Before Use (Cont’d)

Precautions

Handling the unit

Shipping the unit

The original shipping carton and packing materials
come in handy. For maximum protection, re-pack the
unit as it was originally packed at the factory.

Setting a place for the unit

The picture and sound of a nearby TV, VCR, or radio
may be distorted during playback. In this case, position
the unit away from the TV, VCR, or radio, or turn off the
unit after removing the disc.

Keeping the cabinet surface clean

Do not use volatile liquids, such as insecticide spray,
near the unit. Do not leave rubber of plastic products in
contact with the unit for a long period of time. They will
leave marks on the surface.

Installing



Do not install the unit in a confined space, such as a
bookcase or built-in cabinet.



Allow adequate air circulation to prevent internal heat
buildup.



Do not place the unit on surfaces (rugs, blankets,
etc.) or near materials (curtains, draperies) that may
block the ventilation slots.



Do not install the unit near heat sources such as radi­ators or air ducts, or in a place subject to direct sun­light, excessive dust, mechanical vibration or shock.



Do not place heavy objects on the unit.

Cleaning the unit

To clean the cabinet

Use a soft, dry cloth. If the surfaces are extremely dirty,
use a soft cloth lightly moistened with a mild detergent
solution. Do not use strong solvents, such as alcohol,
benzine, or thinner, as these might damage the surface
of the unit.

To obtain a clear picture

The DVD receiver is a high-tech, precision device. If the
optical pick-up lens and disc drive parts are dirty or
worn down, the picture quality will be poor.
Regular inspection and maintenance are recommended
after every 1,000 hours of use. (This depends on the
operating environment.)
For details, please contact your nearest dealer.

Notes on Discs

Handling discs

Do not touch the playback side of the disc.
Hold the disc by the edges so that fingerprints will not
get on the surface.
Do not stick paper or tape on the disc.

Storing discs

After playing, store the disc in its case.
Do not expose the disc to direct sunlight or sources of
heat, or leave it in a parked car exposed to direct sun­light, as there may be a considerable temperature
increase inside the car.

Cleaning discs

Fingerprints and dust on the disc can cause poor pic­ture quality and sound distortion. Before playing, clean
the disc with a clean cloth. Wipe the disc from the cen­ter out.

Do not use strong solvents such as alcohol, benzine,
thinner, commercially available cleaners, or anti-static
spray intended for older vinyl records.

Speaker Positioning

• Center speaker

It is ideal that the center speakers and front speakers are
same height. But normally place it above or below the televi­sion as shown below.

• Rear speakers

Place left and right behind the listening area. These speak­ers recreate sound motion and atmosphere required for sur­round playback. For best results, do not install the rear
speakers too far behind the listening position, install them at
or above the level of the listener’s ears. It is also effective to
direct the rear speakers towards a wall or ceiling to further
disperse the sound.
In the case of a smaller room size, if the audience is near to
the rear wall set the rear speakers opposite each other, and
set the rear speakers 60 - 90 cm above the listener’s ears.

• Subwoofer

This can be placed in any front position.

Subwoofer

In the case of normal position use the 6 speakers (2 front speakers, center speaker, 2 rear speakers and subwoofer).
If you want to hear deeper bass sound, DTS digital surround or Dolby Digital surround, you should connect an optional
active subwoofer (has its own built-in amplifier).

• Front speakers

According to your listening position set up the speakers for equal distance. And by hearing position set up the interval
between speakers at 45 degree.

otes



Be sure to match the speaker cord to
the appropriate terminal on the com­ponents: + to + and – to –. If the
cords are reversed, the sound will be
distorted and lack bass.



If you use front speakers with low
maximum input rating, adjust the vol­ume carefully to avoid excessive vol­ume output to the speakers.



Do not disassemble the front covers
of supplied speakers.

Connect the speakers using the supplied
speaker cords by matching the colors of
the terminals and those of the cords. To
obtain the best possible surround sound,
adjust the speaker parameters (distance,
level, etc.).

If you feel there is a lack
of full bass sound

Connect an active subwoofer to
the WOOFER OUT connector
using a monaural audio cord
(not supplied). When you con­nect an active subwoofer, dis­connect the subwoofer from
the WOOFER speaker con­nector.

