Operating Hints
The following hints will help you to enjoy the sonic power and operating flexibility of the Signature Series
2.0while you become accustomed to the way it works. Depending on the type of equipment in use in your system, it may, or may not be necessary to follow these hints:
•If you change the Speaker Setup, keep in mind that the changes apply to all modes. You may not change the Speaker Setup for one mode, and not another.
•When the front channel speakers are set to the LARGE mode, the subwoofer output will only be active when a Dolby* Digital source with
•If the Surround Mode indication flashes in the front panel display, that is an indication that the input source is not compatible with the desired mode. The flashing mode is not the one originally selected, rather, it is the
mode automatically selected by the 2.0 to match the input source. For example, when the Pro Logic* mode is selected, but a Dolby Digital source is playing, the
2.0 will automatically select Dolby Digital, but the mode will flash to remind you that while it is correct, it is not the mode originally selected.
•Note that when a DVD is in use, the digital audio out- put is interrupted when the player is in the pause, fast search, slow speed or reverse modes. Since the 2.0 does not receive a digital signal in these cases, it will momentarily try the Pro Logic mode as an alternate. This temporary mode change does not indicate any fault or problem with the 2.0, and the unit will return to the Dolby Digital or DTS Mode shortly after the DVD is put back into a standard play mode.
•If one input source requires a significantly higher volume level than others, or when there is a distinct increase in the noise level or distortion with one input in comparison to others, this is a sign that the input level needs to be adjusted. See pages
•When certain DVD players are used, it is normal to hear an occasional click or pop noise when the DVD player is put back into play after being paused, or when some DVD discs change chapters. This is a normal side effect of the way in which some DVD players and digital decoders work, and it does NOT indicate a problem with the 2.0 or with your DVD player.
Of course, this is only the tip of the iceberg. Although you have successfully completed a minimal installation we strongly recommend that you take time to read this manual thoroughly. It will show you how to use the many features, modes and controls that are a vital part of the Signature 2.0. Correct setup and installation is impor- tant to optimizing the sound quality of your new con- troller, and will also make it easier to operate. A few minutes spent reading the manual and making certain that your new 2.0 is set up to meet the individual characteristics of your system and listening room will enable the 2.0 to deliver all the performance it is capable of.
