How to use this manual
4
This manual is divided into four sections: Preparations, Operations, Remote Control, and Additional Information.
Preparations
Shows you how to connect your audio and video components to the receiver and prepare the surround processor. We will guide you to make setting up your system as easy as possible. However, since this receiver works with all of your audio and video compo­nents, connecting the system can be fairly complex.
Preparations
Operations
Shows you how to operate the various functions available from the receiver.
Remote Control
Shows you how to operate other components using the remote control, as well as a detailed explanation of all remote control operations. Once you have registered your components with the proper setup codes, you’ll be able to operate both this receiver and your other AV components (TV, VCR, DVD player, LD player, CD player, etc.) using the remote control supplied with this receiver.
Additional Information
Shows you additional information such as “In case of difficulty” (troubleshoot­ing) and “Specifications”.
Special features
True home theater sound
This receiver incorporates a wide variety of surround modes to bring you maximum enjoyment from your video software. Select a surround mode according to your equipment or the software you are going to play and enjoy!
Home THX Cinema
THX Select incorporates a complex multichannel digital audio program materials such as Dolby Digital, PRO LOGIC & DTS which enables multichannel decoding.
This system features Re-equalization (Re-EQ), Timbre Matching, Adaptive Decorrelation, Bass Peak Level Manager and Loudspeaker Position Time Synchronization, which reproduces similar cinematic effects in the home environment.
Dolby Digital
The DOLBY DIGITAL mode lets you enjoy full digital surround from software processed in the Dolby Digital format. Dolby Digital provides up to 5.1 channels of independent digital audio for better sound quality and more powerful presence than conventional Dolby Surround.
Dolby Pro Logic II
DOLBY PRO LOGIC II, whilst totally compatible with its predecessor PRO LOGIC, provides greater advantage in surround sound. It allows the users to enjoy the conventional stereo or Dolby Surround with a convincing “5.1 like” presentation. PRO LOGIC II offers special features for controlling the overall spatial, dimensionality, and frontal sound field imaging. PRO LOGIC II produces an impressive surround sound from video software marked from music CD. When listening to music, you will be able to enjoy the experience of sheer STEREO surround sound.
and three-dimensional space

Dolby 3 Stereo
This surround system reproduces theater-like surround sound from video software marked
The 3 STEREO mode will redirect the Surround signal to the front left and right speakers when only the front and center speakers are used.
.
DTS
DTS (Digital Theater System) is a 5.1 channel digital audio format that provides five full-spectrum channels and one low-frequency (subwoofer) channel for unprecedented clarity, optimum channel separation and a (wide) dynamic range.
In the DTS mode, the 5.1 channel digital input from a DTS CD, LD or DVD disc (carrying the “DTS” marking) can be played in Digital Surround.
Important: When a DTS disc is played on a CD, LD or DVD player, noise may be output
from the analog output. It is recommended that you connect the digital output of the player to the digital input of this unit.
Multi channel music (SRS Circle Surround )
SRS Circle surround enables you to listen to multi channel sound from the stereo source. We assume you have already enjoyed listening to Dolby digital sound/DTS multi channel sound with your multi speakers. Now, this time try listening to the stereo source (ex. Audio CD) using your multi speakers. You may discover a new type of “stereo” sound through SRS Circle Surround.
DSP surround modes
The DSP (Digital Signal Processor) used for this receiver incorporates a variety of high quality adjustable sound fields, like “ARENA”, “JAZZ CLUB”, “THEATER”, “STADIUM” and “DISCO”. It is compatible with almost any kind of program source.
DVD 6-channel input
If you own a DVD player equipped with 6-channel output, this receiver allows you to obtain the full surround sound impact of DVD source material featuring multi-channel encoding. Since the source signals are digital and each channel is input independently, the resulting ambience is far superior to what can be achieved with conventional surround sound systems.
Universal IR (InfraRed) remote signal
In addition to the basic receiver, the remote control supplied with this receiver can also operate almost all of your remote controllable audio and video components. Just follow the simple setup procedure to register the components you have connected.

