Various Surround Effects (DSP)
The DSP (Digital Signal Processing) surround m ode allows you to transform your living room into six different
sonic environm ents when listening to m usic or watching m ovies.
Midnight Listening Mode
When late night hours or other factors require that the volum e be kept low, the surround effects m ay tend to
becom e less than satisfactory. When the m idnight listening m ode is on, you can enjoy the effects of quality
surround sound even at low volum es.
Optical Digital Output
The digital signal input can be directly output to digital recording com ponents such as MD, DAT and CD-R from
the optical digital output jack to create digital recordings.
5.1 Channel Input
By connecting com ponents equipped with 5.1 channel output to the DVD 5.1 channel input on this unit, you can
enjoy 5.1 channel surround sound. Connections can be m ade to a DVD player or Multi channel decoder equipped
with 5.1 channel analog output jacks.
5 Channels of Independent Am plification
This receiver incorporates 5 independent 60 watt power am plifiers which enable high quality playback of Dolby
Digital sound. This construction provides im proved linearity and accurate reproduction of each channel for true
high fidelity reproduction from even the m ost dem anding Dolby Digital program sources.
Rem ote Control of Other Com ponents
The supplied rem ote control can be used to operate a variety of other com ponents sim ply by recalling the
appropriate preset code.
The Energy-saving Design
This unit is designed to use m inim al electricity when power is switched OFF (during Standby). Regarding the value
of the power consum ption in standby m ode, refer to “Specifications” on the back cover.

Position
• Install the left and right front speakers at equal distances from the TV.
m em o
• When installing speakers near the TV, we recom m end using m agnetically shielded speakers to prevent
possible interference such as distortion in the color of the TV screen. If you do not have m agnetically
shielded speakers and notice discoloration of the TV screen, place the speakers farther away from the TV.
• Install the center speaker above, below the TV so that the sound of the center channel is localized at the TV
screen.
CAUTION:
When installing the center speaker on top of the TV, be sure to secure it with tape or som e other suitable
m eans.
Otherwise, the speaker m ay fall from the TV due to external shocks such as earthquakes, and it m ay lead to
endangering those nearby or dam aging the speaker.
• If possible, install the surround speakers slightly above ear level.
• It m ay be difficult to obtain a cohesive surround effect if the surround speakers are installed farther away
from the listening position than the front and center speakers.

Dolby Digital
Dolby Digital is a com pression form at which records the
sound of 6 channels of the theater surround system
(Dolby Digital) on the m ovie film digital track. Of the 6
channels, the sub woofer channel is intended for bass
only, and because the frequency range is sm aller than
the m ain channel, it is expressed as 5.1 channel.
Dolby Digital is the nam e of the Dolby surround m ulti-
channel digital system that was developed after the
Dolby Surround System and Dolby Pro Logic Surround
System .
In reproducing audio signals, the sm aller the bit num ber
used, the lower the sound quality. With AC-3, drop in
auditory sound quality is prevented by using m asking
technology and digital filtering technology based on the
hum an auditory characteristics.
Laser disc form at
Laser discs are now available on the m arket in large
num bers. This m eans that the recording of different
form at audio signals on the laser disc raises the
im portant question of com patibility with existing laser
discs. Dolby Digital tracks on Laser Discs record signals
using the space of one analog audio channel so it will
m aintain com patibility with existing discs and players.
5.1 channel digital
surround track
4 channel analog
sound track (Matrix)
As shown in the following figure, the digital audio
sounds of Dolby Digital discs can be played back as
currently done. Analog sounds are played back by using
the other channel without the Dolby Digital signals for
m onaural audio signals.

Com parison w ith Dolby Pro Logic Surround
The num ber of m ovies m ade using Dolby Digital since
1992 has exceeded 300 and continues to increase. For
com pact disc players and laser disc digital sounds, 16
bits are used to sam ple the original analog audio
waveform and sam pling is carried out 44,100 tim es every
second. However because an enorm ous am ount of
recording signal data is required for the m ulti channel
system with this m ethod, AC-3 is used to com press the
data.
Dolby Digital is also known as the 5.1 channel system . It
is equipped with 5 channels (front left, front right, center,
surround left, surround right) in the frequency range
from 20 Hz to 20 kHz and an independent Low Frequency
Effect (LEF) channel. The sub woofer channel is also
called Low Frequency Effect (LFE).
The subwoofer channel can be used as desired to enjoy
strong bass sounds.
The following table shows the com parison with Dolby
Pro Logic Surround effects.