Mini Glossary for Sound Mode

Allows you to enjoy 5.1(or 6) discrete channels of high quality digital audio from DTS program sources bearing the trademark such as
discs, DVD and compact discs, etc. DTS Digital Surround delivers up to 6 channels of transparent audio(which means identical to the origi­nal masters) and results in exceptional clarity throughout a true 360 degree sound field. The term DTS is a trademark of DTS Technology,
LLC. Manufactured under license from DTS Technology, LLC.

The Dolby Digital surround format lets you enjoy up to 5.1 channels of digital surround sound from a Dolby Digital program source. If you
play DVDs with “” mark, you can enjoy even better sound quality, greater spatial accuracy, and improved dynamic range.

When playing recordings of live or classical music, this mode provides a feeling similar to actually being in a small concert hall.

When playing recordings of live or classical music, this mode provides a feeling similar to actually being in a large concert hall.

This mode provides a three dimensional effect similar to that of a movie theater.

(II)

Dolby Pro Logic II creates five full-bandwidth output channels from two-channel sources. This is done using an advanced, high-purity
matrix surround decoder that extracts the spatial properties of the original recording without adding any new sounds or tonal colorations.

EMULATION mode:

The Pro Logic Emulation mode offers users the same robust surround processing as original Pro Logic, in case the source content is not
of optimum quality, or if there is a desire to hear the program more “as it used to be.” When this mode is used, it is called Pro Logic, as
before. There is no “Pro Logic I” mode. The Pro Logic emulation mode is optional. Dolby does not require PLII products to use the origi­nal Pro Logic decoding algorithm. However, if the DSP contains the original Pro Logic code, and if the product maker would like to use it,
this is quite acceptable and even encouraged. A product must not offer both original Pro Logic and the Pro Logic emulation mode.

MOVIE mode:

The Movie mode is for use with stereo television shows and all programs encoded in Dolby Surround. The result is enhanced soundfield
directionality that approaches the quality of discrete 5.1-channel sound.

MUSIC mode:

The Music mode is for use with any stereo music recordings, and provides a wide and deep sound space. The Music mode includes
controls that allow the sound to be tailored to individual listening tastes.

VIRTUAL mode:

The Virtual mode is usually used when Pro Logic II is connected to a virtual process for speaker use. However, there might be some vir­tualizers for which this mode does not produce the intended result. For those virtualizers, Movie mode may give the best surround effect.
Virtual mode is designed to be used with the virtual process developed by Dolby Laboratories. The Pro Logic II mode should be called
only “Pro Logic II” so the Virtual name can be reserved to describe the speaker virtualization process itself.

MATRIX mode:

The Matrix mode is the same as the Music mode except that the directional enhancement logic is turned off. It may be used to enhance
mono signals by making them seem “larger.” The Matrix mode may also find use in auto systems, where the fluctuations from poor FM
stereo reception can otherwise cause disturbing surround signals from a logic decoder. The ultimate “cure” for poor FM stereo reception
may be simply to force the audio to mono.

SURROUND OFF (2CH STEREO)

Outputs the sound from the front left and right speakers and subwoofer. Standard two channel (stereo) sources completely bypass the
sound field processing. This allows you to play any source using only the front left and right speakers and subwoofer. You can select

SURROUND OFF by pressing BY-PASS on the remote control.

Speaker Sound Delay Time Setting

In Dolby Digital or Dolby Pro Logic mode it is assumed
that the distance from the listener to each of the speak­ers is equal. If not, then set the delay times of the cen­ter or rear speakers so that the sound will be heard
simultaneously by the listener.
The interval from the speakers to the listener. If the dis­tance from the listener to each speaker is the same, in
the Dolby Digital and Dolby Pro Logic mode, the delay
time of each speakers is as follows.

In Dolby Digital mode

Center delay time : 0 ms
Rear delay time: 5 ms

In Dolby Pro Logic mode

Center delay time : cannot set
Rear delay time : 15-30 ms
If the rear delay time is set in Dolby Digital mode, in the
Dolby Pro Logic mode, the delay time is set automatical­ly.
The delay time is 1 ms per 30 cm.
If the center and rear speakers are further than the front
speakers from the listener, the delay time will be at min­imum.

