DESCRIPTION

DTS was introduced in 1994 to provide 5.1 channels of discrete digital audio into home theater systems. DTS brings you premium quality discrete multichannel digital sound to both movies and music. DTS is a multichannel sound system designed to create full range digital sound reproduction. The no compromise DTS digital process sets the standard of quality for cinema sound by delivering an exact copy of the studio master recordings to neighborhood and home theaters. Now, every moviegoer can hear the sound exactly as the moviemaker intended. DTS can be enjoyed in the home for either movies or music on of DVD’s, LD’s, and CD’s.

“DTS” and “DTS Digital Surround” are registered trademarks of Digital Theater Systems, Inc.

The advantages of discrete multichannel systems over matrix are well known. But even in homes equipped for discrete multichannel, there remains a need for high-quality matrix decoding. This is because of the large library of matrix surround motion pictures available on disc and on VHS tape; and analog television broadcasts. The typical matrix decoder of today derives a center channel and a mono surround channel from two-channel matrix stereo material. It is better than a simple matrix in that it includes steering logic to improve separation, but because of its mono, band-limited surround it can be disappointing to users accustomed to discrete multichannel.

Neo:6 offers several important improvements as follow,

• Neo:6 provides up to six full-band channels of matrix decoding from stereo matrix material. Users with 6.1 and 5.1 systems will derive six and five separate channels, respectively, corresponding to the standard home-theater speaker layouts.

• Neo:6 technology allows various sound elements within a channel or channels to be steered separately, and in a way which follows naturally from the original presentation.

• Neo:6 offers a music mode to expand stereo nonmatrix recordings into the five- or sixchannel layout, in a way which does not diminish the subtlety and integrity of the original stereo recording.

DTS-ES Extended Surround is a new multichannel digital signal format developed by Digital Theater Systems Inc. While offering high compatibility with the conventional DTS Digital Surround format, DTS-ES Extended Surround greatly improves the 360-degree surround impression and space expression thanks to further expanded surround signals. This format has been used professionally in movie theaters since 1999. In addition to the 5.1 surround channels (FL, FR, C, SL, SR and LFE), DTS-ES Extended Surround also offers the SB (Surround Back) channel for surround playback with a total of 6.1 channels. DTS-ES Extended Surround includes two signal formats with different surround signal recording methods, as DTS-ES Discrete 6.1 and DTS-ES Matrix 6.1.

“DTS”, “DTS-ES Extended Surround” and “Neo:6” are trademarks of Digital Theater Systems, Inc.

The stereo CD is a 16-bit medium with sampling at

44.1 kHz. Professional audio has been 20- or 24-

bit for some time, and there is increasing interest in higher sampling rates both for recording and for delivery into the home. Greater bit depths provide extended dynamic range. Higher sampling rates allow wider frequency response and the use of anti-alias and reconstruction filters with more favorable aural characteristics.

DTS 96/24 allows for 5.1channel sound tracks to be encoded at a rate of 96kHz/24bits on DVDVideo titles. When DVD-video appeared, it became possible to deliver 24-bit, 96 kHz audio into the home, but only in two channels, and with serious limitations on picture. This capability has had little use. DVD-audio allows 96/24 in six channels, but a new player is needed, and only analog outputs are provided, necessitating the use of the D/A converters and analog electronics provided in the player.

DTS 96/24 offers the following:

1. Sound quality transparent to the original 96/24 master.

2.Full backward compatibility with all existing decoders. (Existing decoders will output a 48 kHz signal)

3.No new player required: DTS 96/24 can be carried on DVD-video, or in the video zone of DVD-audio, accessible to all DVD players.

4. 96/24 5.1-channel sound with full-quality fullmotion video, for music programs and motion picture soundtracks on DVD-video.

Dolby Digital identifies the use of Dolby Digital audio coding for such consumer formats as DVD and DTV. As with film sound, Dolby Digital can provide up to five full-range channels for left, center, and right screen channels, independent left and right surround channels, and a sixth ( ".1") channel for low-frequency effects.

