True home theater sound  
This receiver incorporates a wide variety of surround modes to bring you  
maximum enjoyment from your video software. Select a surround mode  
according to your equipment or the software you are going to play and  
Neo:6  
Neo:6 is a new technology which was developed by DTS. It can

movie playback and "MUSIC" mode is for music playback.  
enjoy!  
§
Dolby Digital and Dolby Digital EX  
DSP surround modes  
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.  
As for Dolby Digital EX, it creates six full-bandwidth output channels  
from the 5.1 channel sources. This is done using a matrix decoder that  
derives three surround channels from the two in the original recording.  
For best results, Dolby Digital EX should be used with movie  
soundtracks recorded with Dolby Digital Surround EX.  
The DSP (Digital Signal Processor) used for this receiver incorporates  
a 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  
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.  
Dolby PRO LOGIC IIx and 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 conventional stereo or Dolby Surround with a  
convincing “5.1 like” presentation. PRO LOGIC II offers special  
features for controlling the overall spatial, dimensionality and frontal  
sound field imaging. PRO LOGIC II produces an impressive surround  
ACTIVE EQ  
ACTIVE EQ mode will produce a more dynamic sound quality in any  
condition. You can enjoy a more impressive sound effect when  
ACTIVE EQ is turned on.  
sound from video software marked  
and three-  
dimensional space from music CD. When listening to music, you will  
be able to enjoy the experience of sheer STEREO surround sound.  
DOLBY PRO LOGIC IIx enhanced DOLBY PRO LOGIC II’s features.  
It creates 6.1 channel and 7.1 channel surround sound from stereo or  
5.1 channel signals. This feature provides you an astonishing ambience  
effect which makes you feel you are surrounded by natural sound.  
Especially 7.1 channel surround sound can produce real back sound  
from Surround Back speakers.  
SPEAKER EQ  
SPEAKER EQ function is to adjust the receiver’s audio output  
characteristics with the speakers’ characteristics which differs  
depending on the size of the speakers. Especially for the music sound  
source playback, the reproduced sound becomes more natural when  
adjusting the output characteristics. When activating the SPEAKER  
EQ function, you will be able to enjoy a more natural and dynamic  
sound experience even with small size speakers.  
DTS and DTS-ES  
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.  
Universal IR (InfraRed) remote control  
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.  
DTS-ES (Extended Surround) presents 6.1 channels surround system  
with additional Surround Back channel which evolved from the  
conventional 5.1 channels surround system. DTS-ES format that was  
recorded in DVD, CD or LD comprises of two modes. DTS-ES Discrete  
6.1 produce the discrete surround back which is completely  
independent and DTS-ES Matrix 6.1 produces the surround back  
which synthesised within the left and right surround channels using  
matrix technology. DTS-ES has perfect compatibility with the  
conventional 5.1 channels surround system. 6.1 channels surround  
with an additional surround back presents a more natural presence  
and surround effects by increasing the impression of the sound  
image from back.  
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.  
DTS 96/24  
DTS 96/24 made it possible to achieve a wide frequency range of over  
40 kHz by increasing the sampling frequency to 96 or 88.2 kHz.  
Moreover, DTS 96/24’s ability of 24 bit resolution offers the same  
frequency band and dynamic range as 96 kHz/24 bit PCM.  
DTS 96/24 is, as with conventional DTS Surround, compatible with  
multi-channels. Therefore, sources recorded using DTS 96/24  
technologies can be played in high sampling frequency, multi-channel  
audio with ordinary DVDs and CDs.

LISTEN MODE  
Analog connections  
Audio connections are made using RCA pin cords. These cables transfer  
stereo audio signal in an “analog” form. This means the audio signal  
corresponds to the actual audio of two channels. These cables usually  
have 2 plugs on each end, one red for the right channel and one white for  
the left channel. These cables are usually packed together with the  
source unit, or are available at your local electronics retailer.