Surround delay time setting

If the distance of DS is equal to or longer than the DF in
the left figure, set the Surround Delay Time as 0 ms.
Otherwise, change the setting according to the table
below.
Ex) If the distance from front speakers to the listener is
3 m and from rear speakers from the listener is 1.5 m,
in the Dolby Digital mode, the rear delay time is 5 ms.
3 m (D

F) - 1.5 m (DS) = 1.5 m (B)

1.5 m (B) = 150 cm / 30 cm = 5 ms

In Dolby Pro Logic II (Surround delay time):

 Emulation: 10 ~ 25 ms
 Movie: 10 ~ 25 ms
 Music: 0 ~ 15 ms
 Virtual: cannot set
 Matrix: 0 ~ 15 ms

Center delay time setting (Dolby Digital mode only)

If the distance of DF is equal to the distance of DC in
the figure shown above, set the Center Delay Time as 0
ms. Otherwise, change the setting according to the fol­lowing table.
Ex) If the distance from the front speakers to the listen­er is 3 m and from the center speaker to the listener is

2.4 m, the center delay time is 2 ms.
3 m (DF) - 2.4 m (DC) = 60 cm (A)
60 cm (A) / 30 cm = 2 ms

Setting the Delay Time in Dolby
Digital and Dolby Pro Logic (II) mode

If setting is complete, press DELAY.

ote

You can adjust the center delay time only in the Dolby Digital
mode and its delay time appears.

Center Width (MUSIC mode of Dolby Pro Logic II only)

This control allows center-channel sounds to be posi­tioned between the center speaker and the left/right
speakers over a range of eight steps. Step “3” uses a
combination of all three front speakers to give the best
vocal imaging and most seamless soundstage presen­tation, and is recommended for most recordings. Step

“0” places all center sound in the center speaker. Step
“7” places all center sound equally in the left/right

speakers, just as in conventional stereo.

DIMENSE (MUSIC mode of Dolby Pro Logic II only)

This control allows the user to gradually adjust the
soundfield either towards the front or the rear. This can
be useful to help achieve the desired balance from all
the speakers with certain recordings that may contain
either too much or too little spatial effect. Step “0” is the
recommended setting, which has no effect on the
sound. Steps 1, 2, and 3 gradually move the sound for­ward, and steps –1, –2, and –3 move the sound
towards the surrounds.

PANORAMA (MUSIC mode of Dolby Pro Logic II only)

This control extends the front stereo image to include
the surround speakers for an exciting “wraparound”
effect with side-wall imaging. It is particularly effective
for recordings which have strong left- or right-channel
elements in the mix, as these are detected and accen­tuated by the Panorama process.

Notes on MP3 Discs

About MP3



An MP3 file is audio data compressed by using
MPEG1, the audio layer-3 file-coding scheme. We call
files that have the “.mp3” file extension “MP3 files”.



The player can not read an MP3 file that has a file
extension other than “.mp3”.



The player can not read a fake MP3 file that has a
file extension “.mp3”.

MP3 disc compatible with this player is limited
as follows:

1. Sampling Frequency / only at 44.1kHz

2. Bit rate / within 96 - 192kbps

3. CD-R physical format should be “ISO 9660”

4. If you record MP3 files using the software which
cannot create a FILE SYSTEM, for example “Direct­CD” etc., it is impossible to playback MP3 files. We
therefore recommend that you use “Easy-CD
Creator”, which creates an ISO9660 file system.

5. A single session disc requires MP3 files in the first
track. If there is no MP3 file in the 1st track, it can­not playback MP3 files. If you wish to playback MP3
files, format all the data in the disc or use a new
one.

6. We do not recommend using CD-RW discs. Please
use finished CD-R discs only.

7. File names should be named using 8 letters or less
and must incorporate “.mp3” extension
e.g. “********.MP3”.

8. Do not use special letters such as “_?!><+*}{`[@
]:;\/.,” etc.

9. Total number of files on the disc should be less than

200.

10. Use 74 minute CD-R discs (650M), Do not use 80
minute CD-R (700M) software

This DVD receiver requires discs/recordings to meet
certain technical standards in order to achieve optimal
playback quality. Pre-recorded DVDs are automatically
set to these standards. There are many different types
of recordable disc formats (including CD-R containing
MP3 files).

Customers should also note that permission is required
in order to download MP3 files and music from the
Internet. Our company has no right to grant such per­mission. Permission should always be sought from the
copyright owner.
