How to connect speakers cords  
Connecting the subwoofer speaker  
For each speaker, connect the (+) and (–) terminals on the  
rear panel to the (+) and (–) terminals marked on the  
speakers respectively.  
By connecting a subwoofer, you can enhance the bass or  
reproduce the original LFE signals recorded in the digital  
software.  
Connect the input jack of a powered subwoofer to the SUB-  
WOOFER OUT jack on the rear panel, using a cable with  
RCA pin plugs (not supplied).  
1 Twist and remove the insulation at the end of each  
speaker cord (not supplied).  
• Refer also to the manual supplied with your subwoofer.  
2 Press and hold the clamp of the speaker terminal (1),  
then insert the speaker cord (2).  
Note:  
3 Release the clamp.  
You can place a subwoofer wherever you like since bass sound is  
non-directional. Normally place it in front of you.  
About the speaker impedance  
The required speaker impedance of the front speakers  
To obtain the best possible sound from this system, place  
all the speakers except the subwoofer at the same  
distance from the listening position with each speaker’s  
front faced toward the listener.  
Then, change the subwoofer and speaker settings to fit  
your listening conditions (see pages 24 to 26).  
You can set the speakers quickly according to the  
number of speakers you have connected.  
differs depending on whether both the FRONT SPEAKERS  
1 and FRONT SPEAKERS 2 terminals are used or only one  
of them is used.  
• When you connect only one pair of front speakers, use  
front speakers with 8 16 impedance.  
• When you connect both pairs of front speakers, use front  
speakers with 16 32 impedance.  
See “Setting Speakers Quickly” on page 23.

surround elements by down-mixing the center and surround  
channel signals into the front channel signals.  
• When multi-channel software is played back with  
Recording mode activated, the sounds are down-mixed  
and come out through the front speakers only.  
• Refer also to the instruction manuals supplied with your TV.  
For DVD AUDIO ONLY: When down-mixing is prohibited  
on the disc, this function does not take effect.  
You cannot change the scanning mode when PALis  
selected as the color system of this unit. See page 8.  
You can select the picture source according to the original  
picture type (film or video source). See “PICTURE  
SOURCE” on page 55.

You can adjust the speaker output levels for the activated  
speakers.  
You can adjust the output level for center and/or surround  
speakers only when one of the proper Surround modes is  
activated (see “Relation between Surround modes and  
adjustable items” on page 33).  
About auto memory  
This unit memorizes the settings for each source:  
• when you turn off the power (see page 12),  
• when you change the source (see page 12),  
• when you change the source name (see page 13), and  
• when you change the analog/digital input mode (see  
page 14).  
Adjust the speaker output level within a range of –10 dB to  
+10 dB in 1 step intervals (“0” is the initial setting).  
When you change the source, the memorized settings for  
the newly selected source are automatically recalled.  
The following can be stored for each source:  
• Analog/digital input mode (see page 14)  
• Input attenuator mode (see page 15)

Creating Realistic Sound Fields  
You can use the following Surround modes to reproduce a  
realistic sound field:  
7 Dolby surround  
• Dolby Pro Logic II  
7 Digital multi-channel surround  
• Dolby Digital  
DTS Digital Surround**  
Used to reproduce multi-channel sound tracks of software  
encoded with DTS Digital Surround ( ).  
To use software encoded with DTS Digital Surround,  
connect the source component using the digital terminal on  
the rear of this unit. (See page 11.)  
• DTS Digital Surround  
7 DAP (Digital Acoustic Processor) modes  
7 All Channel Stereo  
DTS Digital Surround is another discrete multi-channel  
digital audio format available on CD, LD, and DVD software.  
Compared to Dolby Digital, audio compression ratio is  
relatively low. This fact allows DTS Digital Surround format to  
add breadth and depth to the reproduced sounds. As a  
result, DTS Digital Surround features natural, solid and clear  
sound.  
I Dolby surround  
Dolby Pro Logic II*  
Dolby Pro Logic II is a playback format to decode into 5.1-  
channel from all 2-channel sources—stereo sources and  
Dolby surround encoded sources.  
Matrix-based encoding/decoding method for Dolby Pro Logic  
II makes no limitation for the cutoff frequency of the surround  
treble and enables stereo surround sound compared to  
conventional Dolby Pro Logic.  
Note:  
Dolby Digital or DTS software can be roughly grouped into two  
categoriesmulti-channel (up to 5.1-channel) and 2-channel  
software. To enjoy surround sounds while playing Dolby Digital 2-  
channel or DTS software, you can use Dolby Pro Logic II.  
You cannot select Dolby Pro Logic II when playing back  
DVD AUDIO.  
Typical multi-channel (5.1-channel) reproduction  
Dolby Pro Logic II enables you to reproduce spacious sound  
from original sound without adding any new sounds and tonal  
colorations.  
Dolby Pro Logic II has two modes—Movie mode and Music