In DTS play mode  
1 FULL AUTO (digital input, analog input)  
2 DIGITAL MANUAL (digital input)  
If operation is not possible or an erroneous display appears, even  
though all connections have been made properly, reset the  
microcomputer referring to “In case of difficulty”.  
w
In CD/DVD, VIDEO 2, VIDEO 3 or DVD/6CH play mode  
1 FULL AUTO (digital input, analog input)  
2 DIGITAL MANUAL (digital input)  
3 6CH INPUT (DVD/6CH input)  
4 ANALOG (analog input)  
Digital input:  
Select this setting to play digital signals from a DVD, CD, or LD  
player.  
Analog input:  
Select this setting to play analog signals from a cassette deck, VCR,  
or record player.  
Auto detect:  
In “FULL AUTO” mode (AUTO DETECT indicator light up), the  
receiver detects the digital or analog input signals automatically.  
Priority is given to digital signal during input mode selection. The  
receiver will select the input mode and listening mode automatically  
during playback to match the type of input signal (Dolby Digital,  
PCM, DTS) and the speaker setting. The OPTICAL and COAXIAL  
indicator on the display will light up when digital signal is detected.  
If the input signal is analog, the ANALOG indicator will light up.  
To keep the receiver set to the currently selected listening mode,  
use the INPUT MODE key to select “DIGITAL MANUAL” (manual  
sound). However, even when this setting is selected, there may be  
cases in which the listening mode is selected automatically to  
match a Dolby Digital source signal depending on the combination  
of listening mode and source signal.  
At DIGITAL MANUAL, if the audio reproduction stops in the middle  
due to change in the input signals, etc. press the LISTEN MODE  
Knob.  
If the INPUT MODE key is pressed quickly, sound may not be  
produced. Press the INPUT MODE key again.

Dolby Digital  
DTS  
The Dolby Digital surround format lets you enjoy up to 5.1  
channels of digital surround sound from Dolby Digital program  
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 de-  
scribed 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.  
sources (such as Laserdisc or DVD software marked  
).  
Compared with previous Dolby surround, Dolby Digital provides  
even better sound quality, greater spatial accuracy, and improved  
dynamic range.  
Dolby Digital EX  
Dolby Digital EX is an extension of Dolby Digital technology, Dolby  
Digital EX creates six full-bandwidth output channels from 6.1-  
channel sources. This is done using a matrix decoder that derives  
three surround channels from the two in the original recording.  
This is achieved by using three different surround signals, sur-  
round left, surround right, and surround back, each driving its own  
array of speakers. Think of it as adding a center channel for the rear  
speakers, which give more diffuse and natural surround effect,  
even if you wanted the ability to completely encircle the audience  
with sound, positioning sound effects exactly where they would  
be heard in real life. For best results, Dolby Digital EX should be  
used with movie soundtracks recorded with Dolby Digital Sur-  
round EX which contain a digital flag that will automatically  
activate this feature. However, for titles released prior to late  
2001, this feature has to be activated manually.  
All models are incorporated with the DTS decoder.  
DTS-ES  
DTS-ES (Digital Theater System-Extended Surround) presents 6.1  
channels surround system with additional Surround Back channel  
which evolved from the conventional 5.1 channels surround  
system. DTS-ES format that was recorded in DVD, CD or LD  
comprises of two modes. DTS-ES Discrete 6.1 produces the  
discrete surround back which is completely independent and DTS-  
ES Matrix 6.1 produces the surround back which synthesised  
within the left and right surround channels using matrix technol-  
ogy. DTS-ES has perfect compatibility with the conventional 5.1  
channels surround system. 6.1 channels surround with an addi-  
tional surround back presents a more natural presence and sur-  
round effects by increasing the impression of the sound image  
from back. Programs which are recorded using DTS-ES technol-  
ogy consist of information flags which will be able to control the  
Discrete and Matrix mode. Thus, it can automatically select the  
best matched mode.  
This model lets you enjoy Dolby Digital (and Dolby Surround)  
program sources, even if you connect only the Front Speakers.  
However, in order to enjoy the benefit of true 6.1 channel Dolby  
Digital Surround EX sound or 5.1 channel Dolby Digital Surround  
sound, KENWOOD recommends that you connect a full set of  
speakers.  
Although only Dolby Digital soundtracks incorporate a separate  
low frequency channel, connecting a subwoofer will also improve  
deep bass performance in the other surround modes.  
Neo:6  
The indication “LFE” appears in the display when a signal is being  
Neo:6 is a new technology which was developed by DTS. It can  
produce high grade 6 channels surround with an astonishing  
fidelity from 2 channels content. Neo:6 has 2 modes, “CINEMA”

