Setting up the system
Make connections as shown in the following pages.
When connecting the related system components, be sure
to refer to the instruction manuals supplied with the
components you are connecting.
Input mode settings
CD/DVD, VIDEO 2, VIDEO 3 and DVD/6CH inputs each include jacks
for digital audio input and analog audio input.
The initial factory settings for audio signal playback for CD/DVD,
DVD/6CH and VIDEO 2 and VIDEO 3 are FULL AUTO.
After completing connections and turning on this model, follow the
steps below.
Do not connect the power cord to a wall outlet until all
connections are completed.
Notes
1. Be sure to insert all connection cords securely. If their connections are
imperfect, sound may not be produced or there will be noise inference.
2. Be sure to remove the power cord from the AC outlet before plugging
or unplugging any connection cords. Plugging/unplugging connection
cords without disconnecting the power cord can cause malfunctions
and may damage the unit.
INPUT MODE
3. Do not connect power cords from components whose power
consumption is larger than what is indicated on the AC outlet at the
rear of this unit.
Analog connections
Input Selector keys
LISTEN MODE
Audio connections are made using RCA pin cords. These cables transfer
stereo audio signal in an “analog” form. This means the audio signal
corresponds to the actual audio of two channels. These cables usually
have 2 plugs on each end, one red for the right channel and one white for
the left channel. These cables are usually packed together with the
source unit, or are available at your local electronics retailer.
1 Use the Input Selector keys to select CD/DVD, VIDEO 2,
VIDEO 3 or DVD/6CH.
2 Press the INPUT MODE key.
Each press switches the setting as follows:
Microcomputer malfunction
In DTS play mode
1 FULL AUTO (digital input, analog input)
2 DIGITAL MANUAL (digital input)
If operation is not possible or an erroneous display appears, even
though all connections have been made properly, reset the
microcomputer referring to “In case of difficulty”.
‡
In CD/DVD, VIDEO 2, VIDEO 3 or DVD/6CH play mode
1 FULL AUTO (digital input, analog input)
2 DIGITAL MANUAL (digital input)
3 6CH INPUT (DVD/6CH input only)
4 ANALOG (analog input)
Memory back up function
Please note that the following items will be deleted from the unit's
memory if the power cord is disconnected from the AC outlet for
approximately 1 day.
Auto detect:
In FULL AUTO mode ("AUTO DETECT" indicator lights up), the
receiver detects the digital or analog input signals automatically.
The receiver will select the input mode and listening mode auto-
matically during playback to match the type of input signal (Dolby

may be changed automatically depending on the input signal.

3 Insert the cord.
4 Return the lever.
Front (left and right) Speakers
Place at the front left and right of the listening position. Front speakers
are required for all surround modes.
Center Speaker
Place front and center. This speaker stabilizes the sound image and
helps recreate sound motion. Required for surround playback.
Surround (left and right) Speakers
Place at the direct left and right, or slightly behind, the listening
position at even heights, approximately 1 meter above the ears of the
listeners. These speakers recreate sound motion and atmosphere.
Subwoofer
Usually, place the subwoofer in the front center position in the
listening room, near one of the front speakers near the center
speaker. (Since the subwoofer has less directivity than other speak-
ers, it can be placed almost in any position that can offer the best low
frequency reproduction according to the room layout.)
Surround Back Speaker/s
• Never short circuit the + and – speaker cords.
• If the left and right speakers are connected inversely or the speaker
cords are connected with reversed polarity, the sound will be unnatu-
ral with ambiguous acoustic imaging. Be sure to connect the speakers
correctly.
Speaker impedance
Place the surround back speaker behind the listening position, at the
same height as the left and right surround speakers.
After confirming the speaker impedance indications printed on the
rear panel of this model, connect speakers with matching
impedance ratings. Using speakers with a rated impedance other
than that indicated on the rear panel of this model could result in
malfunctions or damage to the speakers or this model.
• Although the ideal surround system consists of all the speakers
listed above, if you don't have a center speaker or a subwoofer, you
can divide those signals between the available speakers in the
speaker settings steps to obtain the best possible surround
reproduction from the speakers you have available.

