Connections  
Without Cable Box  
ips  
If your cable wire is connected to your TV without a converter  
or descrambler box, unscrew the wire from your TV and attach  
it to the ANTENNA/CABLE IN jack on the DVD+Hi-Fi VCR.  
Use the supplied round coaxial cable to connect between the  
DVD+Hi-Fi VCR’s ANTENNA/CABLE OUT jack and the 75  
ohm antenna input jack on the TV. With this connection, you  
can receive all midband, super band, and hyperband channels.  
Depending on your TV and other equipment you wish to  
connect, there are various ways to connect the DVD+Hi-Fi  
VCR. Use connections described on pages 11-13.  
Please refer to the manuals of your TV, VCR, Stereo  
System or other devices as necessary to make the best  
connections.  
Caution  
With Cable Box  
If a converter is required in your cable system, follow the  
instruction below:  
The cable hookup permits both TV and DVD+Hi-Fi VCR opera-  
tion.  
Make sure the DVD+Hi-Fi VCR is connected directly to the

Be sure to match the speaker cable to the appropriate terminal on the connectors: + to + and – to –. If the cables are reversed,  
the sound will be distorted and will lack bass.  
When making the sound louder, adjust the sound level carefully to avoid excessive volume output to the speakers.  
Only 2-channel stereo (Front Left, Front Right & Subwoofer) is abailable in VCR mode, thus sound might not be heard from  
center or rear speakers during VCR playback. (For further details about sound mode, please refer to next page.)  
Do not remove the front covers of supplied speakers.  
Speaker Positioning  
For a normal setup, use 6 speakers (2 front speakers,  
1 center speaker, 2 rear speakers and a subwoofer).  
If you want to hear excellent bass sound or Dolby Digital  
surround, you should connect a subwoofer.  
Subwoofer

From your listening position, place the speakers an equal dis-  
tance away and with an interval of 45 degrees between speak-  
ers.

• Rear speakers  
Place left and right behind the listening area. These speakers  
recreate sound motion and atmosphere required for surround  
sound playback. For best results, do not install the rear speak-  
ers too far behind the listening position and install them at or  
above the level of the listener’s ears. It is also effective to direct  
the rear speakers towards a wall or ceiling to further disperse  
the sound.  
For smaller room size, if the audience is near to the rear wall.  
place the rear speakers opposite each other, and 24 - 36 inches  
above the listeners’ ears.

Glossary for Audio Stream & Surround mode  
Sound Mode  
You can enjoy surround sound simply by selecting one  
of the pre-programmed sound fields according to the  
program you want to listen to.  
Allows you to enjoy 5.1(or 6) discrete channels of high quality  
digital audio from DTS program sources such as discs, DVD  
and compact discs, etc. bearing the trademark. DTS Digital  
Surround delivers up to 6 channels of transparent audio and  
results in exceptional clarity throughout a true 360 degree  
sound field. The term DTS is a trademark of DTS Technology,  
LLC. Manufactured under license from DTS Technology, LLC.  
Each time you press the SOUND MODE button, the  
sound mode is changed in the following order;

You can change the sound mode of DVD (Dolby Digital, DTS,  
PRO LOGIC, etc.) by pressing the AUDIO button repeatedly on  
the remote during playback.  
Although DVD contents differ from disc to disc, the following  
explains the basic operation when this feature is used.  
Use this mode when playing movie or Dolby Digital 2 channel  
Each time you press AUDIO, the DVD+Hi-Fi VCR sound mode  
is changed in the following order;  
which carries the “  
” mark. This mode provides the effect  
of being in a movie theatre or live concert house-an effect with  
an intensity which can only be obtained through DOLBY PRO  
LOGIC SURROUND. The effect of the front/back/left/right  
movement of the sound image, as well as the sense of fixed  
position in the sound image, is much clearer and more dynam-  
ic than before.  
For your reference  
The DVD/CD Receiver memorizes the last mode  
setting for each source individually.  
(II)  
Dolby Pro Logic II creates five full-bandwidth output channels  
from two-channel sources. This is done using an advanced,  
high-purity matrix surround decoder that extracts the spatial  
properties of the original recording without adding any new  
sounds or tonal colorations.  
You can identify the encoding format of program  
software by looking at its packaging.  
- Dolby Digital discs are labeled with the  
- Dolby Surround encoded programs are labeled with  
the logo.  
logo.  
MOVIE mode:  
- DTS Digital Surround discs are marked with DTS.  
The Movie mode is for use with stereo television shows and all  
programs encoded in Dolby Surround. The result is enhanced  
soundfield directionality that approaches the quality of discrete  
5.1-channel sound.  
otes  
When you play sound tracks with 96kHz sampling frequen-  
cy, the output signals will be converted to 48kHz (sampling  
frequency).  
MUSIC mode:  
The Music mode is for use with any stereo music recordings.  
MATRIX mode:  
Sound Mode is not applicable when headphones are used.  
The Matrix mode is the same as the Music mode except that the  
directional enhancement logic is turned off. It may be used to  
enhance mono signals by making them seem “larger.” The Matrix  
mode may also find use in auto systems, where the fluctuations  
from poor FM stereo reception can otherwise cause disturbing  
surround signals from a logic decoder. The ultimate “cure” for  
poor FM stereo reception may be simply to force the audio to  
mono.  
3D SURROUND  
This unit can produce a 3D Surround effect, using 3D Surround  
Sound technology, which simulates multi-channel audio play-  
back from two conventional stereo speakers instead of the five  
or more speakers normally required to listen to multi-channel  
audio from a home theatre. This feature works with DVD discs  
encoded with Dolby Pro Logic and Dolby Digital audio tracks.  
BYPASS  
Software with multichannel surround audio signals is played accord-  
ing to the way it was recorded.

possible, thanks to digital audio technology. However,  
you may wish to compress the dynamic range of the

MP3  
WMA  
An MP3 file is audio data compressed by using the  
MPEG1 audio layer-3 file-coding scheme. We call  
files that have the “.mp3” file extension “MP3 files”.  
The player can not read an MP3 file that has a file  
extension other than “.mp3”.  
The DVD/CD receiver can play MP3/WMA formatted  
recordings on CD-ROM, CD-R or CD-RW discs.  
Before playing MP3/WMA recordings, read the notes on  
MP3/WMA Recordings on right.  
Insert a disc and close the tray.

technology.  
WMA(Windows Media Audio) offers double the audio  
compression of the MP3 format.  
MP3 WMA  
JPEG  
MP3/WMA Disc compatibility with this DVD/CD  
receiver is limited as follows:  
1. Sampling Frequency / only at 44.1kHz (MP3),  
32 - 44.1kHz (WMA)  
2. Bit rate / within 32 - 320kbps (MP3),

3. CD-R physical format should be “ISO 9660”  
4. If you record MP3/WMA files using the software  
which cannot create a FILE SYSTEM, for example  
“Direct-CD” etc., it is impossible to playback  
MP3/WMA files. We recommend that you use “Easy-  
CD Creator”, which creates an ISO9660 file system.  
5. A single session disc requires MP3/WMA files in the  
first track. If there is no MP3/WMA file in the 1st  
track, it cannot playback MP3/WMA files. If you wish  
to playback MP3/WMA files, format all the data in  
the disc or use a new one.  
6. File names should be named using 8 letters or less  
and must incorporate “.mp3” or “.wma” extension  
e.g. “********.MP3” or “********.WMA”.  
7. Do not use special letters such as “/ : * ? “ < > ” etc.  
8. Total number of files on the disc should be less than  
650.