Dolby Surround Pro Logic II is an improved matrix decoding technology that provides better spatiality and directionality on Dolby Surround program material; provides a convincing three-dimensional soundfield on conventional stereo music recordings; and is ideally suited to bring the surround experience to automotive sound. While conventional surround programming is fully compatible with Dolby Surround Pro Logic

decoders, soundtracks will be able to be encoded specifically to take full advantage of Pro Logic

playback, including separate left and right surround channels. (Such material is also compatible with conventional Pro Logic decoders.)

Dolby Digital EX creates six full-bandwidth output channels from 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 results, Dolby Digital EX should be used with movies soundtracks recorded with Dolby Digital Surround EX.

Circle Surround II (CS-II) is a powerful and versatile

multichannel technology. CS-II is designed to enable up to 6.1 multichannel surround sound playback from mono, stereo, CS encoded sources and other matrix encoded sources. In all cases the decoder extends it into 6 channels of surround audio and a LFE/subwoofer signal. The CS-II decoder creates a listening environment that places the listener “inside” music performances and dramatically improves both hi-fi audio conventional surround-encoded video material. CS-II provides composite stereo rear channels to greatly improve separation and image positioning – adding a heightened sense of realism to both audio and A/V productions. CS-II is packed with other useful feature like dialog clarity (SRS Dialog) for movies and cinema-like bass enrichment (TruBass). CS-II can enable the dialog to become clearer and more discernable in movies and it enables the bass frequencies contained in the original programming to more closely achieve low frequencies – overcoming the low frequency limitations of the speakers by full octave.

FEATURES

The SR6400 incorporates the latest generation of digital surround sound decoding technology such as Dolby Digital EX, Dolby Digital, DTS ES (Discrete 6.1 and Matrix 6.1), DTS Neo:6 (Cinema, Music), Dolby Pro-Logic II (Movie and Music), Circle Surround II (Cinema and Music) . In addition, Marantz has focused on the future. By utilizing pre-out jacks, 6.1 direct inputs and a RS232C communication port, the SR6400 is tomorrow's technology, today!

The SR6400 features a fully discrete 6 channel amplifier section capable of delivering 100 watts of high-current amplification, for continuously clean and stable power into each of the six channels. It employs a massive EI power transformer in combination with oversized filter capacitors. This design configuration is capable of a clear and powerful reproduction of the most demanding action movie soundtracks and full range (multichannel) music discs. Through its ability to generate very high output voltages, the SR6400 can easily drive the most demanding speakers with optimum results.

The SR6400 incorporates the most advanced Digital Signal Processing circuitry, along with a Crystal® 192 kHz/24 bit D/A converter in each of the 7 channels. Independent power supply circuits are incorporated for the FL display, audio and video sections for maximum separation, clarity and dynamic range. Together with hand-selected customized components, all elements work in harmony to recreate the emotion, exactly as the artist had intended.

The SR6400 is designed and engineered with extensive feedback from custom installation experts, dealers and consumers. It features a RS232C communication port, heavy duty speaker binding posts and an extensive array of both analog and digital inputs / outputs. With 6 assignable digital inputs, 2 component inputs, SACD Multi Channel (6.1 channel) direct inputs and a speaker-B and OSD output versatility is taken to a stunning new level. Furthermore, the SR6400 can output the OSD information through the Y/C (S-video) and composite video outputs.

The new generation of Marantz Receivers is stylish and completely symmetrical. On the front panel of the SR6400, buttons are kept to a minimum. Source selectors and volume controls are intuitively placed. The large left dial knob on the left can be used as multi dial which allows all functions of the SR6400 to be operated via the front panel. The SR6400 is here to perform in your unrivaled home entertainment setup.