Dolby Digital
DTS
The Dolby Digital surround format lets you enjoy up to 5.1
channels of digital surround sound from Dolby Digital program
The DTS multi-channel audio format is available on CD, LD and
DVD software. DTS is a strictly digital format and cannot be
decoded inside most CD, LD or DVD players. For this reason, if you
attempt to listen to DTS encoded software through the analog
output of your new CD, LD or DVD player, you will experience
digital noise in most cases. This noise can be quite loud if the
analog output is connected directly to a high power amplification
system. Proper measures for playing the digital output as de-
scribed below should be taken to avoid this situation. To enjoy DTS
Digital Surround playback, an external 5.1 channel DTS Digital
Surround decoder system or an amplifier with a built-in DTS Digital
Surround decoder must be connected to the digital output (S/P
DIF, AES/EBU or TosLink) of a CD, LD or DVD player.
sources (such as Laserdisc or DVD software marked
).
Compared with previous Dolby surround, Dolby Digital provides
even better sound quality, greater spatial accuracy, and improved
dynamic range.
Dolby Digital EX
Dolby Digital EX is an extension of Dolby Digital technology, Dolby
Digital EX creates six full-bandwidth output channels from 6.1-
channel sources. This is done using a matrix decoder that derives
three surround channels from the two in the original recording.
This is achieved by using three different surround signals, sur-
round left, surround right, and surround back, each driving its own
array of speakers. Think of it as adding a center channel for the rear
speakers, which give more diffuse and natural surround effect,
even if you wanted the ability to completely encircle the audience
with sound, positioning sound effects exactly where they would
be heard in real life. For best results, Dolby Digital EX should be
used with movie soundtracks recorded with Dolby Digital Sur-
round EX which contain a digital flag that will automatically
activate this feature. However, for titles released prior to late
2001, this feature has to be activated manually.
All models are incorporated with the DTS decoder.
DTS-ES
DTS-ES (Digital Theater System-Extended Surround) presents 6.1
channels surround system with additional Surround Back channel
which evolved from the conventional 5.1 channels surround
system. DTS-ES format that was recorded in DVD, CD or LD
comprises of two modes. DTS-ES Discrete 6.1 produces the
discrete surround back which is completely independent and DTS-
ES Matrix 6.1 produces the surround back which synthesised
within the left and right surround channels using matrix technol-
ogy. DTS-ES has perfect compatibility with the conventional 5.1
channels surround system. 6.1 channels surround with an addi-
tional surround back presents a more natural presence and sur-
round effects by increasing the impression of the sound image
from back. Programs which are recorded using DTS-ES technol-
ogy consist of information flags which will be able to control the
Discrete and Matrix mode. Thus, it can automatically select the
best matched mode.
Although Dolby Digital soundtracks incorporate a separate low
frequency channel, connecting a subwoofer will also improve
deep bass performance in the other surround modes.
The indication “LFE” appears in the display when a signal is being
input for this channel.
Dolby Pro Logic IIx and Dolby Pro Logic II
Dolby Pro Logic II was designed specifically to provide a new
sense of spatiality, directionality and articulation of sounds from
Dolby Surround encoded sources (such as video and Laserdisc
Neo:6
Neo:6 is a new technology which was developed by DTS. It can
produce high grade 6 channels surround with an astonishing
fidelity from 2 channels content. Neo:6 has 2 modes, “CINEMA”
mode is for movie playback and “MUSIC” mode is for music
playback.
software marked
). This is achieved with an intelli-
gent, built-in feedback logic design, a matrix surround decoding
and the decoding of stereo, full bandwidth surround outputs.
Dolby Pro Logic IIx enhanced Dolby Pro Logic II’s features.
It creates 6.1 channel and 7.1 channel surround sound from stereo
or 5.1 channel signals. This feature provides you an astonishing
ambience effect which makes you feel you are surrounded by
natural sound. Especially 7.1 channel surround sound can produce
real back sound from Surround Back speakers.
DTS 96/24
DTS 96/24 made it possible to achieve a wide frequency range of
over 40 kHz by increasing the sampling frequency to 96 or 88.2
kHz. Moreover, DTS 96/24’s ability of 24 bit resolution offers the
same frequency band and dynamic range as 96 kHz/24 bit PCM.
DTS 96/24 is, as with conventional DTS Surround, compatible with
multi-channels. Therefore, sources recorded using DTS 96/24
technologies can be played in high sampling frequency, multi-
channel audio with ordinary DVDs and CDs.
The Pro Logic IIx modes programmed into this model are “MOVIE”,
“MUSIC” and “GAME”. The Pro Logic II modes programmed into
this model are “MOVIE”, “MUSIC”, “GAME” and “PRO LOGIC”.
The “MOVIE” mode has preset characteristics to produce a
calibrated, high-level surround sound playback while the “MU-
SIC” mode has user-adjustable characteristics to offer the three
optional controls, like “Dimension”, “Center Width” and “Pan-
orama” modes to allow optimization of the soundfields as desired.
The “Dimension” control allows the user to gradually adjust the
soundfield either towards the front or towards the rear; the
“Center Width” control allows various adjustment of the left-
center-right speakers’ balance; the “Panorama” mode extends
the front stereo image to include the surround speakers for an
exciting “wraparound” effect with side wall imaging.
DTS has a “.1” or “LFE” channel.
The indication “LFE” appears in the display when a signal is being
input for this channel.
Note
The “GAME” mode provides surrounded and exciting sound
when you enjoy game or TV. Especially in Pro Logic IIx “GAME”
mode, base sound not only from Front and Center but also from
Surround channel is added to Subwoofer. This provides ever more
dynamic surround effects.
LFE = Low Frequency Effects. This channel delivers separate
non-directional bass signals to the subwoofer for more dynamic
deep bass sound effects.

DSP mode
Surround play
The DSP mode lets you add the atmosphere of a live concert or hall
to almost any type of program source. These modes are particu-
larly effective when used with stereo program sources, like CD,
television, and FM radio. You might enjoy trying the ARENA, JAZZ
CLUB, THEATER, STADIUM or DISCO mode the next time you
watch a concert or sporting event!
The DTS compatible models can reproduce a CD, DVD, or LD carrying the
DTS mark.
Dolby Digital can be used when playing DVD or LD software bearing the
mark and Dolby Digital format digital broadcasts (etc.). Dolby
Pro Logic can be used when playing video, DVD, or LD software bearing
the
mark.
What's DSP mode?
DSP stands for Digital Signal Processor.
STEREO
The way a sound is heard in an actual environment depends on a
variety of different factors. One of the most important is rever-
beration (the act of decaying elements of sound echoing in various
places). The DSP modes produce the feeling of presence by using
the DSP to create reverberation, without spoiling the sound
quality of the original signal.

When watching movies at night , you might not be able to raise the volume as
loud as normal. Midnight mode compresses the dynamic range of previously
specified heavy sound passage of the Dolby Digital and DTS sound track (like
scenes with sudden increases in volume) to minimize the difference in volume
between the scenes with heavy sound passage and scenes with normal sound
passage. This makes it easy to hear all of the sound track, even when listening
at low volumes.
