This manual is divided into four sections: Preparations, Operations, Remote  
Control, and Additional Information.  
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 enjoy!  
ª
Preparations  
Showsyouhowtoconnectyouraudioandvideocomponentstothereceiver  
and prepare the surround processor.  
Home THX Cinema  
We will guide you to make setting up your system as easy as possible.  
However, since this receiver works with all of your audio and video compo-  
nents, connecting the system can be fairly complex.  
THX Select incorporates a complex multichannel digital audio program  
materials such as Dolby Digital, PRO LOGIC & DTS which enables  
multichannel decoding.  
Preparations  
This system features Re-equalization (Re-EQ), Timbre Matching, Adaptive  
Decorrelation, Bass Peak Level Manager and Loudspeaker Position Time  
Synchronization, which reproduces similar cinematic effects in the home  
environment.  
Operations  
Shows you how to operate the various functions available from the receiver.  
Remote Control  
Dolby Digital  
Shows you how to operate other components using the remote control, as  
wellasadetailedexplanationofallremotecontroloperations. Onceyouhave  
registered your components with the proper setup codes, you’ll be able to  
operate both this receiver and your other AV components (TV, VCR, DVD  
player, LD player, CD player, etc.) using the remote control supplied with this  
receiver.  
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 advantage in surround sound. It allows  
the users 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 sound from

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 3 Stereo  
This surround system reproduces theater-like surround sound from video  
software marked  
.
The 3 STEREO mode will redirect the Surround signal to the front left and  
right speakers when only the front and center speakers are used.  
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:  
WhenaDTSdiscisplayedonaCD,LDorDVDplayer,noisemaybeoutput  
from the analog output. It is recommended that you connect the digital  
output of the player to the digital input of this unit.  
Multi channel music (SRS Circle Surround  
)
SRS Circle surround enables you to listen to multi channel sound from the  
stereo source. We assume you have already enjoyed listening to Dolby  
digitalsound/DTSmultichannelsoundwithyourmultispeakers. Now, this  
time try listening to the stereo source (ex. Audio CD) using your multi  
speakers. You may discover a new type of “stereo” sound through SRS  
Circle Surround.  
DSP surround modes  
The DSP (Digital Signal Processor) used for this receiver incorporates a  
varietyofhighqualityadjustablesoundfields, likeARENA”, “JAZZCLUB”,  
“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  
allowsyoutoobtainthefullsurroundsoundimpactofDVDsourcematerial  
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.

Setting up the system  
Make connections as shown on the following pages.  
When connecting the related system components, be sure  
to also refer to the instruction manuals supplied with the  
components you are connecting.  
Do not connect the power cord to a wall outlet until all  
connections are completed.  
Input mode settings  
CD/DVD, DVD/6ch, VIDEO2and VIDEO3inputseachincludejacksfor  
digital audio input and analog audio input.  
You must select beforehand which type of input is to be used for each  
connected component.  
7
The initial factory settings for audio signal playback (CD/DVD,  
DVD/6ch) and (VIDEO2, VIDEO3) are digital and analog respec-  
tively.  
To use the analog audio input for playback instead (if, for example, you  
have connected a VCR to the VIDEO2 or VIDEO3 input), you must set  
the input mode for the corresponding input to the analog mode.  
After completing connections and turning on the receiver, follow the  
steps below.  
DTS disclaimer clause  
DTS Digital Surround™ is a discrete 5.1 channel digital audio format  
available on CD, LD, and DVD software which consequently cannot be  
decoded and played back inside most CD, LD, or DVD players. For this  
reason, when DTS-encoded software is played back through the analog  
outputs of the CD, LD, or DVD player, excessive noise will be exhibited.  
To avoid possible damage to the audio system, proper precautions  
should taken by the consumer if the analog outputs are connected  
directly to an amplification system. To enjoy DTS Digital Surround™  
playback, an external 5.1 channel DTS Digital Surround™ decoder  
system must be connected to the digital output (S/P DIF, AES/EBU, or  
TosLink) of the CD, LD or DVD player.

Notes  
1. Be sure to insert all connection cords securely. If their connections are  
imperfect, the sound may not be produced or noise may interfere.  
2. Be sure to remove the power cord from the AC outlet before plugging or  
unplugginganyconnectioncords.Plugging/unpluggingconnectioncords  
without disconnecting the power cord can cause malfunctions and may  
damage the unit.  
INPUT MODE  
1 Use the INPUT SELECTOR knob to select CD/DVD, DVD/6ch,  
VIDEO2, or VIDEO3.  
3. Do not connect power cords from components which power consump-  
tion is larger than what is indicated on the AC outlet at the rear of this unit.  
2 Press the INPUT MODE key.  
Analog connections  
Each press switches the setting as follows:  
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 packaged with the source unit, or are  
available at your local electronics retailer.

Auto sound:  
In the auto sound mode (AUTO SOUND indicator lights), the receiver  
selects the listening mode automatically during playback to match the  
type of input signal (Dolby Digital, PCM, DTS ) and the speaker setting.  
The initial factory setting is auto sound on.  
To keep the receiver set to the currently selected listening mode, use  
the INPUT MODE key to select “D-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.  
If the INPUT MODE key is pressed quickly, sound may not be produced.

you to enjoy an enhanced sonic ambience with a variety of  
video sources.  
In order to obtain the optimum effect from the surround  
modes, make sure to input the proper speaker settings

The Dolby Digital surround format lets you enjoy up to 5.1 channels of 29  
digital surround sound from Dolby Digital program sources (such as  
Laserdisc or DVD software marked  
). Compared with previ-

ous Dolby surround, Dolby Digital provides even better sound quality,  
greater spatial accuracy, and improved dynamic range.  
Note  
Although a full set of speakers (front left, right, and center, surround left

surround sound, this receiver lets you enjoy Dolby Digital (and Dolby  
Surround)programsources, evenifyouconnectonlythefrontspeakers.  
Surround modes  
DTS  
The DTS multi-channel audio format is available on CD, LD and DVD  
software. DTS is a strictly digital format and can not 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.

THX is a creation of Lucasfilm Ltd., which practically brings the cinema  
sensation to your home with its superb multichannel digital audio  
program.  
This system promises a reproduction of an enthralling home experience,  
which is able to encompass smaller space with fantastic audio output.  
In order to enjoy this function, an optimum speaker placement is  
required.  
Dolby 3 Stereo is available for systems that do not have surround  
speakers. When in the Dolby 3 Stereo mode, the surround information  
is redirected to the front left and right speakers. This mode is designed  
for use with Dolby Surround program sources, but can also improve  
sound field unity for programs that are not Dolby Surround encoded.  
Dialog positioning and sound image definition, however, may not be as  
accurate when used with programs that are not Dolby Surround  
encoded.

Decorrelation, Bass Peak Level Manager and Loudspeaker Position

Center speaker  
Re-equalization (Re-EQ)  
When listening in a typical home room, there may be some variation of  
echo due to air absorption and smaller space. The sound produced by  
flat response loudspeakers normally used in the cinema can be overly  
bright in the home environment. Thus, Re-equalization (Re-EQ) will  
adjust this condition to fit the home environment for a similar cinema  
effect.

Bass Peak Level Manager  
Certain sound tracks may produced various bass peaks that could  
be unpleasant in a home cinema environment. Therefore, a user-

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.  
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.