The TruSurround Headphone technology provides a surround sound listening experience over headphones. When listening to multichannel content such as DVD movies over headphones, the listening experience is fundamentally different than listening to speakers. Since the headphone speaker drivers are covering the pinna of the ear, the listening experience differs greatly from traditional speaker playback. TruSurround utilizes patented headphone perspective curves to solve this problem and provides a non-fatiguing, immersive, home theater listening experience. TruSurround Headphone also delivers exceptional 3D audio from mono and stereo material.

These are the video inputs and outputs. There are 4 video inputs and 2 video outputs and each one includes both composite video and S-video configurations. Connect VCRs, DVD players, and other video components to the video inputs. S-video sources can be viewed through the Svideo outputs, and composite sources can only be viewed through the composite output. The 2 video output channels can be used to be connected to video tape recorders for making recordings.

FM antenna terminal (75 ohms)

Connect an external FM antenna with a coaxial cable, or a cable network FM source.

AM antenna and ground terminals

Connect the supplied AM loop antenna. Use the terminals marked “AM” and “GND”. The supplied AM loop antenna will provide good AM reception in most areas. Position the loop antenna until you hear the best reception.

COMPONENT VIDEO INPUT/OUTPUT

If your DVD player or other device has component video connectors, be sure to connect them to these component video connectors on the SR6400. The SR6400 has two component video input connectors to obtain the color information (Y, CB, CR) directly from the recorded DVD signal or other video component and one component video output connector to output it directly into the matrix decoder of the display device. By sending the pure DVD component video signal directly, the DVD signal forgoes the extra processing that normally would degrade the image. The result is vastly increased image quality, with incredibly life like colors and crisp detail.

Notes:

• This component video output will not display the OSD menu system.

Preamp Outputs (L, R, SL, SR, SB, C)

Jacks for L(front left), R (front right), C (Center), SL (surround left), SR (surround right) and SB (surround back). Use these jacks for connection to external power amplifiers.

MONITOR OUT

This is a monitor output and each one includes both composite video and S-video configurations. When connecting two video monitors or televisions, be aware that the OSD interface can be used with both MONITOR OUT connections.

⁄0

Subwoofer Output

Connect this jack to the line level input of a powered subwoofer. If an external subwoofer amplifier is used, connect this jack to the subwoofer amplifier input. If you are using two subwoofers, either powered or with a 2 channel subwoofer amplifier, connect a “Y” connector to the subwoofer output jack and run one

CONNECTIONS

SPEAKER PLACEMENT

The ideal surround speaker system for this unit is 7-speaker systems, using front left and right speakers, a center speaker, surround left and right speakers, a surround back and a subwoofer. For best results we recommend that all front speakers be of the same type, with identical or similar driver units. This will deliver smooth pans across the front sound stage as the action moves from side to side. Your center channel speaker is very important as over 80 % of the dialog from a typical motion picture emanates from the center channel. It should possess similar sonic characteristics to the main speakers. Surround channel speakers need not be identical to the front channel speakers, but they should be of high quality. The surround center speaker is useful for playback of Dolby Digital Surround EX or DTS-ES. One of the benefits of both Dolby Digital and DTS is that surround channels are discrete full range, while they were frequency limited in earlier “Pro Logic’ type systems. Bass effects are an important part of home theater. For optimal enjoyment a subwoofer should be used as it is optimized for low frequency reproduction. If you have full range front speakers, however, they may be used in place of a subwoofer with proper setting of the switches in the menu system.

Surround Left

Surround Back

Surround Right

Front left and right speakers

We recommend to set the front L and R speakers with 45-60 degrees from the listening position.

Center speaker

Align the front line of the center speaker with the front L/R speakers. Or place the center speaker a little backward from the line.

Subwoofer

Front Left

Front Center

Front Right

Surround left and right speakers

Place the speakers right beside of the listening position or a little backward.

Surround back speaker

Place the speaker behind the listening position.

Subwoofer

We recommend using a sub-woofer to have maximum bass effect. Sub-woofer bears only low frequency range so you can place it any where in the room.

HEIGHT OF THE SPEAKER UNITS

Front left and right speakers, and a center speaker

Align the tweeters and mid-range drivers on the three front speakers at the same height, as best as possible.

