Features	Precautions
Dolby Digital EX*	Power sources

Dolby Digital EX is newly introduced surround encoding format as an extension of multi-channel Dolby Digital, designed to add an extra surround channel to Dolby Digital 5.1-channel. By using a matrix encoding/decoding method, additional “surround back” channel signal is encoded (and decoded) in both the left and right surround channel signals.

DTS-ES Extended Surround (DTS-ES)**

DTS-ES is another new format developed by Digital Theater Systems, Inc., adding a surround back channel on the basis of DTS Digital Surround.

Dolby Pro Logic II*

Dolby Pro Logic II converts all 2-channel stereo software, especially Dolby Surround encoded software, into 5-channel (plus subwoofer) signals. It reproduces realistic Surround sounds approaching to Dolby Digital 5.1-channel. Dolby Pro Logic II has two modes to reproduce—Movie mode and Music mode.

Neo:6**

Neo:6 can reproduce realistic Surround fields by converting

2-channel stereo software into 6-channel (plus subwoofer) signals. Neo:6 has two modes to reproduce—Neo:6 Cinema and Neo:6 Music.

DAP (Digital Acoustic Processor)

Sound field simulation technology allows precise ambience recreation of existing theaters and halls. Thanks to the high- performance DSP (Digital Signal Processor) and high-capacity memory, you can enjoy 5.1-channel surround by playing 2-channel or multi-channel software.

•Do not handle the AC power cord with wet hands.

•If you are not going to operate the receiver for an extended period of time, unplug the AC power cord from the wall outlet.

Ventilation

High power amplifiers built in this receiver will generate heat inside the cabinet. For safety, observe the following carefully.

•Make sure there is good ventilation around the receiver. Poor ventilation could overheat and damage the receiver.

•Do not block the ventilation openings or holes. (If the ventilation openings or holes are blocked by a newspaper or cloth, etc., the heat may not be able to get out.)
