CONNECTING SPEAKERS
CONNECTING SPEAKERS
Follow the procedure below to connect speakers to the DVD receiver. Here, the connection example uses the YAMAHA
NX-E700 (consisting of two speakers) and its supplied cables. For information on your speakers, refer to the owner’s
manual for the speakers.
y
You can also use commercially available speakers (see page 8).
Notes
• Do not connect the power cable of the DVD receiver until all cable connections are completed.
• Be sure to connect the left channel (L), right channel (R), “+” (red) and “–” (black) properly. If the connections are faulty, no sound
will be heard from the speakers, and if the polarity of the speaker connections is incorrect, the sound will be unnatural and lack bass.
• Do not let the bare speaker wires touch each other or do not let them touch any metal part of this unit. This could damage the DVD
receiver and/or the speakers.
• Use speakers with the specified impedance shown on the rear panel of this unit.
• Use magnetically shielded speakers. If this type of speakers still creates the interference with the monitor, place the speakers away
from the monitor.

stations
(U.K. and Europe models only)
The Radio Data System is a transmission system for FM
stations used mainly in the U.K. and Europe. The Radio
Data System transmissions include various types of
information such as PS (Program Service), PTY (Program
Type), RT (Radio Text), and CT (Clock Time). Follow the
procedure below to receive FM stations by the Radio Data
System transmissions on the DVD receiver.

About information type
The Radio Data System includes the following types of
information.
• PS (Program Service)
Displays the station name.
• PTY (Program Type)
Displays the program type (genre).
• RT (Radio Text)
Displays text information related to the Radio Data
System broadcast. (Shows an under bar for a nonidentifiable character.)
• CT (Clock Time)
Displays the current time. (Shows the message “CT
WAIT” when time data cannot be received properly.)
Notes
• The available Radio Data System information types vary
depending on the station.
• If the FM Radio Data System station’s signal transmission is
too weak, the DVD receiver may not be able to receive Radio
Data System information completely. In particular, RT (Radio
Text) information uses a lot of bandwidth, so it may not be
available even when other modes are selectable.
• The Radio Data System information may not transmit under
weak radio wave conditions. In this case, press
control to let the DVD receiver’s radio wave reception mode
automatically change to the monaural mode to increase the
signal quality.

ProblemCauseSolution
Too much noise is
generated.
The Auto Tuning function
(page 33) does not work.
The noises may be generated from
atmospheric electricity, lightening,
fluorescent lights, motors, or

If too much noise is generated
especially in the evening, the DVD
receiver may be placed close to a TV.
The AM loop antenna may be
connected improperly.
The radio station you selected may
be far away from your area or radio
wave reception is weak in your area.
Connect an outdoor antenna and
establish better grounding to decrease
noises. However, it is difficult to
eliminate these types of noises.
Place the DVD receiver further away
from a TV.
Make sure the AM loop antenna is
connected properly (page 10).

Notes
• The following discs cannot be played on the DVD receiver.
CD-ROM, DVD-ROM, DVD-RAM, CDV. (This product can
play some types of DVD-R (Video format only), DVD-RW
(Video format only), DVD+R or DVD+RW discs.)
• The DVD receiver cannot play a CD-R, CD-RW, DVD-R,
DVD-RW, DVD+R or DVD+RW disc that has not been
finalized. Finalizing is a process that prepares a disc for
playback on a compatible device.
• Only use discs from a reputable manufacturer. Some discs
cannot be played back, depending on recording conditions and
disc characteristics.
• Do not use discs with non-standard shapes or sizes.
• Some DVD video or video CD discs may operate and function
differently than noted in this manual. That is by manufacturer
design and not a defect in this unit. For details read the
information on the disc jacket.
• This unit can play the disc types associated with the logos
shown on page 48. (Do not attempt to load any other type of
disc into the unit, or the unit may be damaged.)
• Some discs cannot be played depending on the recording
conditions such as PC environment and application software.
Failure can also result from disc characteristics and condition,
like material quality, scratches or curvature.
Handling a disc
• Do not touch the surface of the
disc. Hold a disc by its edge and
center hole.
• Do not leave a disc in the tray when
you are not playing it.
• Do not write on the disc with a pencil or other marker.
• Do not stick tape, seals or other attachments to a disc, and do
not bring into contact with glue.
• Do not use a protective cover to prevent scratches.
• Do not use a disc whose surface can be printed with a
commercially available label printer.
• Do not put a disc in a place with
direct sunlight, high
temperature, high humidity or a
lot of dust.
• If a disc becomes dirty, wipe it
with a clean, dry cloth from the
center out to the edge. Do not use
record cleaner or paint thinner.
• To avoid malfunction, do not use a
commercially available lens
cleaner.