DTS 96/24  
DTS 96/24 made it possible to achieve a wide frequency range of  
over 40 kHz by increasing the sampling frequency to 96 or 88.2  
kHz. Moreover, DTS 96/24’s ability of 24 bit resolution offers the  
same frequency band and dynamic range as 96 kHz/24 bit PCM.  
DTS 96/24 is, as with conventional DTS Surround, compatible with  
multi-channels. Therefore, sources recorded using DTS 96/24  
technologies can be played in high sampling frequency, multi-  
channel audio with ordinary DVDs and CDs.

DSP mode  
Surround play  
The DSP mode lets you add the atmosphere of a live concert or hall  
to almost any type of program source. These modes are particu-  
larly effective 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!  
The DTS compatible models can reproduce a CD, DVD, or LD carrying the  
DTS mark.  
DOLBY DIGITAL can be used when playing DVD or LD software bearing  
the  
mark and DOLBY DIGITAL format digital broadcasts (etc.).  
DOLBY PRO LOGIC can be used when playing video, DVD, or LD  
software bearing the  
mark.  
What's DSP?  
DSP stands for Digital Signal Processor.  
DSP  
INPUT MODE  
The way a sound is heard in an actual environment depends on a  
variety of different factors. One of the most important is rever-  
beration (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.

Using a DVD player or the like equipped with six (5.1) output  
channels and this model, 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 indication “6CH INPUT” appears in the display during DVD 6-  
channel mode selection.

Preparations  
• Turn ON related components.  
• Complete “Preparing for surround sound” (speaker settings).  
&
• Use the Input Selector keys to select the component you wish to play  
back with surround sound.  
• Use the INPUT MODE key to select the input mode (analog or digital)  
for the source you wish to play back.

• Noise will be produced when a DTS source is played by selecting the  
analog input.  
1Start playing the video software.  
Use the LISTEN MODE knob or Listen Mode 5/ keys to  
2
select the listening mode.  
The listening mode settings are stored separately for each input. If  
the input mode is set to full auto (“AUTO DETECT” lights), the  
receiver selects the optimal listening mode automatically based on  
the type of input signal and the speaker settings.  
Each turn of the LISTEN MODE knob or press of the Listen Mode  
5/ keys switches the setting as listed below.  
The listening mode settings are different depending on the type  
of input signal.  
Dolby Digital Surround EX compliant disc :  
Dolby Digital Surround EX compliant disc contains identification  
signals. When you choose FULL AUTO during “Input mode set-  
tings” (8), this amplifier detects the identification signals and  
change the LISTEN mode to the DOLBY DIGITAL EX (Dolby Digital  
Surround EX mode) automatically.  
But sometimes we find some discs which are Dolby Digital Sur-  
round EX compliant disc but it does not contain the identification  
signals. If you find the notice like “Surround EX” on the label of disc  
or package, you can choose DOLBY DIGITAL EX, then you can  
enjoy Dolby Digital Surround EX sound.

When watching movies at night , you might not be able to raise the volume as  
loud as normal. Midnight mode compresses the dynamic range of previously  
specified heavy sound passage of the Dolby Digital and DTS sound track (like  
scenes with sudden increases in volume) to minimize the difference in volume  
between the scenes with heavy sound passage and scenes with normal sound  
passage. This makes it easy to hear all of the sound track, even when listening

Resetting the Microcomputer  
The microcomputer may malfunction (unit cannot be operated, or  
shows an erroneous display) if the power cord is unplugged while  
the power is ON, or due to some other external factor. If this  
happens, execute the following procedure to reset the  
microcomputer and return the unit to its normal operating  
condition.  
Unplug the power cord from the wall outlet, then plug it  
back in while holding down the POWER ON/STANDBY  
key.
