Dolby Digital and Dolby Digital EX
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. As for Dolby
Digital EX, it creates six full-bandwidth output channels from the 5.1
channel sources. This is done using a matrix decoder that derives three
surround channels from the two in the original recording. For best result,
Dolby Digital EX should be used with movie soundtracks recorded with
Dolby Digital Surround EX.
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

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 (KRF-V5080D only)
If you own a DVD player equipped with 6-channel output, this model
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.
ACTIVE EQ

condition. You can enjoy a more impressive sound effect when ACTIVE
EQ is turned on.
Universal IR (InfraRed) remote control
In addition to the basic receiver, the remote control supplied with this
model can also operate KENWOOD DVD player. Just follow the simple
setup procedure.
DTS and DTS-ES
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.
DTS-ES (Extended Surround) presents 6.1 channels surround system
with additional Surround back channel which evolved from the conventional 5.1 channels surround system. DTS-ES format that was recorded
in DVD, CD or LD comprises of two modes. DTS-ES Discrete 6.1
produces the discrete surround back which is completely independent
and DTS-ES Matrix 6.1 produces the surround back which synthesized
within the left and right surround channels using matrix technology. DTSES has perfect compatibility with the conventional 5.1 channels surround
system. 6.1 channels surround with an additional surround back presents a more natural presence and surround effects by increasing the
impression of the sound image from back.
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.
Neo:6
Neo:6 is a new technology which was developed by DTS. It can produce
high grade 6 channels surround with an astonishing fidelity from 2
channels content. Neo:6 has 2 modes, “CINEMA” mode is for movie
playback and “MUSIC” mode is for music playback.

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 at each end, red for the right channel and 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 by referring to “In case of difficulty”.º
Input mode settings
CD/DVD,VIDEO2, DVD (VR-806) and DVD/6CH(KRF-V5080D) inputs
each include jacks for digital audio input and analog audio input.
After completing connections and turning on this model, follow the
steps below.
INPUT SELECTORLISTEN MODE
INPUT MODE
1 Use the INPUT SELECTOR knob to select CD/DVD, VIDEO2,
DVD (VR-806 only), DVD/6CH (KRF-V5080D only).
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, VIDEO2, DVD(VR-806 only), DVD/6CH(KRF-V5080D
only) play mode
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), this model detects the digital or analog input
signals automatically. Priority is given to digital signal during input
mode selection. This model 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 this model 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.
In D-MANUAL mode, if the audio reproduction stops in the middle
due to change in the input signals etc, press the LISTEN MODE key.
If the INPUT MODE key is pressed quickly, sound may not be
produced. Press the INPUT MODE key again.