Audio formatsAudio information
■ Dolby Digital
Dolby Digital is a digital surround sound system that gives
you completely independent multi-channel audio. With 3
front channels (left, center, and right), and 2 surround
stereo channels, Dolby Digital provides 5 full-range audio
channels. With an additional channel especially for bass
effects, called LFE (low frequency effect), the system has
a total of 5.1-channels (LFE is counted as 0.1 channel).
The DVD receiver downmixes the multi-channel audio to
2 channel so that you can enjoy Dolby Digital sources
easily.
■ Linear PCM (LPCM)
A signal that is changed to digital format without
compression. A CD is recorded with 16-bit sound at
44.1 kHz, while DVD recording is anywhere from 16 bits
at 48 kHz to 24 bits at 192 kHz, which makes it a higher
quality sound than CD. This signal also has a type called
Packed PCM (P.PCM) that can be compressed without any
loss of data.
■ Dynamic range
The difference between the smallest sound that can be
heard above the equipment noise and the biggest sound
that can be heard without distortion is the dynamic range.
■ Sampling frequency and quantized bit
rate
When converting an analog signal to digital, the number of
times the signal is sampled per second is called the
sampling frequency, while the degree of fineness when
converting the sound level into a numeric value is called
the quantized bit rate.
The frequency band that can be played back is determined
by the sampling rate, while the dynamic range expressing
the difference in sound level is determined by the
quantized bit rate. In principle, the higher the sampling
rate, the wider the frequency range that can be played
back, and the higher the quantized bit rate, the finer the
sound that can be reproduced.
■ Track (CD/Video CD)
A CD or Video CD can be divided into a number of
segments (tracks). Each division is called a title number.

GLOSSARY
■ Component video signal
With the component video signal system, the video signal
is separated into the Y signal for the luminance and the PB
R signals for the chrominance. Color can be
and P
reproduced more faithfully with this system because each
of these signals is independent. The component signal is
also called the “color difference signal” because the
luminance signal is subtracted from the color signal.
■ Decoder
A device that converts encoded data on DVD and other
media back to its original audio or video signal.
■ Film and video data
In general, DVD media can be classified into the 2 types
below.
• Film Data
Video recorded at 24 frames/second. (The film used for
shooting movies is recorded at 24 frames/second.)
Recently 30 frames/second progressive video has made
its debut.
•Video Data
Video recorded at 30 frames/second.
DVD receiver will automatically recognize whether the
source recorded on DVD is film or video, then select the
best method to convert it into progressive output.
■ Interlace and progressive outputs
Up to now the standard video signal has been NTSC with
525i (i: interlaced) scan lines. In contrast, 525p
(p: progressive) is a high-density signal with double the
number of scan lines.
■ NTSC
NTSC is a video signal system (525 lines, 30 frames per
second) used in North America, Central America, a
number of South American countries, and some Asian
countries, including Japan.

■ PA L
PAL is a video signal system (625 lines, 25 frames per
second) used in the United Kingdom, much of the rest of
western Europe, several South American countries, some
Middle East and Asian countries, several African
countries, Australia, New Zealand, and other Pacific
island countries.
■ Title, Chapter (DVD Video)
DVD video lets you divide a disc in a big way by titles or a
small way by chapters. Each division is either called a title
number or a chapter number.
