• Do not mix new batteries with old batteries or differ-
ent kinds of batteries.
• To avoid corrosion, remove the batteries if the re-
mote controller is not to be used for a long time.
• Remove dead batteries immediately to avoid dam-
age from corrosion. If the remote controller does not
operate smoothly, replace both the batteries at the
same time.
• The life of the batteries supplied is about six months
but this will vary depending on usage.
Using the remote controller
Point the remote controller toward the remote control
sensor. The STANDBY indicator lights up when the unit
receives a signal from the remote controller.

Notes:
• Place the unit away from strong light such as direct
sunlight or inverted fluorescent light which can pre-
vent proper operation of the remote controller.
• Using another remote controller of the same type in
the same room or using the unit near equipment
which uses infrared rays may cause operational in-
terference.

• Do not put objects on the remote controller. The
buttons of the remote controller may be pressed by
mistake and drain the batteries.
Approx. 5 meters
• Make sure the audio rack doors do not have col-
ored glass. Placing the unit behind such doors may
prevent proper remote controller operation.
• If there is any obstacle between the remote control-
ler and the remote control sensor, the remote con-
troller will not operate.

Memory preservation
This unit does not require memory preservation bat-
teries. A built-in memory power backup system pre-
serves the contents of the memory during power
failures and even when the POWER switch is set to
off. The POWER switch must be set to on in order to
charge the backup system.
The memory preservation period after the unit has
been turned off varies depending on climate and
placement of the unit. On the average, memory
contents are protected over a period of a few
weeks after the last time the unit has been turned
off. This period is shorter when the unit is exposed to
a highly humid climate.

Rear panel facilities
Here is an explanation of the terminals found on the
rear of the DTR-9.1 and how they are used. Before con-
necting your audio and video components, be sure to
read this section carefully and then proceed to the ex-
planations on how to connect each individual compo-
nent (see pages 16).
• Be sure to always refer to the instructions that came
with the component that you are connecting.
• Do not plug in the power cord until all connections
have been made.
• For input jacks, red connectors (marked R) are used
for the right channel, white connectors (marked L)
are used for the left channel, and yellow connectors
(marked V) are used for video connection.
• Insert all plugs and connectors securely. Improper
connections can result in noise, poor performance,
or damage to the equipment.

• When using the digital inputs and outputs, make
sure to also connect the analog connections when-
ever possible.
• When using one of the optical input or output jacks,
remove the protective cap and keep it safely.
When the jack is not used, replace the protective
cap.
ANTENNA
These jacks are for connecting the FM indoor antenna
and AM loop antenna that are supplied with the DTR-
9.1.
AMP IN
• When using an optical input or output jack, always
use an optical fiber cable.
These jacks are for connecting a graphic equalizer for
further control of the audio output.
• When connecting a graphic equalizer, remove the
attached jumper plugs and store them carefully so
as not to lose them.
• Only remove the jumper plugs when required. After
you finish using an AMP IN jack, replace the jumper
plug.
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 DTR-9.1. The DTR-
9.1 has three component video input connectors to
obtain the color information (Y, PB, PR) 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 di-
rectly, the DVD signal forgoes the extra processing that
normally would degrade the image. The result is vastly
increased image quality, with incredibly lifelike colors
and crisp detail.
PRE OUT
These jacks are for connecting auxiliary power amplifi-
ers.
• When connecting auxiliary power amplifiers, re-
move the attached jumper plugs and store them
carefully so as not to lose them.
• Only remove the jumper plugs when required. After
you finish using a PRE OUT jack, replace the jumper
plug.

video monitor connected to MONITOR OUT 2).
AC OUTLETS
The DTR-9.1 is supplied with two AC mains outlets for
connecting the power cords from other devices so that
their power is supplied through the DTR-9.1. By doing
this, you can use the STANDBY/ON button on the DTR-
9.1 to turn on and off the connected devices as well.
DIGITAL INPUT/OUTPUT
(coaxial, optical, and input-only AC-3RF)
These are the digital audio inputs and outputs. There
are 5 digital inputs with coaxial jacks, 3 with optical
jacks, and 1 AC-3RF input. The inputs accept digital
audio signals from a compact disc, LD, DVD, or other

If the DVD player or MPEG decoder that you are con-
necting to is provided with DB-25-to-DB-25 cable, then
connect that directly to the DTR-9.1 and do not use the
cable supplied with the DTR-9.1.
When connecting the cable, be sure to secure the
locking screws on the DB-25 connectors.
• Do not use a power cord other than the one sup-
plied with the DTR-9.1. The power cord supplied is
designed for use with the DTR-9.1 and should not be
used with any other device.
• Never have the power cord disconnected from the
DTR-9.1 while the other end is plugged into the wall
outlet. Doing so may cause an electric shock. Al-
ways connect by plugging into the wall outlet last
and disconnect by unplugging from the wall outlet
first.
RS 232
The RS 232 port is to be used in conjunction with an ex-
ternal controller to control the operation of the DTR-9.1
by using an external device. The RS 232 port may also
be used in the future to update the operating software
of the DTR-9.1 so that it will be able to support new digi-
tal audio formats and the like as they are introduced.
MULTI CHANNEL INPUT
By connecting a DVD player, MPEG decoder, or other
component that has a multi channel port, you can
playback the audio with 5.1 channel or 7.1 channel
output. So, be sure to prepare a cable that can prop-
erly connect the DTR-9.1 to the peripheral device.

z (RI)
These are the video inputs and outputs. There are 6
video inputs and 2 video outputs and each one in-
cludes both composite video and S-video configura-
tions. Connect VCRs, LD players, DVD players, and
other video components to the video inputs. S-video
sources can be viewed via the S-video or composite
outputs, while composite sources can only be viewed
through the composite output.
By connecting the z connector as shown in the dia-
gram below, you can use the RC-418M remote control-
ler to operate Integra/Onkyo cassette tape decks and
compact disc players that also have Integra/Onkyo’s
z connectors. Simply connect a remote control cable
from this connector to the z connector of the cas-
sette tape deck or compact disc player. An z remote
control cable with a 3.5-mm (1/8-inch) miniature two-
conductor plug comes with every cassette tape deck
and compact disc player that has an z connector.
The 2 video output channels can be used to be con-
nected to video tape recorders for making recordings.
• For remote control operation, the audio connection
cables must also be connected.

Connecting your audio components
4. Connecting an MD recorder, DAT deck, or CD
recorder
Using an RCA-type audio connection cable, connect
the output terminals (PLAY) of the device to the TAPE 1
IN jacks on the DTR-9.1 and the input terminals (REC) to
the TAPE 1 OUT jacks. Make sure that you properly con-
nect the left channel to the L jack and the right chan-
nel to the R jack.
Below is an example of how you can connect your
audio components to the DTR-9.1. Refer to the diagram
on pages 16 and 17 for the following connection
examples.
If the device has a digital output jack as well, be sure to
also connect it to either a DIGITAL INPUT (COAXIAL) or
DIGITAL INPUT (OPTICAL) jack on the DTR-9.1 depend-
ing on the type of connector on the device.
With the initial settings of the DTR-9.1, the TAPE 1 input
source is set for digital input at the OPTICAL 1 jack. If the
digital connection is made at a different jack, this must
be changed at the OSD Menu: Input Setup → Digital
Setup → Digital Input (see page 34).
If the device also has a digital input jack, it can be con-
nected to the DIGITAL OUTPUT (COAXIAL) or DIGITAL
OUTPUT (OPTICAL) jack on the DTR-9.1 for recording of
the signal from the input source selected at the DTR-9.1.

Using an RCA-type audio connection cable, connect
the output terminal on the turntable to the PHONO IN
jacks on the DTR-9.1. Make sure that you properly con-
nect the left channel to the L jack and the right chan-
nel to the R jack.
Note:
The DTR-9.1 is designed for use with moving magnet
cartridges. For proper operation, connect a ground (or
earth) wire to the GND terminal. For some turntables,
however, connecting the ground wire may cause in-
creased noise, and in such a case, a ground wire is not
necessary and should not be connected.

Below is an example of how you can connect your
video components to the DTR-9.1. Refer to the diagram
on pages 16 and 17 for the following connection
examples.
The flow of the video signals is as follows: the signal that
comes in from VIDEO IN is sent to VIDEO OUT, the signal
that comes in from S-VIDEO IN is sent to S-VIDEO OUT
and VIDEO OUT, and the signal that comes in from
COMPONENT VIDEO IN is sent to COMPONENT VIDEO
OUT.
If only the video connection for the MONITOR OUT is
made, even if the input from each source component
is through a component video connection, the picture
will not appear. If only the S-video connection for the
MONITOR OUT is made, the picture will not appear.
3. Connecting a cassette tape deck, MD
recorder, DAT deck, or CD recorder
Using an RCA-type audio connection cable, connect
the output terminals (PLAY) of the device to the TAPE 2
IN jacks on the DTR-9.1 and the input terminals (REC) to
the TAPE 2 OUT jacks. Make sure that you properly con-
nect the left channel to the L jack and the right chan-
nel to the R jack.
If the device has a digital output jack as well, be sure to
also connect it to either a DIGITAL INPUT (COAXIAL) or
DIGITAL INPUT (OPTICAL) jack on the DTR-9.1 depend-
ing on the type of connector on the device.
With the initial settings of the DTR-9.1, the TAPE 2 input
source is set for digital input at the OPTICAL 2 jack. If the
digital connection is made at a different jack, this must
be changed at the OSD Menu: Input Setup → Digital
Setup → Digital Input (see page 34).

