for use as center and surround and surround back speakers.

• The protector circuit may be activated if the set is played for long periods of time at high volumes when speakers with an impedance lower than the specified impedance are connected.

NOTE:

NEVER touch the speaker terminals when the power is on. Doing so could result in electric shocks.

Connecting the speaker cords

1. Loosen by turning counterclockwise.

2. Insert the cord. 3. Tighten by turning clockwise.

Connecting banana plugs

Protector circuit

• This unit is equipped with a high-speed protection circuit. The purpose of this circuit is to protect the speakers under circumstances such as when the output of the power amplifier is inadvertently short-circuited and a large current flows, when the temperature surrounding the unit becomes unusually high, or when the unit is used at high output over a long period which results in an extreme temperature rise. When the protection circuit is activated, the speaker output is cut off and the power supply indicator LED flashes. Should this occur , please follow these steps: be sure to switch off the power of this unit, check whether there are any faults with the wiring of the speaker cables or input cables, and wait for the unit to cool down if it is very hot. Improve the ventilation condition around the unit and switch the power back on. If the protection circuit is activated again even though there are no problems with the wiring or the ventilation around the unit, switch off the power and contact a DENON service center.

Note on speaker impedance

• The protector circuit may be activated if the set is played for long periods of time at high volumes when speakers with an impedance lower than the specified impedance (for example speakers with an impedance of lower than 4 Ω/ohms) are connected. If the protector circuit is activated, the speaker output is cut off. Turn off the set’s power, wait for the set to cool down, improve the ventilation around the set, then turn the power back on.

NOTES: — Assignment of low frequency signal range —

• The signals produced from the subwoofer channel are LFE signals (during playback of Dolby Digital or DTS signals) and the low frequency signal range of channels set to “SMALL” in the setup. The low frequency signal range of channels set to “LARGE” are produced from those channels.

— Crossover Frequency —

• When “Subwoofer” is set to “Yes” at the “Speaker Configuration Setting”, set the frequency (Hz) below which the bass sound of the various speakers is to be output from the subwoofer (the crossover frequency).

• For speakers set to “Small”, sound with a frequency below the crossover frequency is cut, and the cut bass sound is output from the subwoofer instead. NOTE: For ordinary speaker systems, we recommend setting the crossover frequency to 80 Hz. When using small speakers, however,

setting the crossover frequency to a high frequency may improve frequency response for frequencies near the crossover frequency.

— Subwoofer mode —

• The subwoofer mode setting is only valid when “LARGE” is set for the front speakers and “YES” is set for the subwoofer in the “Speaker Configuration” settings (see pages 18, 19). If “SMALL” is set for the front speakers or “NO” is set for the subwoofer, the subwoofer mode setting does not affect playback of low frequency signal range.

• When the “+MAIN” playback mode is selected, the low frequency signal range of channels set to “LARGE” are produced simultaneously from those channels and the subwoofer channel. In this playback mode, the low frequency range expand more uniformly through the room, but depending on the size and shape of the room, interference may result in a decrease of the actual volume of the low frequency range.

• When the “NORM” playback mode is selected, the low frequency signal range of channels set to “LARGE” are only produced from those channels. In this playback mode there tends to be little interference of the low frequency range in the room.

• Try playing the music or movie source and select the playback mode providing the stronger low frequency range sound.