To enjoy the software encoded with Dolby Digital, connect  
the source component using the digital terminal on the rear  
of this unit. (See page 11.)  
The sound heard in a live club, dance club, hall or pavilion  
consists of direct sound and indirect sound—early reflections  
and reflections from behind. Direct sounds reach the listener  
directly without any reflection. On the other hand, indirect  
sounds are delayed by the distances of the ceiling and walls  
(see the diagram on the next page).  
Dolby Digital 5.1-channel encoding method (so-called  
discrete multi-channel digital audio format) records and  
digitally compresses the left front channel, right front channel,  
center channel, left surround channel, right surround  
channel, and LFE channel signals.  
Since each channel is completely independent from the other  
channel signals to avoid interference, you can obtain much  
better sound quality with many stereo and surround effects.  
These indirect sounds are important elements of the acoustic  
surround effects. The DAP mode can reproduce a realistic  
sound field by adding these indirect sounds.

DVD Player Operations  
Note on Region Code  
Disc Information  
Playable disc types  
This unit has been designed to play back the following discs:  
DVD VIDEO, DVD AUDIO, Video CD (VCD)*, Super Video CD  
(SVCD)*, audio CD*, CD-R, and CD-RW.  
DVD players and DVD VIDEO have their own Region Code  
numbers. This unit can play back only DVD VIDEO recorded  
with the color system of NTSC/PAL whose Region Code  
numbers include “4.”  
Ex.:  
* This instruction refers to Video CD as VCD, Super Video CD  
as SVCD, and audio CD as CD.  
If a DVD VIDEO with the wrong Region Code numbers is  
loaded, “REGION CODE ERROR!” appears on the TV and  
playback cannot start.

Mark (Logo)  
DVD VIDEO  
Notes on CD-R and CD-RW  
• User-edited CD-R (Recordable) and CD-RW (ReWritable)  
can be played back only if they are already “finalized.”  
• The unit can play back CD-R or CD-RW recorded on a  
personal computer if they have been recorded in the audio  
CD format or in MP3 format.  
DVD AUDIO  
VCD  
The unit can also play back CD-R or CD-RW if MP3 files or  
JPEG files are recorded on them.  
However, they may not be played back because of their  
disc characteristics, recording conditions, or damage or  
stain on them. Especially, the configuration and  
characteristics of an MP3 disc or a JPEG disc is  
determined by the writing (encoding) software and  
hardware used for recording. Therefore, due to the software  
and hardware used, the following symptoms may occur:  
– Some discs may not be played back.  
SVCD  
CD  
COMPACT  
DIGITAL AUDIO  
CD-R  
– Some tracks on an MP3 disc are skipped and may not  
be played back normally.  
– Some files on a JPEG disc may be played back  
distortedly.  
• Before playing back CD-R or CD-RW, read their instructions  
or cautions carefully.  
CD-RW  
• CD-RW may require a longer readout time. It is caused by  
the fact that the reflectance of CD-RW is lower than for  
regular audio CD.  
• This unit can also play back MP3 and JPEG (still picture)  
files recorded on CD-R and CD-RW. For details about MP3,  
see “MP3 Disc Playback” on pages 49 and 50 and about  
JPEG, see “JPEG Disc Playback” on pages 51 and 52.  
IMPORTANT: Before playing a disc, make sure of the  
following...  
• Check the connection with the TV.  
• Turn on the TV and select the correct input mode on the  
TV to view the pictures or on-screen indications on the  
TV screen.  
The following discs cannot be played back:  
DVD-ROM, DVD-RAM, DVD-RW, CD-ROM, CD-I (CD-I  
Ready), Photo CD, etc.  
Playing back these discs will generate noise and damage  
the speakers.  
• For disc playback, you can change the initial setting to  
your preference. (See pages 53 to 61.)  
• On some DVD VIDEO, DVD AUDIO, VCD, or SVCD, their  
actual operations may be different from what is explained in  
this manual. This is due to the disc programming and disc  
structure, but not a malfunction of this unit.  
If “ ” appears on the TV screen when you press a  
button, the disc cannot accept an operation you have  
tried to do, or data required for that operation is not  
recorded on the disc.  
You can play back DVD-R recorded with the DVD VIDEO  
format, but some may not be played back because of the  
disc characteristics or recording conditions.  
NOTICE: In some cases, without showing “ ,” operations  
will not be accepted.  
To change the color system of this unit, see page 8.

DVD Player Operations  
On a JPEG disc, each still picture is recorded as a file. Files  
are usually grouped into a folder. Folders can also include  
other folders, creating hierarchical folder layers.  
This unit simplifies the hierarchical construction of a disc and  
manages folders by “groups.”  
• This unit can recognize and play back up to 150 files per  
group and up to 99 groups per disc. Files whose numbers  
exceed 150 and groups whose numbers exceed 99 cannot  
be played back.  
7 Disc structure  
DVD VIDEO consists of “titles,” and each title may be  
divided into some “chapters.”  
For example, if a DVD VIDEO contains some movies, each  
movie may have its own title number and it may be further  
divided into some chapters. In a DVD VIDEO Karaoke, each  
song may have its own title number, but it may not be further  
divided into chapters.