Surround left and right speakers, and surround back speaker

Place the surround left, right and surround back speakers higher than your ears by about 2 Ft. - 3 Ft.(70cm – 1m). Also place the speakers at the same height, sa best as possible.

Note;

• Use magnetically-shielded speakers for front left,

right and the center speakers when the speakers are installed near the TV and the TV is a monitor type.

The volume can be adjusted within the range of – ∞ to 18 dB, in steps of 1 dB.

•

However, when the channel level is set as described on page 17, if the volume for any channel is set at +1 dB or greater, the volume cannot be adjusted up to 18 dB.

(In this case the maximum volume adjustment range is “18 dB - Maximum value of channel level)

During a listening session you may wish to adjust the Bass and Treble Control to suit your listening tastes or room acoustics.

(Using the SR6400)

To change the selector mode , press the SELECT button, until "BASS" or "TREBLE" is shown on the front display. Turn the SELECTOR knob to the desired level of tone control.

(Using the remote control unit)

To adjust the bass effect , press BASS or BASS on the remote. To adjust the treble effect , press TREBLE or

TREBLE on the remote.

Notes :

• The tone control function can work in the AUTO Surround, Stereo, Dolby PL2, DTS, DTS-ES, and Multi Ch. Stereo mode.

To temporarily silence all speaker outputs such as when interrupted by a phone call, press the MUTE button on the front panel or MUTE button on the remote. This will interrupt the output to all speakers and the head-phone jack, but it will not affect any recording or dubbing that may be in progress. When the system is muted, the display will show “MUTE” . Press the MUTE button again to return to normal operation.

USING THE SLEEP TIMER

To program the SR6400 for automatic standby, press tne SLEEP button on the remote. Each press of the button will increase the time before shut down in the following sequence.

The sleep time will be shown for a few seconds in the display on the front panel, and it will count down until the time has elapsed. When the programmed sleep time has elapsed, the unit will automatically turn off. Note that the SLEEP indicator on the display will illuminate when the Sleep function is programmed. To cancel the Sleep function, press the SLEEP button until the display shows “SLEEP OFF” and the SLEEP indicator will disappear.

NIGHT MODE

Press the NIGHT button on the remote to turn on the NIGHT mode. Selecting the Night Mode ON is effective in Dolby Digital only, and it compresses the dynamic range. This softens loud passages such as sudden explosions, to help prevent disturbing others late at night. To turn off the Night mode, press the NIGHT button again.

SURROUND MODE

The SR6400 is equipped with many surround modes. These are provided to reproduce a variety of surround sound effects, according to the content of the source to be played. The available surround modes may be restricted depending on the input signal and speaker setup.

AUTO

When this mode is selected, the receiver determines whether the digital input signal is Dolby Digital, Dolby Digital Surround EX, DTS, DTS-ES, DTS 96/ 24 or PCM-audio. Surround EX & DTS-ES will operate for multichannel source that has a Dolby Digital Surround EX or DTS-ES auto trigger flag in the digital signal. When a Dolby Digital or DTS signal is input, the number of channels for which the corresponding signal is encoded will be played. Inputting a Dolby Digital two channel signal with Dolby surround status automatically subjects that signal to Pro Logic II movie processing before play. PCM 96 kHz source material can be played in this mode.

Notes:

• When you use this mode with certain DVD and CD players, performing operations such as “Skip” or “Stop” may momentarily interrupt the output.

•

When the signal is not decoded, the mode is changed to AUTO mode automatically. Refer to page 22 to confirm the available decoding mode.

MODE

(Dolby Digital, Pro Logic II MOVIE, Pro Logic MUSIC, Pro Logic)

This mode is used with source materials encoded in Dolby Digital and Dolby Surround.

