Press SIGNAL SEL (SIGNAL SELECT) to select the input signal corresponding to the source component.

Each press switches between AUTO, DVD 5.1 ch/DVD 7.1ch, ANALOG and DIGITAL. The default is AUTO.

When set to DIGITAL, 2DIGITAL lights when a Dolby Digital signal is input, and DTS lights when a DTS signal is input.

This receiver can only play back Dolby Digital, PCM (32kHz, 44kHz, 48kHz, and 96 kHz) and DTS digital signal formats. With other digital signal formats, set to

ANALOG.

You may get digital noise when a LD or CD player compatible with DTS is playing an analog signal. To prevent noise, make the proper digital connections (page 14) and set the signal input to DIGITAL.

Some DVD players don’t output DTS signals. For more details, refer to the instruction manual supplied with your DVD player.
