6-channel Surround Playback Capability (DVD Audio)

Because the main unit is equipped with center (1 channel), front (2 channels) and surround (2 channels) amps, this product is capable of 6-channel surround playback when the system is upgraded with a subwoofer

(1 channel). 6-channel surround playback using the noncompressed high-quality linear PCM system allows you to enjoy realistic sound, like having a concert hall in your car.

(DVD Audio format, etc. are subject to change.)

5.1-channel Surround Playback Capability (DVD Video)

Because the main unit is equipped with center (1 channel), front (2 channels) and surround (2 channels) amps as well as a newly developed AV decoder, this product is capable of Dolby Digital/dts 5.1-channel surround playback when the system is upgraded with a subwoofer (0.1 channel) and a TV monitor.

The sound that is played back independently on each of the 5.1 channels creates an audio environment similar to that of a movie theater in your car.

Center Speaker

The main unit is equipped with a center speaker for vivid reproduction of mid-range and treble, such as vocals. This eliminates the need to purchase and install a separate center speaker in order to listen to multichannel DVD materials.

Find the model number and serial number on either the back or bottom of the unit. Please record them in the spaces below and retain this booklet as a permanent record of your purchase to help with identification in case of theft.

We recommend you to use the speaker that is built into this unit. When using a separate speaker, install the speaker near the center console of the car, or near the dashboard.

Note:

Because the positioning of the sound from the subwoofer is not as dependent on the installation location as it is with other speakers, the subwoofer can be placed anywhere desired. (A separate subwoofer amplifier is required.)

≥If this unit is going to be used without the installation of the surround speakers or subwoofer, set the speaker setting to suit the speaker system to be used. ( page 24)