DVD AUDIO consists of “groups,” and each group may be  
divided into some “tracks.”  
Some DVD AUDIOs also contain a “bonus group” that can be  
played back by entering the “key number” (a kind of  
password). Usually the contents of “bonus group” are not  
open to the public.  
7 Playback Control function (PBC)—VCD and  
SVCD only  
The Playback Control function enables menu-driven operation.  
Menu-driven playback  
Note that most DVD AUDIOs include much information in  
addition to audio, such as still pictures, movies, and text.  
A selection menu is displayed when you start playing a VCD  
and SVCD with the Playback Control feature. The selection  
menu shows a list of numbers for selection. Some discs may  
show moving pictures or a divided screen.  
You can interact with the screen using a menu display to  
select and play an entry.

In general, each track has its own track number. (On some  
discs, each track may also be divided by Indexes. This unit is  
not compatible with Index function.)

Glossary for DVD Player  
Aspect ratio  
Multi-channel  
The ratio of vertical and horizontal sizes of a displayed  
image. The horizontal vs. vertical ratio of conventional TVs  
is 4:3 and that of wide-screen TVs is 16:9.  
DVD VIDEO has been designed to have each soundtrack  
constitute one sound field. Multi-channel refers to a  
structure of sound tracks having three or more channels.  
Chapter  
Multi-language  
The smallest division on DVD VIDEO. It is a division of a  
title and similar to a track for CD or VCD.  
When a title is created to cope with multiple languages, it  
is generally called a multilanguage title.  
Component video signal  
Packed PCM (PCM: Pulse Code Modulation)  
A video signal system where parts of information  
necessary for reproducing image signal comprised of the  
three primary colors of light are transmitted via separate  
signal lines. Types of signal, such as R/G/B, Y/PB/PR, etc.,  
are available.  
A format for DVD AUDIO with a compression ratio of  
about 2:1. This supports up to 192 kHz/24 bit and allows  
PCM signals to be completely recreated.  
Parental Lock  
A feature of this system to automatically determine  
whether or not to reproduce particular DVD VIDEO  
software by comparing its parental level (a measure of  
undesirability of scenes, etc. from educational viewpoint)  
set for the software beforehand with that set on this  
system by the user; if the software’s level is less restrictive  
than the user-set level, it will be reproduced.  
Composite video signal  
A video signal comprised of three kinds of signals  
combined: an image signal made up of luminance and  
chrominance signals using the frequency multiplication  
technique, burst signal providing the basis for color  
reproduction, and synchronization signal.  
Disc menu  
Playback control (PBC)  
A screen display prepared for allowing selection of images,  
sounds, subtitles, multi-angle, etc. recorded on DVD  
VIDEO.  
Refers to the signal recorded on VCD/SVCD for  
controlling reproduction. By using menu screens  
recorded on VCD/SVCD that supports PBC, you can enjoy  
interactive-type software as well as software having a  
search function.  
Interlaced scanning  
In the conventional video system, a picture is shown on  
the display monitor in two halves. The Interlaced scanning  
system places lines of the second half of the picture in-  
between lines of the first half of the picture.  
Progressive scanning  
By progressive scanning, all the horizontal lines of a  
picture are displayed at one time as a single frame. This  
system can convert the interlaced video from DVD VIDEO  
into progressive format for connection to a progressive TV.  
It dramatically increases the vertical resolution.  
JPEG  
A still-picture data compression system proposed by the  
Joint Photographic Expert Group, which features little  
distortion in image quality in spite of its high compression  
ratio.  
Region code  
A system for allowing discs to be played back only in the  
regions designated beforehand. All the countries in the  
world are divided into six regions and each region is  
identified by a specified region code (or region number).  
If the region code of a disc matches that of a player, the  
player can play back the disc.  
Letter box  
A method of displaying wide images like movies in on a  
4:3 TV screen with no part of the image deleted by  
placing black bands on the top and bottom of the screen.  
This name has derived from the screen form looking  
literally like a letter box.  
Sampling frequency  
Frequency of sampling data when analog data is  
converted to digital data. Sampling frequency numerically  
represents how many times the original analog signal is  
sampled per second.  
Linear PCM (PCM: Pulse Code Modulation)  
A system for converting analog sound signal to digital  
signal for later processing with no data compression used  
in conversion.  
Surround  
MP3  
A system for creating three-dimensional sound fields full  
of realism by arranging multiple speakers around the  
listener.  
A file format with a sound data compression system.  
“MP3” is the abbreviation of Motion Picture Experts Group  
1 (or MPEG-1) Audio Layer 3. By using MP3 format, one  
CD-R or CD-RW can contain about 10 times as much data  
volume as a regular CD can.  
Transfer rate  
The rate of transferring digital data. Usually the measure  
is in bit per second (bps). The DVD system applies a  
variable transfer rate system for high efficiency.  
Multi-angle  
By recording multiple scenes progressing at the same  
time in a single title, the user can select view angles. This  
feature is called the multi-angle function.