Setting up the system
Make connections as shown on the following pages. When connecting the related system components, be sure
8
to also refer to the instruction manuals supplied with the components you are connecting. Do not connect the power cord to a wall outlet until all connections are completed.
DTS disclaimer clause
DTS Digital Surround™ is a discrete 5.1 channel digital audio format available on CD, LD, and DVD software which consequently cannot be
Preparations
decoded and played back inside most CD, LD, or DVD players. For this reason, when DTS-encoded software is played back through the analog outputs of the CD, LD, or DVD player, excessive noise will be exhibited. To avoid possible damage to the audio system, proper precautions should taken by the consumer if the analog outputs are connected directly to an amplification system. To enjoy DTS Digital Surround™ playback, an external 5.1 channel DTS Digital Surround™ decoder system must be connected to the digital output (S/P DIF, AES/EBU, or TosLink) of the CD, LD or DVD player.
Notes
1. Be sure to insert all connection cords securely. If their connections are imperfect, the sound may not be produced or noise may interfere.
2. Be sure to remove the power cord from the AC outlet before plugging or unplugging any connection cords. Plugging/unplugging connection cords without disconnecting the power cord can cause malfunctions and may damage the unit.
3. Do not connect power cords from components which power consump­tion is larger than what is indicated on the AC outlet at the rear of this unit.
Analog connections
Audio connections are made using RCA pin cords. These cables transfer stereo audio signal in an “analog” form. This means the audio signal corresponds to the actual audio of two channels. These cables usually have 2 plugs on each end, one red for the right channel and one white for the left channel. These cables are usually packaged with the source unit, or are available at your local electronics retailer.
Microcomputer malfunction
If operation is not possible or an erroneous display appears, even though all connections have been made properly, reset the microcomputer referring to “In case of difficulty”. o
Input mode settings
CD/DVD, DVD/6ch, VIDEO2 and VIDEO3 inputs each include jacks for digital audio input and analog audio input. You must select beforehand which type of input is to be used for each connected component.
The initial factory settings for audio signal playback (CD/DVD, DVD/6ch) and (VIDEO2, VIDEO3) are digital and analog respec­tively.
To use the analog audio input for playback instead (if, for example, you have connected a VCR to the VIDEO2 or VIDEO3 input), you must set the input mode for the corresponding input to the analog mode. After completing connections and turning on the receiver, follow the steps below.
INPUT SELECTOR
INPUT MODE
1 Use the INPUT SELECTOR knob to select CD/DVD, DVD/6ch,
VIDEO2, or VIDEO3.
2 Press the INPUT MODE key.
Each press switches the setting as follows:
In DTS play mode
1 D-AUTO (digital input, auto sound) 2 D-MANUAL (digital input, manual sound)
In DVD/6ch play mode
1 D-AUTO (digital input, auto sound) 2 D-MANUAL (digital input, manual sound) 3 6ch INPT (DVD/6ch input) 4 ANALOG (analog input, manual sound)
In modes other than DTS or DVD/6ch play mode
1 D-AUTO (digital input, auto sound) 2 D-MANUAL (digital input, manual sound) 3 ANALOG (analog input, manual sound)
CAUTION
Be sure to adhere to the followings, or proper ventilation will be blocked causing damage or fire hazard.
• Do not place any objects impairing heat radiation onto the top of the unit.
• Leave a space around the unit (from the largest outside dimension including projection) equal or greater than, shown below.
Top panel : 50 cm Side panel : 10 cm Back panel : 10 cm
Digital input:
Select this setting to play digital signals from a DVD, CD, or LD player.
Analog input:
Select this setting to play analog signals from a cassette deck, VCR, or turntable.
Auto sound:
In the auto sound mode (AUTO SOUND indicator lights), the receiver selects the listening mode automatically during playback to match the type of input signal (Dolby Digital, PCM, DTS ) and the speaker setting. The initial factory setting is auto sound on. To keep the receiver set to the currently selected listening mode, use the INPUT MODE key to select “D-MANUAL” (manual sound). However, even when this setting is selected, there may be cases in which the listening mode is selected automatically to match a Dolby Digital source signal depending on the combination of listening mode and source signal. If the INPUT MODE key is pressed quickly, sound may not be produced.

Speaker placement
Center speaker
Front speaker
Surround speaker
Front speakers : Place to the front left and right of the listening position. Front speakers are required for all surround modes. Center speaker : Place front and center. This speaker stabilizes the sound image and helps recreate sound motion. Be sure to connect a center speaker when using the Dolby 3 Stereo mode. Surround speakers : Place to the direct left and right, or slightly behind, the listening position at even heights, approximately 1 meter above the ears of the listeners. These speakers recreate sound motion and atmosphere. Required for surround playback. Subwoofer : Reproduces powerful deep bass sounds.
• Although the ideal surround system consists of all the speakers listed above, if you don't have a center speaker or a subwoofer, you can divide those signals between the available speakers in the speaker settings steps to obtain the best possible surround reproduction from the speakers you have available. ¡

Connection of banana plugs
1 Secure.
• Sound will not be heard if the speaker terminal is not fully secured.
• Never short circuit the + and – speaker cords.
• If the left and right speakers are connected inversely or the speaker cords are connected with reversed polarity, the sound will be unnatu­ral with ambiguous acoustic imaging. Be sure to connect the speak­ers correctly.
2 Insert.
Speaker impedance
After confirming the speaker impedance indications printed on the rear panel of the receiver, connect speakers with matching impedance ratings. Using speakers with a rated impedance other than that indi­cated on the rear panel of the receiver could result in malfunctions or damage to the speakers or receiver.
