When this mode is set, all the video-related circuits are turned

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

off so that music signals can be reproduced with high quality.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

When an analog input (phono, etc.) is selected, the digital

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

processing circuitry is also turned off to achieve analog sound

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

with even higher purity.

NOTES:

The system setup function cannot be used when the PURE DIRECT mode is set or the “VIDEO OFF” setting is selected. To use the system setup function, cancel the PURE DIRECT mode or select the “VIDEO ON” setting.

The channel level and surround parameters in the PURE DIRECT mode are the same as in the DIRECT mode.

When the PURE DIRECT button is pressed while in the PURE DIRECT mode, the PURE DIRECT mode is canceled and the DIRECT mode is set.

The crossover frequency setting must be set to “FIXED-THX-” in the system setup in order to turn off the digital circuit when in the analog input mode in the PURE DIRECT mode. (See page 20.)