DOLBY DIGITAL

This mode is enabled when playing source materials encoded in Dolby Digital. Playing multichannel encoded 5.1-channel Dolby Digital sources provides five main audio channels (left, center, right, surround left and surround right) and Low Frequency Effect channel. Dolby Digital EX decoding is not available in this mode.

Dolby Pro Logic II brings the excitement of surround sound to any stereo mix, while making existing Dolby Surround mixes sound more like discrete 5.1 channels Surround sound. Dolby Pro Logic II has 3 modes. Please see below.

Pro Logic II MOVIE

This mode provides 5.1 channel surround sound from Dolby Surround encoded stereo movie sound tracks.

Pro Logic II MUSIC

This mode provides 5.1 channel surround sound from conventional stereo sources, analog or digital, such as CD, Tape, FM, TV, Stereo VCR, etc.

Pro Logic

This mode emulated original Dolby Pro Logic decoding (3/1 surround) suit for Dolby Surround encoded stereo movie soundtracks.

Notes:

•

Pro Logic II mode is available for a 2ch input signal which is encoded in Dolby Digital or PCM format.

• PCM-audio signals can be subjected to Pro Logic processing when the sampling frequency is 32 kHz, 44.1 kHz or 48 kHz.

EX/ES

This mode provides 6.1 channel surround for DOLBY DIGITAL EX, DTS-ES encoded source material such as DVD. This mode cannot be used when an analog input has been selected.

Dolby Digital EX

In a movie theater, film soundtracks that have been encoded with Dolby Digital surround EX technology are able to reproduce an extra channel which has been added during the mixing of the program. This channel, called Surround Back, places sounds behind the listener in addition to the currently available front left, front center, front right, surround right, surround left and subwoofer channels. This additional channel provides the opportunity for more detailed imaging behind the listener and brings more depth, spacious ambience and sound localization than ever before. Dolby Digital EX is not available in the system

without surround back speaker(s).

DTS-ES (Discrete 6.1, Matrix 6.1)

DTS-ES adds the surround center channel audio to the DTS 5.1-channel format to improve the acoustic positioning and makes acoustic image movement more natural with the 6.1-channel reproduction. This receiver incorporates a DTS-ES decoder, which can handle DTS-ES Discrete-encoded and DTS-ES Matrix-encoded program sources from DVD, etc.. DTS-ES Discrete 6.1 features digital discrete recording of all channels including the surround back channel(s) and higher quality of audio reproduction. DTS-ES is not available in the system without a surround back speaker.

dts MODE

(dts, Neo:6 Cinema, Neo:6 Music)

This mode is for DTS encoded source materials such as LASER DISC, CD, and DVD. Neo:6 is for some 2 channel sources.

dts : This mode is enabled when playing source materials encoded in dts multichannel. Playing multichannel encoded 5.1-channel dts sources provides five main audio channels (left, center, right, surround left and surround right) and Low Frequency Effect channel. dts-ES decoding is not available in this mode. The DTS mode cannot be used when an analog input has been selected.

Neo:6 Cinema, Neo:6 Music

This mode decodes 2-channel signals into 6channel signals using high-accuracy digital matrix technology. The DTS NEO:6 decoder has near-discrete properties in the frequency characteristics of the channels as well as in channel separation. According to the signals to be played back, DTS NEO:6 uses either the NEO:6 CINEMA mode optimized for movie playback or the NEO:6 MUSIC mode optimized for music playback.

Note:

•

Neo:6 mode is available to 2ch input signals which are encoded in Dolby Digital or PCM format.

• PCM-audio signals can be subjected to Pro Logic processing when the sampling frequency is 32

Page 24

kHz, 44.1 kHz or 48 kHz.

MULTI CH. ST

This mode is used to create a wider, deeper and more natural soundstage from two channel source material. This is done by feeding the left channel signal to both left front and left surround speaker and the right channel signal to both right front and right surround speaker. Additionally, the center channel reproduces a mix of the right and left channel.