Connecting speakers
Before connecting the speakers, place them correctly
by consulting the instruction manuals that came with
them.
Speaker placement
Ideal speaker placement varies depending on the size
of your room and the wall coverings. Here, only typical
example of speaker placement and recommenda-
tions are shown.
For surround playback, the configuration and place-
ment of your speakers are very important.
For THX surround EX playback, we recommend that you
use a THX speaker system that is certified by Lucasfilm
Ltd.
Important points regarding speaker placement
Ideal speaker configuration
Front left and right speakers and center speaker
• Place these three speakers at the same height from
the floor.
• Place each speaker so that sound is aimed at the
location of the listener’s ears when at the listening
position.
• Front right and left speakers
• Center speaker
Produces a rich sound image by serving as a sound
source for the front right and left speakers and en-
hancing the sonic movement.
Surround left and right speakers
• Place these speakers so that their height is 1 meter
higher than that of the listener’s ears.
• Surround right and left speakers
Adds three-dimensional sonic movement and pro-
duces environmental sound associated with the
background and effect sound for each scene.
• Surround back right and left speakers
Required for enjoying THX Surround EX audio.
• Subwoofer
Surround back left and right speakers
• These speakers are required for enjoying THX Sur-
round EX audio.
• Place these speakers behind the listener so that the
angle between each speaker and the listener is ap-
proximately 30 degrees.
Produces powerful and heavy bass.
• Place these speakers so that their height is 1 meter
higher than that of the listener’s ears.
Minimum speaker configuration for surround
sound playback

Most dipoles have an arrow on them to indicate their
orientation towards the screen. So for the side dipoles,
the arrows point forward. For the back dipoles, the ar-
rows should point towards each other to achieve the
correct acoustical phasing in the room.

Assembling the AM loop antenna
Connecting the FM indoor antenna:
Assemble the loop antenna as shown in the illustration.
The FM indoor antenna is for indoor use only. During
use, extend the antenna and move it in various direc-
tions until the clearest signal is received. Fix it with push
pins or similar implements in the position that will cause
the least amount of distortion.
• Refer to the next page for details on connecting the
AM loop antenna.
If the reception is not very clear with the attached FM
indoor antenna, the use of an outdoor antenna is rec-
ommended.
Connecting the AM loop antenna:
The AM loop antenna is for indoor use only. Set it in the
direction and position where you receive the clearest
sound. Put it as far away as possible from the DTR-9.1,
televisions, speaker cables, and power cords.
When reception is not satisfactory with the attached
AM loop antenna alone, connection of an outdoor
antenna is recommended.
Insert into the hole.

Connecting antennas
Connecting an FM outdoor antenna
Please make sure that you follow the considerations:
Directional linkage
Do not use the same antenna for both FM and TV (or
VCR) reception since the FM and TV (or VCR) signals
can interfere with each other. If you must use a
common FM/TV (or VCR) antenna, use a directional
linkage type splitter.
• Keep the antenna away from noise sources (neon
signs, busy roads, etc.).
• It is dangerous to put the antenna close to power
lines. Keep it well away from power lines, transform-
ers, etc.
• To avoid the risk of lightning and electrical shock,
grounding is necessary. Follow item 14 of the “Im-
portant Safeguards” on page 2 when you install the
outdoor antenna.

Speaker Setup
Notes:
1-3. Level Calibration sub-menu
• Speakers that you selected “No” or “None” for in
the Speaker Config sub-menu will not appear.
• To accurately set the output levels, it is recom-
mended to use a handheld sound pressure level
(SPL) meter. Set the meter to C-weighting and slow
averaging. A Radio Shack® SPL meter or equivalent
is recommended. Using the internal channel noise
generators, set each channel so that you read a 75
decibel sound pressure level.
Here you will set the volume for each speaker so that
they are all heard by the listener at the same level. This
is especially important for speaker layouts where the
left and right speakers are at different distances or in
asymmetrical positions due to room designs and
configurations. These settings and the distance settings
performed above are vital to create the proper
acoustics required for the optimum sound space and
dynamics.
a. Left
Sound comes from the front left speaker. Adjust the
sound level between -12 and 12 decibels in 0.5-decibel
intervals.
Note:
The speaker level settings here are not effective for
multi-channel input sources. To adjust the speaker lev-
els for multi-channel input sources, you will need to use
the CH SEL, LEVEL+, and LEVEL- buttons on the RC-418M
remote controller. See page 53.
b. Center
Sound comes from the center speaker. Adjust the
sound level between -12 and 12 decibels in 0.5-decibel

Calibrating the speaker levels
(1) When this sub-menu is entered, the DTR-9.1 will emit
a pink noise from the front left speaker. At this time,
the master volume automatically increases to the
reference level (0dB). Remember the level of this
noise and then press the DOWN cursor button.
(Note that this can be adjusted to any level be-
tween -12 and 12 decibels in 0.5-decibel intervals.)
The DTR-9.1 will now emit the pink noise from the
center speaker.
f. Surr Bk L
Sound comes from the surround back left speaker. Ad-
just the sound level between -12 and 12 decibels in 0.5-
decibel intervals.
• If “None” was selected for the Surround Back setting
in the Speaker Config sub-menu, then this setting will
not appear.
(2) Using the and cursor buttons, adjust the volume
level of the noise from the center speaker so that it is
the same level as the front left speaker. You can jog
back and forth between the speakers to help you
compare the volume levels.
g. Surr Left
Sound comes from the surround left speaker. Adjust the
sound level between -12 and 12 decibels in 0.5-decibel
intervals.
• If “None” was selected for the Surround L/R setting
in the Speaker Config sub-menu, then this setting will
not appear.
(3) Press the cursor button again. The DTR-9.1 will now
emit the pink noise from the front right speaker.
h. Subwoofer
Sound comes from the subwoofer. Adjust the sound
level between -15 and 12 decibels in 0.5-decibel inter-
vals.
(4) Repeat steps (2) and (3) above for the front right
and other speakers until all speakers are adjusted to
the same volume level.
• If “No” was selected for the Subwoofer setting in the
Speaker Config sub-menu, then this setting will not
appear.

Input Setup
2. Input Setup menu
2-1. Digital Setup sub-menu
This menu allows you to setup the various input sources
available with the DTR-9.1. Each input source may
have a great number of settings that are difficult to
keep track of, so we recommend making a chart to
record what you have set and for which component to
prevent confusion later.
The settings made in this sub-menu are valid for the
input source that is currently selected with the input
source buttons at the front panel and, therefore, these
settings are made separately for each digital input
source. This sub-menu will not appear if the
Multichannel setting in the Multichannel Setup sub-
menu is set to “On” for the selected input source, or if
the selected input source button is AM, FM, or PHONO.
If this setting is incorrectly made, the digital audio
signals may not be properly output, or not heard at all.

Input Setup
Auto: Select for automatic detection of the input signal
format. The input signal format (Dolby Digital, DTS,
MPEG, PCM or Analog) used by the selected input
source is detected automatically to execute the re-
quired decoding process. If no digital signal is input,
the input signals to the analog input jacks will be
played.
AC-3RF: Select if a LD player with an AC-3RF terminal is
connected to the AC-3RF input on the DTR-9.1. AC-
3RF can only be selected if VIDEO 4 is selected as
the input source.
Digital: Select for automatic detection of a digital input
signal format. The input digital signal format (Dolby
Digital, DTS, MPEG, or PCM) used by the selected
digital input source is detected automatically to ex-
ecute the necessary decoding process.
DTS: Select for DTS signal processing. The decoding pro-
cess is executed only when DTS signals are input.
PCM: Select for PCM signal processing. The decoding
process is executed only when PCM signals are in-
put.
Notes on DTS:
• If you play a CD or LD that supports DTS when the
“PCM” setting is selected on the DTR-9.1, the DTS
encoded signal will not be decoded and noise will
be output. This noise could damage the amplifier
and speakers. Therefore, be sure to selected
“Auto,” “Digital,” or “DTS” and use the digital input
jacks (OPTICAL or COAXIAL) to connect the DTS
source.
• If you play a CD or LD that supports DTS when the
“Auto” or “Digital” setting is selected, you may hear
a noise for a short while until the DTS decoder recog-
nizes the DTS-encoded signal and starts operating.
This is not a malfunction.
• If you press the PAUSE or SKIP button on the player
while playing a DTS source, a short noise may be
heard. This is not a malfunction. In such cases, try
playing the source in the “DTS” selected.
• The DTS indicator on the DTR-9.1 lights while a DTS
source is played. When playback finishes and the
DTS signal transmission stops, the DTR-9.1 remains in
DTS mode and the DTS indicator remains lit. This pre-
vents noise when you operate the PAUSE or SKIP
button on the player. Therefore, if the source is im-
mediately switched from DTS to PCM, the PCM sig-
nal may not be played. In this case, stop the play-
back of the source on the player for about three
seconds and then resume playback.
• You may not be able to play some DTS source sig-
nals from certain CD players and LD players even if
you connect the player to the DTR-9.1 digitally. This
is because the digital signal has been processed
(such as the output level, sampling frequency, or
frequency response) and the DTR-9.1 cannot recog-
nize the signal as DTS data. Therefore you may hear
noise when you play a DTS source while processing
the signal.
Analog: Regardless of whether the component is also
digitally connected, the audio signals input from the
component through the analog input jacks are
played.
Notes:
• If “Auto” or “Digital” is selected and a compact disc
or LD is fast-forwarded during playback, decoded
PCM signals may produce a skipping sound. In such
cases, change the setting to “PCM.”
• If a compact disc or LD encoded in the DTS format is
played back with “PCM” selected, only noise will be
produced. Always select “Auto,” “Digital,” or “DTS”
when playing back DTS-encoded sources.
• The outputs for the VIDEO 1 OUT, VIDEO 2 OUT, TAPE
1 OUT, and TAPE 2 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.

