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! ™

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

DOLBY PRO LOGIC II, whilst totally compatible with its predecessor PRO LOGIC, provides greater advantages in surround sound. It allows user to enjoy the conventional stereo or Dolby Surround with a convincing “5.1 like” presentation. PRO LOGIC the overall spatial, dimensionality and frontal sound field imaging. PRO

II produces an impressive surround sound from video software

LOGIC marked When listening to music, you will be able to enjoy the experience of sheer STEREO surround sound.

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.

II offers special features for controlling

and three-dimensional space from music CD.

Memory back up function

Please note that the following items will be deleted from the unit's memory if the power cord is disconnected from the AC outlet for approximately 1 day.

• Power mode. • SW RE-MIX ON/OFF.

• Input selector settings. • Distance setting.

• Picture output. • Input mode setting.

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.

CINEMA EQ

Cinema EQ mode will produce a more dynamic sound quality in any conditions. You can enjoy a more impressive sound effect when you switch CINEMA EQ ON during Dolby Digital and DTS playback.

ACTIVE EQ

The ACTIVE EQ function provides an enhanced sound balance from the

5.1 channel speakers especially when small speakers are being used and it is available during the receiver’s operation. However, this feature is not available during front large speaker selection and DVD 6-channel playback.

Universal IR (InfraRed) remote control

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 in the following pages. When connecting the related system components, be sure to 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.

Notes

1. Be sure to insert all connection cords securely. If their connections are imperfect, the sound may not be produced or there will be noise interference.

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 whose 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 each end, one red for the right channel and one white for the left channel. These cables are usually packed together 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”. ›

Input mode settings

CD/DVD, VIDEO 2 and DVD/6CH 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. To use the analog audio input for playback instead (if, for example, you have connected a VCR to the VIDEO 2 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, VIDEO 2,

DVD/6CH.

2 Press the INPUT MODE key.

Each press switches the setting as follows:

In DTS play mode

1 F-AUTO (digital input, analog input) 2 D-MANUAL (digital input)

In CD/DVD, VIDEO 2, DVD/6CH play mode

1 F-AUTO (digital input, analog input) 2 D-MANUAL (digital input) 3 6CH INPT (DVD/6CH input) 4 ANALOG (analog input)

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 record player.

Auto detect:

In “F-AUTO” (full auto) mode (AUTO DETECT and DIGITAL indicators light up), the receiver detects the digital or analog input signals automatically. Priority is given to digital signal during input mode selection. The receiver will select the input mode and 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 full auto. To keep the receiver set to the currently selected listening mode, use the INPUT MODE key to select “D-MANUAL” (digital manual). 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 digital. If the INPUT MODE key is pressed quickly, sound may not be produced. Press the INPUT MODE key again.