CIRCLE SURROUND II (CSII-CINEMA, CSII-MUSIC, CSII-MONO)

Circle Surround is designed to enable multichannel surround sound playback of non-encoded and multichannel encoded material. Backward compatibility provides listeners with up to

6.1 channels of surround performance from entire collection of music and film, including broadcast, videotape and stereo recorded music. Depending on source material, you can select CSIICinema mode, CSII-Music mode or CSII-Mono mode.

Note:

•

CS II mode is available for 2ch input signals which are encoded in Dolby Digital or PCM format.

• PCM-audio signals can be subjected to Pro Logic processing when the sampling frequency is 32 kHz, 44.1 kHz or 48 kHz.

VIRTUAL

This mode creates a virtualized surround sound experience from a two-speaker (front L and R) playback system playing any multichannel audio source (such as found on DVDs and digital broadcasts), including Dolby Digital, Dolby Pro Logic or DTS.

STEREO

This mode bypasses all surround processing. In stereo program sources, the left and right channels play normally when PCM-audio or analog stereo is input. With Dolby Digital and DTS sources, the 5.1 multichannels are converted to two channel stereo. 96 kHz PCM source material can be played

back in stereo mode.

S (SOURCE ) - DIRECT

In the source direct mode, the tone control circuit and bass management configuration are bypassed for full range frequency response and the purist audio reproduction. 96 kHz PCM source material can be played back in this mode.

Notes:

• Internal speaker size is setup to front L/R = Large, Center = Large, Surround L/R = Large and Subwoofer = Yes automatically. Tone controls and additional processing are also defeated.

• When you use this mode with certain DVD and CD players, performing operations such as “Skip” or “Stop” may momentarily interrupt the output.

CAUTION

NOTE for DTS signal

* Connected DVD-player, laser-disc player or CD-

player needs to support DTS-digital output. You may not be able to play some DTS source signals from certain CD players and LD players even if you connect the player to the SR6400 digitally. This is because the digital signal has been processed (such as the output level, sampling frequency, or frequency response) and the SR6400 cannot recognize the signal as DTS data.

* Depending on the player used, DTS play may

produce a short noise. This is not a malfunction.

* While signals from DTS-laser disc or CD are

playing in another Surround mode, you cannot switch to digital input or from digital input to analog input by INPUT SETUP in SETUP MAIN MENU or the A/D button.

* The outputs for the VCR 1 OUT, DSS/VCR 2

OUT, TAPE OUT, and CD-R OUT output analog audio signals. Do not record from CDs or LDs that support DTS using these outputs. If you do, the DTS-encoded signal will be recorded as noise.

NOTE for Dolby Digital Surround EX signal

* When playing Dolby Digital Surround EX-

encoded software in 6.1 channels, it is required to set the EX/ES mode.

* Note that some of Dolby Digital Surround EX-

encoded software does not contain the

identification signal. In this case, set the EX/ ES mode manually.

NOTE for 96kHz PCM audio

* AUTO, Source- DIRECT, and STEREO modes

can be used when playing PCM signals with a sampling frequency of 96 kHz (such as from DVD-Video discs that contain 24 bit, 96 kHz audio). If such signals are input during playback in one of the other surround modes, output from SR6400 will be muted.

Certain DVD player models inhibit digital output. For details, refer to the player’s operation manual.

Some DVD formatted discs feature copy protection. When using such disc, 96 kHz PCM signal is not output from the DVD player. For details, refer to the player's operation manual.

The relation between the selected surround mode and the input signal

The surround mode is selected with the surround mode selector on SR6400 or the remote control unit. However, the sound you hear is subject to the relationship between the selected surround mode and input signal. That relationship is as follows;

Note:

• Dolby Digital (2 ch: Lt/Rt): signal with Dolby Surround flag Speakers are full set.

• No sound outputs from the surround speaker, center speaker and subwoofer if the DVD disc has no surround data.

RECORDING AN ANALOG SOURCE

In normal operation, the audio or video source selected for listening through the SR6400 is sent to the record outputs. This means that any program you are watching or listening to may be recorded simply by placing machines connected to the outputs for TAPE OUT,

CD-R/MD OUT, VCR1 OUT, and DSS/VCR2 OUT

in the record mode.