this allows you to play the music from a compact disc,
while displaying the picture from a video cassette
player or other video source. Since the settings in this
sub-menu are also linked to the input source that is cur-
rently selected at the front panel, a different setting

Input Setup
* The 5.1-channel digital surround format has a vari-
ety of versions including Dolby Digital, DTS, and
MPEG. The 5.1- channel digital surround format en-
ables you to individually record and play five full-
range (20Hz-20kHz) channels (left and right front,
center, two surround channels) plus an LFE channel
(Low Frequency Effect)for the low-range effect
sound. It will create a realistic sound that could be
heard in the theaters and concert halls.
2-4. Listening Mode Preset sub-menu
With the DTR-9.1, you can set a different listening mode
for each different signal type that comes from each
input source and also set the parameters for the
listening mode itself. For example, if your DVD player
also plays compact discs and the DVD video signal is
DTS and the compact disc signal is PCM, then you can
set a different listening mode for each.
This is especially convenient if you frequently play the
same types of movies or music.
Note that some listening modes cannot be set for some
input sources. In addition, if “Yes” is set for multi channel
for the input source selected, then the listening mode
cannot be set. Also, if the “----” is set for the Digital Input
setting in the Digital Setup sub-menu, then you can only
select “Analog/PCM.”

Listening Modes
a. Analog/PCM
Mono
Analog sources consist of LP records, AM and FM
broadcasts, cassette tapes, and the such. PCM (Pulse
Code Modulation) is one form of digital audio signals
and is recorded directly onto compact discs and DVDs
without compression.
This mode is for listening to the left and right channels
separately. This mode also allows you to listen to the
multiplexed soundtracks on DVDs, and other media
that have them.
Stereo
b. PCM fs > 48 k
This mode has all input sound is output from the left and
right front speakers.
Digital PCM sources that are recorded at a sampling
rate of greater than 48 kilohertz. This includes compact
discs and DVDs that are recorded with high quality au-
dio.
Direct
This mode delivers pure sound with minimum sound
quality adjustment and filtration. The sound recorded
for the right and left front channels is output to the right
and left front speakers only and not output to the
subwoofer.
c. PCM fs = 192 k
Digital PCM sources that are recorded at a sampling
rate of greater than 192 kilohertz. This includes com-
pact discs and DVDs that are recorded with extremely
high quality audio.
Dolby D (Dolby Digital)

fore recorded for 5.1-channel output. This source also
comes from digital satellite broadcasts that support
Dolby Digital.
DTS Film
This mode is for listening to cinema DTS sources in their
plain format.
Dial norm
Dialogue Normalization (Dial Norm) is feature of
Dolby Digital. When playing back software that has
been encoded in Dolby Digital, sometimes you may
see a brief message in the front panel display that
read Dial Norm xdB (“x” being a numeric value).
Dialogue Normalization serves to let you know if the
source material has been recorded at a higher or
lower level than usual. For example, if you see the
message “Dial Norm: +4” in the front panel display,
to keep the overall output level constant just turn
down the volume control by 4dB. In other words, the
source material that you are listening to has been
recorded 4dB louder than usual. If you do not see a
message, then no adjustment of the volume control
is necessary.
MPEG
This mode is for listening to music MPEG sources in their
plain format.
MPEG Film
This mode is for listening to cinema MPEG sources in
their plain format.
THX (THX Cinema)
Movies that have been encoded in Dolby Digital, DTS,
MPEG, and Dolby Pro Logic can all benefit by activat-
ing the THX mode. THX should be activated only when
watching movies that were mixed for playback in large
movie theater environments. THX need not be acti-
vated for music, for movies that were made especially
for television, or for shows such as sports programming,
talk shows, and the like. This is because they were
mixed in a small room environment.
DOLBY DIGITAL
For best results, use a THX certified speaker system.

When the THX listening mode is selected, you can
press the THX button on the remote controller to
cycle through the settings “Auto,” “On,” and “Off.”
When “Auto” is selected, if a Surround EX encoded
source is input, it is automatically played in the THX
Surround EX mode. When “On” is selected, all sur-
round EX encoded sources and THX Surround EX
playable sources (i.e., DTS-ES encoded sources) are
played in the THX Surround EX mode. If the sound
does not feel correct, set this to “Off.”
LDs that have the

If “On” is selected and a source that cannot be
played in the THX Surround EX mode, “THXCinema”
appears in the front display. If “Off” is selected, the
listening mode becomes THX Cinema.

ing Dolby Pro Logic.
THX Surround EX can only be selected if the surround
back speakers are connected.
Pro Logic Action (Dolby Pro Logic Action)
THX Surround EX
When listening to movies using the Dolby Pro Logic, this
mode allows you to further enhance the cinematic
quality by adding processing that emphasizes the
sounds of the action special effects.
“THX Surround EX - Dolby Digital Surround EX” is a joint
development of Dolby Laboratories and the THX divi-
sion of Lucasfilm Ltd.
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 localiza-
tion than ever before.
When released to the home consumer market, movies
that were created using the Dolby Digital Surround EX
technology, may have a note to that effect on the
packaging. A list of movies created using this technol-
ogy can be found on the Dolby web site at http://
Only receiver and controller products bearing the
THX Surround EX logo, when in the THX Surround EX
mode, faithfully reproduce this new technology in
the home.
This product may also engage the “THX Surround EX”
mode during the playback of 5.1 channel material
that is not Dolby Digital Surround EX encoded. In such
case the information delivered to the Surround Back
channel will be program dependent and may or
may not be very pleasing depending on the particu-
lar soundtrack and the tastes of the individual lis-
tener.
Pro Logic Musical (Dolby Pro Logic Musical)
When listening to music using the Dolby Pro Logic, this
mode allows you to further enhance the sound quality
by adding processing that emphasizes the musical ef-
fects.
Mono Movie
This mode is suitable for playing back monaural record-
ing such as old movie soundtracks. The center channel
delivers the unprocessed original sound, whereas the
other channels deliver the center-channel sound pro-
cessed with the appropriate reverberation. This allows
you to enjoy monaural sound with the atmosphere of a
movie theater.
T-D (Theater-Dimensional)
For the best enjoyment of your home theater, it is rec-
ommended that you have at least front left and right
speakers, a center speaker, and surround left and right
speakers. However, if you do only have front left and
right speakers, you can enjoy multichannel audio by
using this mode.
This mode controls the characteristics of the sound that
reaches each ear to reproduce a multi-speaker setup.
To receive the full effect, there is an optimum listening
position (sweet spot). Refer to the explanation of the
listening angle. In addition, if the reflective sound com-
ponents are large, it may be difficult to achieve the
desired result, so be sure to set up your system and lis-
tening position to minimize reflective sound.
Action
Enhanced 7
This mode is designed for movie soundtracks that stress
special effect sounds and surround effects. In addition
to strengthening the low frequency ranges for the front
left, front right, and surround speakers, it also increases
the surround levels. Resonance is also cut for a movie-
theater feeling and increased enjoyment.
Enhanced 7 intends to reproduce a natural surround
environment by using 7-channel speakers. The sound
effects moving smoothly toward the surround back.
This mode is good for music and TV sports programs.
Orchestra
This mode is appropriate for classical and opera music.
The center channel is cut and the surround channels
are emphasized to widen the stereo image. It will simu-
late the natural reverberation that is created in large
halls.
Musical
This mode is designed for watching musicals and movie
soundtracks where importance is placed on the music.
By slightly increasing the mid to high frequency ranges
from the center speaker, the vocals from the screen
seem highlighted for added listening pleasure. This
mode is optimum for playing software that stresses mu-
sic, environmental sounds, and the front image.
TV Logic
This mode gives realistic acoustics to TV programs that
are aired from TV studios. It enhances the entire sur-
round sound and clarity of the conversation.
Pro Logic/3 Stereo (Dolby Pro Logic/3 Stereo)
This mode is for listening to recordings with Dolby sur-
round, which consists of four channels (left, right, cen-
ter, and monaural surround) and emphasizes the cen-
ter channel. Dolby Pro Logic is very effective for pan-
ning music, conversation, and three-dimensional
sound movement output from the three front channels.
It also simulates the atmosphere and surround effects
of the sound reflected from the side and rear walls of
the theater. Select this listening mode when you play a
VHS, VHS hi-fi, LD, or DVD video that has the
mark.
Unplugged
This mode is suitable for acoustical instrumental sounds,
vocals, and jazz music. By emphasizing the front stereo
image, it will simulate the acoustics that you would ex-
perience in front of the stage.
Studio-Mix
This mode is for rock and popular music. The lively
sounds are enhanced for a powerful acoustic image
that simulates the feeling of being in a club or rock con-
cert.
If no surround speakers are connected, then the sur-
round sound is divided and output from the front left
and right channels.(3 Stereo)
All Ch Stereo
This mode is designed for playing background music.
The front, surround, and surround back channels cre-
ate a stereo image that encompasses the entire area.

