135.1 Channel In Button: This button selects the 5.1 channel analog input, which allows the user to enjoy high-resolution, multichannel formats such as DVD-Audio and Super Audio CD. This pure analog input completely bypasses any digital conversion or processing to maintain the highest possible audio quality; thus, delay and bass management are disabled and no surround modes may be selected when using the 5.1 channel analog input. This input is selectable from the front panel only.

14Input Selector Buttons and LED indicators: These allow easy choice of any available input. When you select a particular input, the LED in the center of that button will light and the input name will appear in the Display window to confirm your choice. Choosing an input automati- cally selects the Surround mode last used with that input. You may change the Surround mode at any time by using the Surround Mode button (#3 above).

15Master Volume Control: This rotary knob adjusts the volume for all active speakers simulta- neously. While it has the accustomed look and feel of the familiar analog volume control, it’s internal implementation is digital. The distinction will be apparent only in that the knob will NORMALLY be positioned near 12 o’clock for typical listening levels. This will be true for

all sources.

16IR (infrared) Sensor: This small window receives commands from the remote controller. Do not block this window with accessories, cables, CD jewelboxes, etc., or the remote control will not work.

17Room 2 Button: Pressing this button will activate the Room 2 output circuitry, enabling any of six analog audio and video sources; LD, VCR, video aux, CD, tape, and tuner. Pressing the Room 2 button a second time will cause the LED’s on the available source buttons to il luminate. The source that is currently selected for Room 2 will be flashing. Choose the source you want to send to Room 2 by pressing the desired source button, it will illuminate steadily and the others will go off. Pressing and holding Room 2 for several seconds will turn the Room 2 output OFF.

1.2Rear Panel Inputs & Outputs — System Connections

Like the front panel, the GTP-760’s rear panel is carefully arranged to make hookup, configuration, and use as simple as possible. However, the GTP-760’s extraordinary capabilities take some study to use most effectively. We strongly suggest that you read this section of the manual before beginning to hook up your system.
