6-Channel External Input, for Multi-Channel Sound

The AVR-1600 provides an external terminal for a 6-chan- nel to support 5.1-channel playback of dts, DVD-Audio, and other multi-channel sources. 5.1-channel audio sources recorded in the dts format can be enjoyed when a dts decoder is connected to the AVR-1600. You might just want to enjoy Dolby Digital programs at first, but the AVR-1600 offers you the ability to easily upgrade your system so that you can dive into the excitement of fully discrete 5.1-channel dts digital sources as well if you wish.