a. A/V Sync
If a digital signal processor is connected, there may be
times when the audio and video from a DVD or LD
player is not output in perfect sync. The result is where
the sound and picture do not match and the sound is
heard too early. In such a case, use this setting to prop-
erly synchronize the audio and video. This setting can
be set between 0 to 30 ms in 0.5-ms increments. Under
normal circumstances, this can left at 0 ms. For input
sources using the multi channel port, this setting will not
appear.
b. Treble
Press the cursor button to decrease the treble sounds
and press the
cursor button to increase the treble
sounds. The treble can be adjusted between -12 and
+12 decibels in two steps.
b. Relative Delay
Besides level and delay adjustments, the DTR-9.1
provides the ability to change or adjust the relative
speaker position to fine tune the soundfield for the
listener. This is accomplished using Integra’s unique
Enhanced Spatial Positioning Algorithm. This
adjustment provides 10 milliseconds of delay for the
speakers, which is equivalent to moving the speaker 10
feet away. This adjustment is set up to provide -4 or +6
milliseconds (-4 or +6 feet) of adjustment to the
listener’s position.
Once the coarse adjustments-speaker level and dis-
tance adjustments-are made, the system is set up to
provide a typical or broad surround environment. By
adjusting the relative position of the speakers, we are
able to alter the soundfield to be more spread out
(deeper) or focused (shallower).

Listening Mode Setup
Surround Speakers
Description listening mode parameters
This setting allows you to decide through which speak-
ers to output the sound meant for the surround speak-
ers during 5.1-channel output when seven speakers are
connected to the DTR-9.1.
Subwoofer
Set this to “Off” if you are not using a subwoofer (even if
one is connected). If “No” is selected for the Subwoofer
setting in the Speaker Config sub-menu, then this set-
ting will not appear.
Surround L/R: This outputs the sound to the surround
left and right speakers as normal and outputs noth-
ing to the surround back left and right speakers.
Surround Back: This outputs the sound to the sur-
round back left and right speakers and outputs
nothing to the surround left and right speakers.
Sur L/R+Back: This outputs the sound to both the sur-
round left and right speakers and the surround back
left and right speakers.
Re-EQ/Academy
Depending on the listening mode, you can either turn
Re-EQ on or off, or you can select “Re-EQ,” “Acad-
emy,” or “Off.”
Re-EQ: Re-EQ (re-equalization) takes the edginess
or “brightness” out of your home cinema sound to
compensate for the fact that sound mixed for the-
aters may sound too bright when played back
through speakers in the home environment.
Academy: Older monaural film mixes relied on high-
frequency rolloff in presentation to sound properly
balanced, so that excessive hiss from the grain
structure of the film would not be heard. The high-
frequency loss was typically due to a combination
of optical slit loss, electrical filters, loudspeaker re-
sponse, and screen loss. Some films have been
transferred to video without such a high-frequency
rolloff, and thus sound overly bright and hissy. The
DTR-9.1 includes this “Academy filter,” which is
based on contemporary playback practices for
such films over wide-range systems.
Front Effect
Some live recordings contain acoustic reverberation.
When you play these sources, more reverberation will
be applied by the DSP, creating too much reverb ef-
fects and the sound loses frame or presence. In this
case, set this setting to “Off.” No reverberation from the
DSP will be applied to the sound output from the three
front channels, so the sound source is be played as it is
without any further reverberation.
Reflect Lvl
This parameter allows you to adjust the strength of di-
rect sound reflections to match the playback source
material, the acoustics of your room, and such other
factors. This can be set between -5 and +5 decibels in
1-decibel increments.
On: Select to turn on the Re-EQ.
Off: Select to turn off both the re-equalization and
Academy filters.
Reverb Lvl
This parameter allows you to adjust the depth of acous-
tic reverberation to match the playback source mate-
rial, the acoustics of your room, and such other factors.
This can be set between -5 and +5 decibels in 1-decibel
increments.
Input Channel
This allows you to set which input channel to use for
monaural sound.
Auto L+R: Select this under normal circumstances for
output from both the left and right speakers.
Left/Right: You will need to select either left or right
when playing a video source that contains bilingual
data. In such a case, the left and right channels will
contain different language. Select the channel with
the language you desire.
Room Size
This parameter allows you set virtual hall size to simulate
for each surround mode. You can choose from
“Large,” “Mid-Large,” “Middle,” “Mid-Small,” or
“Small.”
Output Channel
Listening angle
This allows you to set which output channel to use for
monaural sound. If “None” is selected for the Center
Speaker setting in the Speaker Config sub-menu, then
this setting will not appear.
The listening angle is the angle subtended by the front
left and right speakers as seen from the listener. The set-
ting of 20 and 40 degrees are only for nominal pur-
poses, so select the setting that is closest to your actual
listening angle.
L+R: The monaural sound is split between the left
and right channels.
Center: The monaural sound is output from the front
center channel.
Front left speaker
Front right speaker
Digital Upsampling
Digital upsampling processes the input digital signal
and converts its digital sampling frequency to twice the
current frequency for an even further detailed sound
reproduction. This can be set to either “On” or “Off.”
Listening angle

Listening Mode Setup
Center
Virtual Surr Level
For systems that have a center speaker, the center
channel signal can be output from the center speaker.
For instance, in systems where the front left and right
speakers are small, use of the center speaker may pro-
vide a better sound space. (If your system uses a center
speaker, be sure to perform the level calibration with
the left and right speakers in the Speaker Setup menu
beforehand.)
This parameter adjusts the virtual surround level. This
can be set from -3 to +3 decibels.
Dialog Enhance
This parameter allows you to adjust the dialog sound
level from the center speaker if it is difficult to hear.
On: Enhances the vocal ranges for the center chan-
nel signal.
Off: Outputs the center channel signal at the regular
level and frequency characteristics.
On: The center channel signal is output to the cen-
ter speaker.
Off: The center channel signal is output from the
front left and right speakers (Phantom Center).
Front Expander
The front expander function spreads out the sound
from the front speakers for the feeling of a wide sound
space.
On: Select to turn on the front expander function to
simulate a wider sound space.
Off: Select to turn off the front expander function for
a normal sound space.

a. Volume Display
You can choose from two ways of displaying the vol-
ume setting on screen.
Absolute: This displays the volume with a minimum
of min (0) for no sound and a maximum of max
(100). As a reference, the volume setting of Ref (82)
is used as the 0 -decibel for the relative display
method.
Relative: This displays the volume as a decibel value
on a scale with a designated reference point that is
displayed as 0, which equals the volume setting of
82 for the absolute display method. With this display
method, the minimum value is - , the next highest is
-81, and the maximum value is +18.
b. Muting Level
This sets the attenuation level during playback when
the Muting button is pressed on the remote controller.
This can be set between - , -50 and -10 decibels in 10-
decibel increments.
c. Maximum Volume
This sets a maximum limit for the master volume to re-
duce the chance of any components becoming dam-
aged from accidental increases to the volume. For the
absolute volume display method, this can be set be-
tween 50 and 90. For the relative volume display
method, this can be set between -32 and +17 decibels.
d. Power On Volume
This sets a designated volume setting for the DTR-9.1 to
be set every time that the power is turned on. This pre-
vents the DTR-9.1 from being turned on while it is set to
an extremely high volume and suddenly output very
loud sounds. For the absolute volume display method,
this can be set between 0 and 99. For the relative vol-
ume display method, this can be set between - and
+18 decibels. If you do not mind having the DTR-9.1
turned on with its current volume setting, set this to “Last
Valid.”

The DTR-9.1 cannot output the OSD menu for both the
main and remote zones simultaneously. For example, if
an input source with no image is selected at the main
zone (only the background color is displayed on the
television screen) and the Zone 2 input source is
changed, then the display at the main zone changes
from the background color to a display with no image
and the display at Zone 2 changes to the OSD menu
(Immediate Display). This is not a malfunction. To pre-
vent this, change the c. Immediate Display setting for

Listening to FM/AM Radio Stations
Tuning into a radio station
1. Press either the AM or FM input source button.
One of the features of the DTR-9.1 that is most
frequently used is its ability to play FM and AM
broadcast radio stations. The DTR-9.1 provides a
number of listening modes perfect for listening to the
radio and getting the most out of your audio system.
Also, by presetting radio stations that you listen to
frequently, you can use the PRESET buttons on the front
panel to go to them automatically.
2. Using the and Tuning buttons on the front
panel, tune into the station you desire.
When you tune into a radio station, > < surrounds the
displayed frequency. If you tune into an FM station
in stereo, then
surrounds the displayed fre-
quency. If the signal is weak, it may be impossible to
tune into the station in stereo. In such a case, press
the FM Mode button under the cover on the front
panel. “Mono” appears for a few seconds under
the frequency in the front display. To return to ste-
reo, press the FM Mode button again. “Auto” ap-
pears for a few seconds and then “ ” appears to
the right of the frequency. Some inter-station noise
may be heard, but the sound will not cut in and out
as it would if stereo was selected.

