Only the center speaker produces sound

If you use the Dolby Pro Logic IIx Movie, Dolby Pro — Logic IIx Music, or Dolby Pro Logic IIx Game lis- tening mode with a mono source, such as an AM radio station or mono TV program, the sound is con- centrated in the center speaker.

In the Mono listening mode, only the front speakers

output sound if the “Output Speaker” setting is set

 

to “Center”.

 

Make sure the speakers are configured correctly.

47

When the T-D (Theater-Dimensional), Stereo or

Mono listening mode is selected, the surround

 

speakers produce no sound.

 

 

 

Depending on the source and current listening mode,

speakers. Try selecting another listening mode.

 

Make sure the speakers are configured correctly.

47

There’s no sound with a certain signal format

Check the digital audio output setting on the con-

nected device. On some game consoles, such as

 

those that support DVD, the default setting is off.

 

 

 

With some DVD-Video discs, you need to select an

audio output format from a menu.

 

Depending on the input signal, some listening modes

3741

cannot be selected.

 

Can’t select the Pure Audio listening mode

The Pure Audio listening mode cannot be selected — while Zone 2/3 is on.

Can’t get 6.1/7.1 playback

If no surround back speakers, front wide and front

high speakers are connected, or the Zone 2/3 speak-

 

ers are being used, 6.1/7.1 playback is not possible.

 

 

 

You can not always select all of the listening modes,

3741

depending on the number of the speakers connected.

 

 

 

The speaker volume cannot be set as required (The volume cannot be set to Max(100.0))

Check to see if a maximum volume has been set.

57

If the volume level of each individual speaker has

29, 48

been adjusted to high positive values, then the maxi- mum master volume possible may be reduced. Note that the individual speaker volume levels are set automatically after Audyssey MultEQ® Room Cor- rection and Speaker Setup function has been com- pleted.

Noise can be heard

Using cable ties to bundle audio cables with power — cords, speaker cables, and so on may degrade the audio performance, so don’t do it.

An audio cable may be picking up interference. Try — repositioning your cables.

The Late Night function doesn’t work

Make sure the source material is Dolby Digital,

61

Dolby Digital Plus, and Dolby TrueHD.

 

About DTS signals

When DTS program material ends and the DTS bit- — stream stops, the AV receiver remains in DTS listen- ing mode and the DTS indicator remains on. This is

to prevent noise when you use the pause, fast for- ward, or fast reverse function on your player. If you switch your player from DTS to PCM, because the AV receiver does not switch formats immediately, you may not hear any sound, in which case you should stop your player for about three seconds, and then resume playback.

With some CD and LD players, you won’t be able to — playback DTS material properly even though your player is connected to a digital input on the AV receiver. This is usually because the DTS bitstream has been processed (e.g., output level, sampling rate,

or frequency response changed) and the AV receiver doesn’t recognize it as a genuine DTS signal. In such cases, you may hear noise.

When playing DTS program material, using the

pause, fast forward, or fast reverse function on your

 

player may produce a short audible noise. This is not

 

amalfunction.

The beginning of audio received by an HDMI IN can’t be heard

Since it takes longer to identify the format of an

HDMI signal than it does for other digital audio sig-

 

nals, audio output may not start immediately.
