How to use the antenna plug (included)  
Only for Australia and New Zealand  
Two types of wire are most commonly used for connection from  
the antenna: 300 parallel feeder wire or 75 coaxial cable. For  
best resistance to outside interference, the use of 75 coaxial  
cable is suggested.

DSP sound modes  
DSP SOUND MODE  
DIGITAL INPUT  
The digital sound processor (DSP) in this unit can decode Dolby  
Digital and DTS digital signals. It automatically determines the type  
of signal, PCM, Dolby Digital, or DTS, and processes it accordingly.  
The DSP can add surround-like effects to stereo sources (analogue  
or PCM signals).  
Choose from the STEREO, SURROUND, or SFC modes.  
The DSP may interfere with radio reception. You can turn it off if this  
occurs ( page 22).  
\
Output is in stereo when you turn the DSP off so sound is only  
heard through the front speakers.  
Note  
¡PCM with a sampling frequency of 44.1 kHz is the digital signal  
format normally found on CDs. Some DVDs also use this format  
but often with a higher sampling rate.

Engage the DTS FIX mode if this occurs.