Notes:
Of course the DTR-9.1 can also be used to record an
input source media. This allows you to make copies of
the music or videos you like, copy them from one type
of media to another, or even record what is being
broadcast on television or radio. Be aware that the Rec
Out and Zone 2 buttons use the same circuit so that you
cannot make recording and output to the remote zone
(Zone 2) at the same time.
• 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 signals input to the DIGITAL INPUT (COAXIAL)
and DIGITAL INPUT (OPTICAL) inputs will be output to
the DIGITAL OUTPUT (COAXIAL) and DIGITAL OUTPUT
(OPTICAL) outputs.
• Digital input signals are only output to the digital
outputs and analog input signals are only output
from the analog outputs. There is no conversion
from digital to analog or vice versa. When connect-
ing CD players and other digital components, do
not connect only the digital terminals, but the ana-
log ones as well.
• There are some restrictions on recording digital sig-
nals. When making digital recordings, consult the in-
struction manual that came with your digital record-
ing equipment (e.g., MD recorder or DAT deck) to
know what restrictions are imposed.

After programming which MODE button to use, you will
then transfer the separate commands from the other
remote controller over to the RC-418M remote control-
ler one at a time. Each command is then programmed
to a different button on the RC-418M remote controller.
Any button is programmable for this step except for the
eight MODE buttons (AUDIO, CD, DVD, MD, SAT, CABLE,
VCR, and TV), the two MACRO buttons (DIRECT and
MODE), and the LIGHT button.
controllers. The other is a macro learning function that
enables you to program of series of operations into the
remote controller so that they can all be performed at
once by pressing one button.

into buttons on the remote controller. You may,
however, use these buttons to program the codes
for other remote controllers. If you wish to restore the
Integra preset codes after you program new codes,
you must first erase the new codes (see page 63).
• The remote controller has 408 memory slots (8
modes x 51 buttons). Some remote controllers may
have more commands that can be remembered
by the remote controller. In such cases, it will be
necessary for you to determine which commands
are more important than others.
After flashing twice, the SEND/LEARN indicator will
light again and “LEARN” appears in the display.
5. Repeat Steps 3 and 4 to transfer all the
commands you desire from the other remote
controller and program them to buttons on the
remote controller under the same MODE.
Repeat Steps 2 through 4 to program commands to
a different MODE (e.g., when programming from a
different remote controller).
• If no button is pressed for more than 30 seconds dur-
ing the programming, or if you perform an invalid
operation during programming, the SEND/LEARN in-
dicator flashes three times quickly, “ERROR” ap-
pears in the display, and the remote controller exits
the programming mode. Resume from Step 2.
• If a failure occurs during programming, the SEND/
LEARN indicator flashes three times quickly, “NG”
appears in the display, and the remote controller
exits the programming mode. Resume from Step 3.
• If a failure occurs five times in row during program-
ming, “ERROR” appears in the display, and the re-
mote controller exits the programming mode. Re-
sume from Step 3.
6. Press the MODE button that you pressed in
step 2 to complete the programming.
7. Operate the newly programmed buttons to
make sure the learning function was
performed properly.
• If you try to program beyond the learning capacity
of the remote controller, the SEND/LEARN indicator
flashes six times quickly, “FULL” appears in the dis-
play, and the remote controller exits the program-
ming mode. Try programming under a different
MODE button.
• When you want to program a command to a but-
ton to which you have already programmed a
command, simply follow the same procedure given
and programming for that button will be overwrit-
ten.
• The remote controller uses infrared rays to send its
commands, as do most other remote controllers.
Though most remote controller codes can be
memorized by the remote controller, be aware that
some remote controllers use a system that is quite
different from the remote controller and therefore
may not be able to be programmed.
• Some remote controllers have a single button that
performs multiple functions (for example, the func-
tion may change each time the button is pressed). If
this is the case, each function must be programmed
to a separate button on the remote controller.
• Once you have transferred the commands from the
other remote controller, refer to the instruction
manual that came with that product for instructions
on how to operate that product.
• Make sure both the remote controller and the other
remote controller have new batteries. If either of
them has batteries that are low, you may not be
able to program the commands of the other re-
mote controller properly into the remote controller.
See page 63 for how to erase the memorized
commands from all buttons.

Using a Macro function
What is a Macro function?
Programming a Macro function
A Macro function enables you to program a series of
button operations (up to 16) on the remote controller
into a single button. For example, to play a compact
disc player connected to the DTR-9.1 normally, you
must perform the following steps:
You can program a different macro into the MODE
MACRO button for each of the eight MODE buttons.
The macro is then executed by pressing the
appropriate MODE button and then pressing the MODE
MACRO button. For example, to program the macro
described above into the CD MODE button, perform
the steps given below.
1. Press the AUDIO/TAPE MODE button.
2. Press the POWER ON button.
3. Press the CD (INPUT SELECTOR) button.
4. Press the CD MODE button.
1. Press and hold down the desired MODE button
(in this case, the CD MODE button), press the
MODE MACRO button, and then release both
buttons.
5. Press the playback button.
By using the macro function, you can perform the
above five operations by only pressing two buttons.
When you press the MODE CD button, the SEND/
LEARN indicator lights and “CD” appears in the dis-
play. When you press the MODE MACRO button, the
indicator turns off. When you release the buttons,
the indicator flashes and lights again and “M 01”
appears in the display.
2. Press the operation buttons you wish to
program in order (in this case, press AUDIO/
TAPE MODE → POWER ON → CD (INPUT
SELECTOR) → CD MODE → playback button).

• If you perform an invalid operation during program-
ming, the SEND/LEARN indicator flashes three times
quickly, “ERROR” appears in the display, and the re-
mote controller exits the programming mode. Re-
sume from Step 1.
Tips:
• If you erase or change the command of a button
programmed in a macro, that operation of that but-
ton will no longer work in the macro. In this case, it
will be necessary for you to reprogram the macro in
order to avoid incorrect operation.
Running a Macro function
• The codes programmed into a macro will be trans-
mitted at an interval of 0.5 seconds. However, some
devices may not be able to complete one opera-
tion in 0.5 seconds and may miss the next code. In
this case, after pressing one operation button, you
can press the same MODE button again before
pressing the next operation button to add another
0.5 seconds between the two operations.
Perform the procedure below to run a macro function
that you have programmed into the remote controller.
After programming a macro, you should always run it at
least once to make sure that it has been programmed
properly.
1. Point the remote controller at the DTR-9.1 and
press the CD MODE button.
2. Press the MODE MACRO, and verify that the
devices operate properly.
It may take a while for the macro to finish transmitting,
so be sure to continue pointing the remote controller
at the device until the SEND/LEARN indicator turns off.