To record the input source signal you are currently watching or listening to

Select the input source to record by pressing the corresponding input selector button. The input source is now selected and you may watch or listen to it as desired.

The currently selected input source signal is output to the TAPE OUT , CD-R/MD OUT, VCR1

OUT, and DSS/VCR2 OUT outputs for recording.

Start recording to the recording component as desired.

Recording the video from one source and the audio from another

You can add the sound from one source to the video of another source to make your own video recordings. Below is an example of recording the sound from a compact disc player connected to CD IN and the video from a video camera connected to AUX IN to video cassette recorder connected to the VCR1 OUT jack.

Press the AUX input source button to set video output.

Press the CD input source button to set audio output.

Now “CD” has been selected as the audio input source and “AUX” as the video input source.

Notes:

•

If you change the input source during recording, you will record the signals from the newly selected input source.

• You cannot record the surround effects.

• Digital input signals are only output to the digital

outputs. There is no conversion from digital to analog .

When connecting CD players and other digital components, do not connect only the digital terminals, but the analog ones as well.

HT-EQ

Press the EQ button on the remote to turn on the HT-EQ mode. The tonal balance of a film soundtrack will be excessively bright and harsh when played back over audio equipment in the home. This is because film soundtracks were designed to be played back in large movie theater environments. Activating the HT-EQ feature when watching a film made for movie theaters corrects this and restores the correct tonal balance.

SPEAKER A/B

SR6400 has speaker system - A and speaker systemB for front L/R channels. You can select these systems by pressing

SPEAKERS A/B button on the front panel or SPKR A/B on the remote

6.1 CH INPUT.

The SR6400 is equipped for future expansion through the use of Multi channel SACD multichannel player or DVD-Audio player. When this is selected, the input signals connected to the L(front left), R (front right), CENTER, SL (surround left), SR (surround right) and SB (surround back) channels of the 6.1 CH. In jacks are output directly to the front (left and right), center, surround (left and right) and surround back speaker systems as well as the pre-out jacks without passing through the surround circuitry. In addition, the signal input to the SW (subwoofer) jack is output to the PRE OUT SW (subwoofer) jack. When 6.1 CH. INPUT is selected, the last video input used remains routed to the Monitor Outputs. This permits simultaneous viewing with video sources.

If it is necessary to adjust the output level of each channel, use “6.1 Ch. INPUT LEVEL” in the OSD menu system as desired. Adjust the speaker output levels so that you can hear the same sound level from each speaker at the listening position. For the front left, front right, center, surround left, surround right and surround back speakers, the output levels can be adjusted between –10 to +10 dB. The subwoofer can be adjusted between –15 and +10 dB. These adjustments will be stored to 6.1 Ch. INPUT memory. (see to page 18)

Adjust the main volume with the MAIN VOLUME knob or the VOL buttons on the remote.

To cancel the 6.1 Ch. INPUT setting, press the 6.1

CH INPUT button on the front panel or press 7.1/6.1 IN on the remote.

Notes:

• When the 6.1 Ch. Input is in use, you may not select a surround mode, as the external decoder determines processing.

• In addition, there is no signal at the record outputs when the 6.1 Ch. Input is in use.

Select a desired Video source to decide the routed video signal to the Monitor Outputs .

Press the 6.1 CH INPUT button on the front panel or press 7.1/6.1 IN on the remote to switch the 6.1 channel input.

MACRO MODE

PROGRAMMING MACROS

Macros make it possible to use a single function button to perform more complex series of operations that would normally require pressing several buttons. A single button can be programmed to perform up to 10 steps in a sequence. A typical example of such a series might be as follows:

• Turn the main amplifier power ON → Switch the function to DVD → Set the Surround Mode to Virtual → Set the DVD player to PLAY.

• No signals may be transmitted during macro programming.

