About the supplied remote control  
Compared to standard remote controls, the remote control supplied with this receiver has several  
operation modes. These modes enable the remote control to control other audio/video components. In  
order to effectively use the remote control it is important to read the operating instructions and obtain a  
proper understanding of the remote control and how to switch its operation modes (etc.).  
Using the remote control without completely understanding its design and how to switch the operation  
modes may result in incorrect operations.

variety of high quality adjustable sound fields, like ARENA, “JAZZ  
CLUB, “THEATER, “STADIUM” and DISCO. It is compatible with  
almost any kind of program source.

£
DVD 6-channel input  
Dolby Digital  
If you own a DVD player equipped with 6-channel output, this receiver  
allows you to obtain the full surround sound impact of DVD source  
material featuring multi-channel encoding. Since the source signals are  
digital and each channel is input independently, the resulting ambience  
is far superior to what can be achieved with conventional surround sound  
systems.  
The DOLBY DIGITAL mode lets you enjoy full digital surround from  
software processed in the Dolby Digital format. Dolby Digital provides up  
to 5.1 channels of independent digital audio for better sound quality and  
more powerful presence than conventional Dolby Surround.  
Dolby PRO LOGIC II  
DOLBY PRO LOGIC II, whilst totally compatible with its predecessor  
PRO LOGIC, provides greater advantages in surround sound. It allows  
user to enjoy the conventionalstereo or Dolby Surround with a convincing  
“5.1 like” presentation. PRO LOGICIIoffers specialfeatures forcontrolling  
the overall spatial, dimensionality and frontal sound field imaging. PRO  
LOGIC II produces an impressive surround sound from video software  
ACTIVE EQ  
Active EQ mode will produce a more dynamic sound quality in any  
conditions. You can enjoy a more impressive sound effect when you  
switch ACTIVE EQ ON during Dolby Digital and DTS playback.  
Universal IR (InfraRed) remote control  
marked  
and three-dimensional space from music CD.  
In addition to the basic receiver, the remote control supplied with this  
receiver can also operate almost all of your remote controllable audio and  
video components. Just follow the simple setup procedure to register  
the components you have connected.  
When listening to music, you will be able to enjoy the experience of sheer  
STEREO surround sound.  
DTS  
DTS (Digital Theater System) is a 5.1 channel digital audio format that  
provides five full-spectrum channels and one low-frequency (subwoofer)  
channel for unprecedented clarity, optimum channel separation and a  
(wide) dynamic range.  
In the DTS mode, the 5.1 channel digital input from a DTS CD, LD or DVD  
disc (carrying the “DTS” marking) can be played in Digital Surround.  
Important:  
When a DTS disc is played on a CD, LD or DVD player, noise may be  
output from the analog output. It is recommended that you connect the  
digital output of the player to the digital input of this unit.

2 Press the INPUT MODE key.  
Analog connections  
Each press sw itches the setting as follow s:  
Audio connections are made using RCA pin cords. These cables transfer  
stereo audio signal in an “analog” form. This means the audio signal

have 2 plugs at each end, red for the right channel and white for the left  
channel. These cables are usually packed together with the source unit,  
or are available at your local electronics retailer.

the indoor antenna when you connect one outdoors.  
If the left and right speakers are connected inversely or the speaker  
cords are connected with reversed polarity, the sound will be  
unnatural with ambiguous acoustic imaging. Be sure to connect the  
speakers correctly.

Speaker impedance  
After confirming the speaker impedance indications printed on the  
rearpanelofthe receiver, connect speakers with matching impedance  
ratings. Using speakers with a rated impedance other than that  
indicated on the rear panel of the receiver could result in malfunctions  
or damage to the speakers or receiver.

When using more than one CD player (etc.) only the one connected  
to the specified jacks may be connected for system control.  
Some CD players and cassette decks are not compatible with the

Surround modes  
Although a full set of speakers (front left, right, and center, surround  
left and right, and a subwoofer) is required for true 5.1 channel Dolby  
Digital surround sound, this receiver lets you enjoy Dolby Digital (and  
Dolby Surround) program sources, even if you connect only the front

Although only Dolby Digital soundtracks incorporate a separate low

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 software  
marked  
). This is achieved with an intelligent, built-in  
feedback logic design, a matrix surround decoding and the decoding  
of stereo, full bandwidth surround outputs. The PRO LOGIC II modes  
programmed into this receiver are “MOVIE, “MUSIC” and PRO  
LOGIC. The “MOVIE” mode of the PRO LOGIC II has preset  
characteristics to produce a calibrated, high-level surround sound  
playbackwhile the “MUSIC” mode has user-adjustable characteristics  
to offer the three optional controls, like Dimension”, “Center  
Width” and “Panorama” 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” extends the  
front stereo image to include the surround speakers for an exciting  
“wraparound” effect with side wall imaging.

DTS mode  
DVD 6-channel mode  
Using a DVD player or the like equipped with six (5.1) output channels  
and the receiver, you can enjoy multi-channel encoded DVD source  
material in all its splendor. Since the source signals are digital and  
each channel is input independently, the resulting sound quality,  
sense of spaciousness, and dynamic range are superb.  
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 described 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.  
All models are incorporated with the DTS decoder.  
The indication “LFE” appears in the display during DVD 6-channel  
mode selection.  
£
DTS has a .1 or LFE channel.  
The indication “LFE” appears in the display when a signal is being  
input for this channel.

DSP mode  
The DSP mode lets you add the atmosphere of a live concert or hall to  
almost anytype ofprogram source. These modes are particularlyeffective  
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!  
What's DSP?  
DSP stands for Digital Signal Processor.  
The way a sound is heard in an actual environment depends on a  
variety of different factors. One of the most important is reverberation  
(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.