Features
I THX Ultra2
I Dolby* Digital EX
The new THX Ultra2 standard from Lucasfilm ensures
the highest sound and picture quality and the most
reliable operation. The THX Ultra2 adds the THX Ultra2
Cinema mode and THX MusicMode to the
conventional THX Cinema mode to create the
optimum sound space for both music and movies.
Dolby Digital Surround EX takes a Dolby Digital 5.1 ch
movie surround track and adds a third surround
channel for output through a speaker placed behind
the viewers. Even though it is hard to create the sound
space behind those sitting at the ends of rows in
movie theaters, by creating this independent
surround channel behind the viewer and adding it to
the existing left and right surround channels, the
heightened feeling of presence essentially draws you
into the scene. The information for the added rear
channel is encoded into the left and right surround
channels of normal 5.1 Dolby Digital surround tracks.
Movie theaters equipped with the Dolby Digital
Surround EX decoder can extract the information for
the third surround channel. When movies shown using
Dolby Digital Surround EX are released on DVDs or 5.1
ch digital television broadcasts as well, the
information for the third surround channel is encoded
within. With the Dolby Digital EX decoder in your home
theater, you can extract the third surround channel
and experience the movie with the surround back
channel for the sound space that the producer of the
movie desired. Just as it is at movie theaters, there is no
loss of audio quality or data with the normal 5.1 ch
Dolby Digital playback.
THX Ultra2 Cinema: When performing 7.1 ch playback
of Dolby Digital, DTS, or other 5.1 ch movie sources,
THX Ultra2 Cinema analyzes the surround components
to create surround back channels for the optimum
ambient and directional surround sound. This new THX
Ultra2 mode provides a wider sound space to the
sides and rear and a heightened feeling of the sound
positioning.
THX MusicMode: This is a new mode provided with THX
Ultra2 and meant for the playback of music software
sources. THX MusicMode converts 5.1 ch multi-
channel music sources to 7.1 ch playback with a
virtual rear sound from the surround speakers and
surround back speakers. The rear sound space is
created with the consistency and spaciousness
optimum for music playback.
I DTS 96/24
The upgraded unit is equipped with the newest audio
format DTS 96/24 decoder developed by DTS. It is the
world’s first 96-kHz/24-bit-compatible compression
audio format standard for 96-kHz/24-bit, 5.1 ch, high-
quality multi-channel playback.
I Dolby* Pro LogicⅡdecoder
This is a surround decoding method which the Dolby
Laboratories Inc. suggests. This method uses feedback
logic circuits to restore the signal that is matrix-
encoded to 2 channel, enabling 5.1 ch playback with
maintaining separation as high as Dolby Digital. In this
mode, either analog or digital signal can be
decoded. There are two modes for Dolby Pro Logic Ⅱ
: Movie and Music. The Movie mode is optimized for
playing movies. You can play the dubbed speech
recorded in Dolby surround and enjoy the videos with
2 ch sound like old movies in 5.1 ch playback full of live
presence. The Music mode will provide more sound
space and clearer 3D sound image localization.
I DTS-ES Extended Surround Decoder
•
DTS-ES Discrete 6.1
This is a new format that all 6.1 ch including added
surround back channels are recorded discretely in
digital. Because all channels are recorded separately,
you can enjoy surround sound with higher separation.
•
DTS-ES Matrix 6.1
In this format, sound for added surround back
channels is inserted respectively into left and right
surround channels with matrix-encoded, and when
playing the high precision matrix decoder decodes
the inserted sound for surround back channels.
Since the new playback formats above are added, the
former listening modes such as DTS Film, MPEG Film,
Action and Musical are organized into new listening
modes. After this, some setup parameters are also
updated.
I DTS Neo:6
This mode uses a high precision matrix decoder to
play 2ch sound as 6.1ch sound. Full-band (frequency
response: 20 Hz to 20 kHz) playback is available for all 6
channels and you can feel the channel separation of
digital discrete level. In addition, you can choose a
playback mode from Cinema (for movies) and Music
(for music) depending on the source you want to
play.
In addition, the following functions are upgraded.
I Crossover Adjustment
The crossover adjustment enables you to adjust the
bass range for the subwoofer according to the sizes of
your other speakers.
I 96 kHz/24 bit upsampling for analog sound
Analog sound signals from VCRs and other sources
can now be treated as digital signals and processed
with 96 kHz upsampling and 24 bit quantization. This
enables more accurate sound playback.
I Extension of A/V Sync function
You can set the A/V Sync function parameters in the
range of 0 to 120 ms.

Speaker configuration and placement/
Connecting speakers
Speaker placement
Ideal speaker placement varies depending on the size of
your room and the wall coverings. Here, only typical
example of speaker placement and recommendations
are shown.
Important points regarding speaker placement
Front left and right speakers and center speaker
• Place these three speakers at the same height from
the floor.
• Place each speaker so that sound is aimed at the
location of the listener’s ears when at the listening
position.
• Place the front left and right speakers the same
distance from the listening position.
Surround left and right speakers
• Place these speakers so that their height is 1 meter (3
feet) higher than that of the listener’s ears.
Surround back left and right speakers
• For maximum effect of the new THX Ultra2 feature,
place these two speakers as close together as
possible. Dipolar speakers, however, should be
placed apart the required amount (below right).
• Place these speakers so that their height is 1 meter (3
feet) higher than that of the listener’s ears.
Subwoofer
A subwoofer is recommended for the highest bass effect.

Center, Right, Surround Right, Surround Back Right,
Surround Back Left, Surround Left and Subwoofer) and
the two Surround Back speakers are placed close
together as shown in the speaker placement diagrams
on page 3, you can take advantage of THX’s Advanced
Speaker Array (ASA) technology. ASA optimizes the
surround sound experience using two new modes; THX
Ultra2 Cinema and THX MusicMode.
a. Dolby Digital
The level can be adjusted to either –∞ or between –10
and 0 decibels in 1-decibel increments. For Dolby Digital
input source signals, the LFE level becomes that set here.
A setting of 0 decibels is recommended for optimum
performance; however, if the low frequency range is too
strong, lower this setting as necessary.
b. DTS
The level can be adjusted to either –∞ or between –10
and 0 decibels in 1-decibel increments. For DTS input
source signals, the LFE level becomes that set here. A
setting of 0 decibels is recommended for optimum
performance; however, if the low frequency range is too
strong, lower this setting as necessary.
a. THX Ultra2 Subwoofer
Set “Yes” if your subwoofer conforms to the THX Ultra2
standard or if the playback capability of its bass range
extends down to 20 Hz. Otherwise, set “No.”
b. Boundary Gain Compensation
c. MPEG Multi
Room boundaries (walls) or other characteristics (such as
wall construction) may increase the perceived acoustics
levels at low frequencies. Depending on the listener's and
the subwoofer's position, the listener may experience an
excessive bass effect.
The level can be adjusted to either –∞ or between –10
and 0 decibels in 1-decibel increments. For MPEG input
source signals, the LFE level becomes that set here. A
setting of 0 decibels is recommended for optimum
performance; however, if the low frequency range is too
strong, lower this setting as necessary.
The purpose of this feature is to compensate for excessive
bass resulting from a boundary gain effect.
ON: Boundary Gain Compensation is applied.
OFF: Boundary Gain Compensation is not applied.
c. Distance between Surr Back Sp
Measure the distance between your two surround back
speakers and then choose the setting that corresponds
to your measurement: “0-30 cm (0-12 inch),” “>30-122 cm
(>12-48 inch),” or “>122 cm (>48 inch)”. For optimum ASA
effect, the surround back speakers should be placed as
close together as possible.

b. Digital Format
With the this unit, you can set a different listening mode
for each different signal format that comes from each
input source and also set the parameters for the listening
mode itself. For example, if your DVD player also plays
compact discs and the DVD video signal is DTS and the
compact disc signal is PCM, then you can set a different
listening mode for each.
The default setting is “All.” If “----” is selected for this input
source at the Digital Input setting, then this setting will not
appear. Although you can use this default setting as is,
you may change it as desired depending on the input
signal format (e.g., if you know that you will always be
listening to a certain input signal format from a particular
input source).
This is especially convenient if you frequently play the
same types of movies or music.
All: Detects input signal format automatically. The
Dolby Digital, DTS, MPEG Multi, and PCM signals are
automatically detected and decoded appropriately.
If there are no digital input signal, the input signal
coming into analog input jack will be played.
AC-3RF: Select this option when you play only AC-3RF
signal which comes from AC-3RF output jack on a LD
player to the AC-3RF input jack on you unit. When
using this option, signals from other input jack will not
be played. This option can be selected when you
select the VIDEO 4 for input source.
Note that some listening modes cannot be set for some
input sources. In addition, if “multi channel” is set for the
input source selected, then the listening mode cannot be
set. Also, if the “----” is set for the Digital Input setting in the
Digital Setup sub-menu, then you can only select
“Analog/PCM.”

Notes on DTS:
• If you play a CD or LD that supports DTS when the “PCM”
setting is selected on the this unit, the DTS encoded signal
will not be decoded and noise will be output. This noise
could damage the amplifier and speakers. Therefore, be
sure to selected “All” or “DTS” and use the digital input
jacks (OPTICAL or COAXIAL) to connect the DTS source.
• If you play a CD or LD that supports DTS when the “All”
setting is selected, you may hear a noise for a short while
until the DTS decoder recognizes the DTS-encoded signal
and starts operating. This is not a malfunction.
• If you press the “pause” or “skip” button on the player
while playing a DTS source, a short noise may be
heard. This is not a malfunction. In such cases, try
playing the source in the “DTS” selected.
• The DTS indicator on this unit lights while a DTS source is
played. When playback finishes and the DTS signal
transmission stops, this unit remains in DTS mode and the
DTS indicator remains lit. This prevents noise when you
operate the “pause” or “skip” button on the player.
Therefore, if the source is immediately switched from
DTS to PCM, the PCM signal may not be played. In this
case, stop the playback of the source on the player for
about three seconds and then resume playback.
5.1-channel digital surround format
The 5.1-channel digital surround format has a variety of
versions including Dolby Digital, DTS, and MPEG
Multichannel. The 5.1- channel digital surround format
enables you to individually record and play five full-range
(20Hz-20kHz) channels (left and right front, center, two
surround channels) plus an LFE channel (Low Frequency
Effect) for the low-range effect sound. It will create a
realistic sound that could be heard in the theaters and
concert halls.
• 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 this unit digitally. This is because
the digital signal has been processed (such as the
output level, sampling frequency, or frequency
response) and this unit cannot recognize the signal as
DTS data. Therefore you may hear noise when you
play a DTS source while processing the signal.
• The outputs for the VIDEO 1 OUT, VIDEO 2 OUT, TAPE 1
OUT, and TAPE 2 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.

a. Analog/PCM
Mono
Analog sources consist of LP records, FM and AM
broadcasts, cassette tapes, and the such. PCM (Pulse
Code Modulation) is one form of digital audio signals and
is recorded directly onto compact discs and DVDs
without compression.
This mode is for playing old movies whose sound is
recorded in monaural or playing left and right channels
separately in the movies which contains the different
language signals recorded into individual channels. This
mode also allows you to listen to the multiplexed
soundtracks on DVDs, and other media that have them.
b. PCM fs > 48 k
Digital PCM sources that are recorded at a sampling rate
of greater than 48 kilohertz. This includes DVDs that are
recorded with high quality audio.
Direct
This mode delivers pure sound with minimum sound
quality adjustment and filtration. The sound recorded for
the right and left front channels is output to the right and
left front speakers only and not output to the subwoofer.
c. PCM fs = 192 k
Digital PCM sources that are recorded at a sampling rate
of 192 kilohertz. This includes DVDs that are recorded with
extremely high quality audio.