•

The various steps that make up a macro are set initially to be sent one after another in 1 second intervals, however these intervals may be shortened to as little as 0.5 seconds or lengthened to as much as 5 seconds using the Setup mode.

• In the macro mode, the number of steps in the macro are displayed as well as the selected function’s name.

• Macros may be programmed for each of the 12 function buttons as follows;

TV, DVD, VCR1, DSS, TUNER, CD, CDR, MD, TAPE, AUX1, AUX2, AMP

Press and hold the T.MODE and MENU button until the MACRO is displayed.

• MACRO and LEARN indicators are displayed blinking on the LCD, also.

Press the Function button for which you wish to program a series of operations. In this case, let’s use the example of the DVD player. Press the DVD Function button. The LCD will display DVD-M.

Characters displayed on the LCD include the following, depending on the function button for which the macro is being programmed:

TV-M, DVD-M, VCR-M, DSS-M, TUN-M, CD-M, CDR-M, MD-M, TAP-M, AX1-M, AX2M, AMP-M

• If a macro has already been set for the selected function button, the LCD will blink.

Press the buttons for the operations you wish to program as a macro in the sequence you want the macro to program them. For example, press DVD, PLAY.

• The number of steps in the macro is displayed on LCD and this number increases by 1 with each button pressed.

• Each function button can be programmed to perform up to 10 steps in sequence.

When you are finished programming macros, press and hold the OK button until the display returns to USE mode.

• Macros cannot be programmed for the MEMO, cursor/OK, VOL / or CL buttons.

In the macro mode it is possible to program the memory to perform macros containing up to 10 steps.

• Each of the function operations (12 including CD, CD-R, etc.) can be used in a macro more than once, however for all except AMP, only the first function operation will be transmitted as a signal from the remote controller. Accordingly, within a single macro, it is not possible to switch between multiple function operations. (This is to prevent the switching of the receiver function operation.) Within a macro, the second time a function operation is used, it will only be used on the remote controller itself and no signal will be transmitted to the component.

Note:

• If, while programming, no buttons are pressed for approximately 1 minute, the remote controll will automatically return to normal mode, and no macro will be programmed in the memory.

CONFIRMING MACROS

Macros may be confirmed using the following procedure.

Press and hold the T.MODE and MENU button until the MACRO is displayed on the LCD.

•

LEARN and MACRO are displayed blinking.

Press the Function button to be confirmed. Let’s use the example of the DVD player, by pressing the DVD Function button.

•

DVD-M, LEARN and MACRO are displayed blinking.

Press the VOL button.

• DVD-1 is displayed and LEARN is disappears.

• The programmed operation is transmitting.

Repeat step 3. until the last number of the macro is displayed.

• The display will return to step 1.

•

Each programmed operation is transmitting when the number of the macro is displayed.

To return to the USE mode, press and hold down the OK button until USE is displayed in the display.

EDITING MACROS

Macros may be edited using the following procedure.

Press and hold the T.MODE and MENU button until the MACRO are displayed on the LCD.

• LEARN and MACRO is displayed blinking.

Press the Function button to be changed. Let’s use the example of the DVD player, by pressing the DVD Function button.

•

DVD-M, LEARN and MACRO are displayed

blinking.

Press the Cursor / buttons to select the number of the macro to be edited.

• The programmed operation is displayed after the number of the macro is displayed.

• The number of the macro can be changed with the cursor / buttons.

• To rewrite an existing macro step, simply press the button for the new step. The old step will be erased and rewritten with the new step.

• To insert a new step in between existing steps in a macro, after step 3 press the MEMO button, then press the button for the new step. The numbers of the other steps will be adjusted accordingly to accommodate the new step. Since only 10 steps may be stored in any macro, the tenth step will be erased if an step is inserted when the total number of steps is already 10.

• To erase a step in a macro, after step call up the number of the step to be erased and press the CL button.

Press the OK button to return step 1.

To return the USE mode, press and hold down the OK button until USE is displayed in the display.