For the best enjoyment of your home theater, it is
recommended that you have at least front left and right
speakers, a center speaker, and surround left and right
speakers. However, if you only have front left and right
speakers, you can enjoy multichannel audio by using this
mode.
Dialogue Normalization (Dial Norm) is feature of Dolby
Digital. When playing back software that has been
encoded in Dolby Digital, sometimes you may see a
brief message in the front panel display that read Dial
Norm xdB (“x” being a numeric value). Dialogue
Normalization serves to let you know if the source
material has been recorded at a higher or lower level
than usual. For example, if you see the message “Dial
Norm: +4” in the front panel display, to keep the
overall output level constant just turn down the
volume control by 4 dB. In other words, the source
material that you are listening to has been recorded 4
dB louder than usual. If you do not see a message,
then no adjustment of the volume control is
necessary.
This mode controls the characteristics of the sound that
reaches each ear to reproduce a multi-speaker setup. To
receive the full effect, there is an optimum listening
position (sweet spot). Refer to the explanation of the
listening angle. In addition, if the reflective sound
components are large, it may be difficult to achieve the
desired result, so be sure to set up your system and
listening position to minimize reflective sound.

THX
DTS Neo:6
This mode is for playing back sources using THX.
For excellent fidelity when playing back THX sounds, it is
recommended to use a THX-certified speaker system.
This mode is for 6.1 channel playback of 2 channel
sources such as PCM or analog sources. All 6 channel
outputs are wide frequency range with a great
separation between the different channels.
This mode can be set to the Cinema mode designed for
playing movies and the Music mode designed for
listening to music.
• THX Cinema
This is the conventional 5.1-channel THX format. This
mode should be used only when playing back sources
that were mixed for playback in large movie theater
environments.
• DTS Neo:6 Cinema
This mode is good for movies. Reproduced surround
sound makes realistic feel of movement as 6.1
channel sources. This mode can be used with VHS and
television programs with stereo sound.
• THX Surround EX
“THX Surround EX - Dolby Digital Surround EX” is a joint
development of Dolby Laboratories and the THX
division of Lucasfilm Ltd.
• DTS Neo:6 Music
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.
In order to enjoy the full effects of the THX Surround EX
technology at home, you must be using a receiver or
controller with the appropriate certification logo and
the receiver must be set to the THX Surround EX mode.
This unit can play the 5.1 ch program in THX surround
EX mode, even if the program is not encoded in Dolby
Digital Surround EX format. For this kind of program,
the sound from surround back channels depends on a
program and may not fit to your taste.
This mode uses the surround channels to provide a
natural sound space that cannot be provided with
normal stereo output. This mode can be used with
music compact discs and other stereo sources.
Mono Movie
This mode is suitable for playing back monaural recording
such as old movie soundtracks. The center channel
delivers the unprocessed original sound, whereas the
other channels deliver the center-channel sound
processed with the appropriate reverberation. This allows
you to enjoy monaural sound with the atmosphere of a
movie theater.
Enhanced 7
Enhanced 7 intends to reproduce a natural surround
environment by using 7-channel speakers. The sound
effects moving smoothly toward the surround back. This
mode is good for music and TV sports programs.
Orchestra
• THX Ultra2 Cinema
This mode is appropriate for classical and opera music.
The center channel is cut and the surround channels are
emphasized to widen the stereo image. It will simulate the
natural reverberation that is created in large halls.
When performing 7.1 ch playback of Dolby Digital,
DTS, or other 5.1 ch movie sources, the surround
components are analyzed and used to create
surround back channels for the optimum ambient and
directional surround sound. This provides a wider
sound space to the sides and rear and a heightened
feeling of the sound positioning.
Unplugged
This mode is suitable for acoustical instrumental sounds,
vocals, and jazz music. By emphasizing the front stereo
image, it will simulate the acoustics that you would
experience in front of the stage.
• THX MusicMode
This is a new mode provided with THX Ultra2 and
meant for the playback of music software sources. 5.1
ch multi-channel music sources are converted to 7.1
ch playback with a virtual rear sound from the
surround speakers and surround back speakers. The
rear sound space is created with the consistency and
spaciousness optimum for music playback.
Studio-Mix
This mode is for rock and popular music. The lively sounds
are enhanced for a powerful acoustic image that
simulates the feeling of being in a club or rock concert.
TV Logic
This mode gives realistic acoustics to TV programs that are
aired from TV studios. It enhances the entire surround
sound and clarity of the conversation.
Pro LogicⅡ
Previous Dolby Pro Logic records the 4 channel signals
(left and right front, center, monaural surround) into 2
channels using matrix encoding and, in playback,
decodes the 2 channel signal into 4 channels. However,
Dolby Pro LogicⅡuse the feedback logic circuits to
decode matrix-encoded 2 channel signal (e.g. Dolby
Surround) more precisely into original channels for 5.1 ch
playback.
All Ch Stereo
This mode is designed for playing background music. The
front, surround, and surround back channels create a
stereo image that encompasses the entire area.
In Pro LogicⅡ, you can choose the Movie mode for
playing movies and the Music mode for playing music.
• Pro LogicⅡMovie
In this mode, conventional narrow band monaural
surround channel is played as stereo with a realistic
feel of movement.
• Pro LogicⅡMusic
In this mode, surround channels will produce natural
sound space from 2 channel music.
The Movie mode can be used for playing the VHS or
DVD video with
mark or certain TV
programs. The Music mode can be used for playing
music in stereo from CD and other sources.

Listening Mode Setup
Surround Back: This outputs the sound to the surround
back left and right speakers and outputs nothing to
the surround left and right speakers.
Sur L/R+Back: This outputs the sound to both the
surround left and right speakers and the surround
back left and right speakers.
Description listening mode parameters
Subwoofer
Set this to “Off” if you are not using a subwoofer (even if
one is connected). If “No” is selected for the Subwoofer
setting in the Speaker Config sub-menu, then this setting
will not appear.
Upsampling
Upsampling processes the input digital signal or the
converted digital signal from analog input source and
converts their digital sampling frequency to twice the
current frequency for an even further detailed sound
reproduction. This can be set to either “On” or “Off.”
Re-EQ/Academy
Depending on the listening mode, you can either turn Re-
EQ on or off, or you can select “Re-EQ,” “Academy,” or
“Off.”
Re-EQ: Re-EQ (re-equalization) takes the edginess or
“brightness” out of your home cinema sound to
compensate for the fact that sound mixed for
theaters may sound too bright when played back
through speakers in the home environment.
Academy: Older monaural film mixes relied on high-
frequency rolloff in presentation to sound properly
balanced, so that excessive hiss from the grain
structure of the film would not be heard. The high-
frequency loss was typically due to a combination of
optical slit loss, electrical filters, loudspeaker response,
and screen loss. Some films have been transferred to
video without such a high-frequency rolloff, and thus
sound overly bright and hissy. This unit includes this
“Academy filter,” which is based on contemporary
playback practices for such films over wide-range
systems.
Surround Mode
Selects the Surround Mode for analog or PCM source.
Available options are PLⅡMovie (Pro LogicⅡMovie), PLⅡ
Music (Pro LogicⅡMusic), DTS Neo:6 Cinema, and DTS
Neo:6 Music.
You can change the Surround Mode settings easily using
the remote controller. When you set the listening mode to
Pro LogicⅡor DTS Neo:6, each press of the SURROUND
button on the remote controller cyclically changes the
Surround mode in the order of PLⅡ Movie, PLⅡMusic, DTS
Neo:6 Cinema, and DTS Neo:6 Music.
Surround Mode (2ch)
Selects the Surround Mode for 2 ch digital source (except
for PCM). Available options are PLⅡMovie and PLⅡ
Music. You cannot select Neo:6 Cinema and Neo:6
Music.
On: Select to turn on the Re-EQ.
Off: Select to turn off both the Re-EQ and Academy
Pro LogicⅡMusic Panorama
filters.
Use this listening mode to expand sound space in front of
a listener to both side of the listener.
Input Channel
This allows you to set which input channel to use for
monaural sound.
On: Turns on the PLⅡMusic Panorama mode.
Off: Turns off the PLⅡMusic Panorama mode.
Auto L+R: Select this under normal circumstances.
When the input source is center channel only, this
channel is used for monaural sound input channel.
Otherwise, left and right channels are mixed and the
mixed signal is used for monaural sound input
channel.
Left/Right: You will need to select either left or right
when playing a video source that contains bilingual
data. In such a case, the left and right channels will
contain different language. Select the channel with
the language you desire.
Pro LogicⅡMusic Dimension
Use this listening mode to modify the sound space
location forward or backward.
The setting of “3” is the normal position and setting to “2”
or lower moves the sound space forward and setting to
“4” or higher move the sound space backward.
If the stereo recording has excessive broadness or too
strong surroundness, move the sound space forward to
get the appropriate sound balance. In contrast, if the
stereo recording is somewhat felt like monaural or has
narrowness, move the sound space backward to get
more surroundness.
Output Channel
This allows you to set which output channel to use for
monaural sound. If “None” is selected for the Center
Speaker setting in the Speaker Config sub-menu, then this
setting will not appear.
Pro LogicⅡMusic Center Width
In Pro LogicⅡdecoding, outstanding center signal will be
output only from center speaker. When the center
speaker is not used, the decoder divide the center signal
equally to each front left and right speakers to create
“phantom” center sound image.
Auto L+R: The monaural sound is split between the left
and right channels.
Center: The monaural sound is output from the front
center channel.
The Pro LogicⅡMusic Center Width mode allows you to
adjust where the center sound image is heard from.
Depending on your setting, the center sound image will
be heard from center speaker only, front left and right
speakers (as phantom center sound image), or all three
speakers (center, front left and right) in various level
combinations. For home use, applying some “width” to
center signal will improve the level balance for center
and main speakers, and effect the width of the center
sound image, or “mass” of the sound. Many of sound
recordings processed for stereo playback will be
reproduced better by controlling the parameter for this
listening mode. The recommended setting for Pro LogicⅡ
Music mode is “3.” This allows you to easily distinguish the
Pro LogicⅡMusic mode from the Pro LogicⅡMovie mode
whose setting is automatically set to “0.”
Surround Speakers
This setting allows you to decide through which speakers
to output the sound meant for the surround speakers
during 5.1-channel output when seven speakers are
connected to this unit.
Note:
If you have two surround back speakers placed very
close together and you select “Surround Back” or “Surr L/
R+Back,” then you may not achieve the desired left-right
separation of the sound space. In this case, “Surround
L+R” is recommended.
Surround L/R: This outputs the sound to the surround
left and right speakers as normal and outputs nothing
to the surround back left and right speakers.

Listening Mode Setup
Neo:6 Music Center Image
DTS-ES
DTS Neo:6 derives a center channel from two-channel
PCM and analog sources.
Selects DTS-ES mode.
Auto: When the DTS source has the DTS-ES flag (ID
signal for DTS-ES), the listening mode is automatically
changed to DTS-ES Discrete 6.1 or DTS-ES Matrix 6.1. If
the DTS source has no DTS-ES flag, the mode is
changed to DTS 5.1.
On: When the DTS source has the DTS-ES flag, the
listening mode is automatically changed to DTS-ES
Discrete 6.1 or DTS-ES Matrix 6.1. If the DTS source has
no DTS-ES flag, the mode is forced to be DTS-ES Matrix
6.1.
In cinema mode, for Lt/Rt film soundtracks, sounds
steered to the center are subtracted from the left and
right channels.
In music mode, the intent in the front channels is less one
of steering and more one of stabilizing the front image by
augmenting it with a center channel, while preserving
the original perspective of the stereo mix. Therefore the
derived center is never fully subtracted from the left and
right channels.
Center Image is the factor controlling the amount of
subtraction. It varies between 0 and 5 in steps of 1 and
the default value is 3.
When Center Image=5, the factor is zero and nothing is
subtracted from the left and right channels. When Center
Image=0, the center channel is subtracted from the left
and right channels at half level (–6 dB) for each channel.
The signal level sent to the center channel output is not
affected by Center Image.
Off: Even when the DTS source has the DTS-ES flag, the
DTS-ES listening modes are not used. The DTS sources
are always played in DTS 5.1 mode.
You can change the DTS-ES mode settings easily using
the remote controller. While playing a DTS source, after
selecting DTS for listening mode, each press of the
SURROUND button on the remote controller cyclically
changes the DTS-ES mode in the order of “Auto,” “On,”
and “Off.”
This control should be set based on room layout and
personal preferences. A setting of 5 allows the left and
right channels to pass through unaltered from the stereo
mix. A setting of 0 gives more center channel dominance,
which is particularly desirable if listeners are located well
off-center. At any setting, the center speaker anchors the
image.
THX Surround EX
Selects THX Surround EX mode when the input signal is
Dolby Digital.
Auto: When the Dolby Digital source has the EX flag (ID
signal for Surround EX), the listening mode is automatically
changed to THX Surround EX mode. When the Dolby
Digital source has no flag, the mode for the THX Mode
setting below is used. Also, if a DTS source with a DTS-ES
flag (ID signal for DTS-ES) is being played, THX Cinema
effects for that DTS-ES playback format will be added.
Center Image is only enabled when the listening mode is
DTS Neo:6 Music.
Dolby Digital EX (Dolby D)
If you have surround back speakers connected, use this
setting to select whether or not you will use Dolby EX
playback.
Manual: Even when the source has the EX flag, the
mode for the THX Mode setting below is used.
Auto: When the source has an EX flag (ID signal for
Surround EX), the playback is automatically changed
to Dolby Digital EX. If the source has no EX flag, the
playback is changed to Dolby Digital.
On: The playback is set to Dolby Digital EX.
Off: The playback is set to normal Dolby Digital.
THX Mode
Selects THX mode.
Ultra2 Cinema: Playback is set to THX Ultra2 Cinema.
MusicMode: Playback is set to THX MusicMode.
Surround EX or DTS-ES Mtrx6.1+THX: Playback is set to
THX Surround EX. For DTS sources, the playback is DTS-
ES Discrete 6.1 or DTS-ES Matrix 6.1 according to the EX
flag.
If your surround channel is monaural or you do not have a
surround channel, then the playback will be normal
Dolby Digital regardless of the above setting.
You can change the Dolby Digital EX mode settings easily
using the remote controller. While playing a Dolby Digital
source, after selecting Dolby D for listening mode, each
press of the SURROUND button on the remote controller
cyclically changes the Dolby Digital EX mode in the order
of “Auto,” “On,” and “Off.”
Cinema: Playback is set to THX Cinema.
These settings can be changed easily using the remote
controller (unless THX Surround EX setting is Auto and the
playback source has an EX or ES flag). With THX mode set
for the listening mode, press the THX button on the remote
controller to cycle the mode from Ultra2 Cinema →
MusicMode → Surround EX (for DTS sources: DTS-ES Mtrx
6.1+THX) → Cinema → and back.
Dolby EX (Others)
If you have surround back speakers connected, use this
setting to select whether or not you will use Dolby EX
playback for MPEG multi-channel sources.
Decoder (Analog/PCM)
Select the decoding mode before the THX processing.
PLⅡMovie: Decodes Dolby Pro LogicⅡMovie.
DTS Neo:6 Cinema: Decodes DTS Neo:6 Cinema.
On: For playback of MPEG multi-channel sources with
Dolby EX effects added.
Off: For normal playback of MPEG multi-channel
sources.
You can change the Dolby EX mode settings easily using
the remote controller. While playing
a
MPEG
Multichannel source, after selecting Dolby EX for listening
mode, each press of the SURROUND button on the
remote controller cyclically changes the Dolby EX mode
in the order of “On,” or “Off.”

Listening Mode Setup
Listening angle
Reverb Lvl (Level)
The listening angle is the angle subtended by the front left
and right speakers as seen from the listener. The setting of
20 and 40 degrees are only for nominal purposes, so
select the setting that is closest to your actual listening
angle.
This parameter allows you to adjust the depth of acoustic
reverberation to match the playback source material,
the acoustics of your room, and such other factors. This
can be set between –5 and +5 decibels in 1-decibel
increments.
Front left speaker
Front right speaker
Room Size
This parameter allows you set virtual hall size to simulate
for each surround mode. You can choose from “Large,”
“Mid-Large,” “Middle,” “Mid-Small,” or “Small.”
Listening angle
20˚ - 40˚
Center
For systems that have a center speaker, the center
channel signal can be output from the center speaker.
For instance, in systems where the front left and right
speakers are small, use of the center speaker may
provide a better sound space. (If your system uses a
center speaker, be sure to perform the level calibration
with the left and right speakers in the Speaker Setup
menu beforehand.)
On: The center channel signal is output to the center
speaker.
Off: The center channel signal is output from the front
left and right speakers (Phantom Center).
Front Expander
The front expander function spreads out the sound from
the front speakers for the feeling of a wide sound space.
On: Select to turn on the front expander function to
simulate a wider sound space.
Off: Select to turn off the front expander function for a
normal sound space.
Virtual Surr Lvl (Level)
This parameter adjusts the virtual surround level. This can
be set from –3 to +3 decibels.
Dialog Enhance
This parameter allows you to adjust the dialog sound level
from the center speaker if it is difficult to hear.
On: Enhances the vocal ranges for the center channel
signal.
Off: Outputs the center channel signal at the regular
level and frequency characteristics.
Front Effect
Some live recordings contain acoustic reverberation.
When you play these sources, more reverberation will be
applied by the DSP, creating too much reverb effects
and the sound loses frame or presence. In this case, set
this setting to “Off.” No reverberation from the DSP will be
applied to the sound output from the three front
channels, so the sound source is be played as it is without
any further reverberation.
Reflect Lvl (Level)
This parameter allows you to adjust the strength of direct
sound reflections to match the playback source material,
the acoustics of your room, and such other factors. This
can be set between –5 and +5 decibels in 1-decibel
increments.
