Make connections as shown in the following pages.

When connecting the related system components, be sure

to refer to the instruction manuals supplied with the

components you are connecting.

Do not connect the power cord to a wall outlet until all

connections are completed.

Note
Be sure to insert all connection cords securely. If their connections
are imperfect, sound may not be produced or there will be noise infer-
ence.

Analog connections

Audio connections are made using RCA pin cords. These cables transfer
stereo audio signal in an “analog” form. This means the audio signal
corresponds to the actual audio of two channels. These cables usually
have 2 plugs on each end, one red for the right channel and one white for
the left channel. These cables are usually packed together with the
source unit, or are available at your local electronics retailer.

Microcomputer malfunction

If operation is not possible or an erroneous display appears, even
though all connections have been made properly, reset the
microcomputer referring to “In case of difficulty”. ›

CAUTION

Be sure to adhere to the following, or proper ventilation will be
blocked causing damage or fire hazard.
•Do not place any objects impairing heat radiation onto the top of the
unit.
•Leave some space around the unit (from the largest outside dimen-
sion including projection) equal to or greater than, shown below.

DVD/CD, VIDEO 2 and FRONT AUX inputs each include jacks for
digital audio input and analog audio input.
The initial factory settings for audio signal playback for DVD/CD,
VIDEO 2 and FRONT AUX.
After completing connections and turning on the amplifier, follow the
steps below.
1Use the Input Selector keys to select DVD/CD, VIDEO 2 or
FRONT AUX.
2Press the INPUT MODE key.
Each press switches the setting as follows:
In DVD/CD, VIDEO 2 or FRONT AUX play mode
1FULL AUTO (digital input, analog input)
2D.MANUAL (digital input)
3ANALOG (analog input)
In DTS play mode
1FULL AUTO (digital input, analog input)
2D.MANUAL (digital input)
Digital input:
Select this setting to play digital signals from a DVD, CD, or LD
player.
Analog input:
Select this setting to play analog signals from a cassette deck, VCR,
or record player.
Auto detect:
In “FULL AUTO” mode (FULL AUTO displayed), the amplifier
detects the digital or analog input signals automatically. Priority is
given to digital signal during input mode selection. The receiver will
select the input mode and listening mode automatically during
playback to match the type of input signal (Dolby Digital, PCM, DTS)
and the speaker setting. The DIGITAL indicator on the display will
light up when digital signal is detected during FULL AUTO mode or
during D.MANUAL mode. If the input signal is analog, the DIGITAL
indicator will go off.
To keep the amplifier set to the currently selected listening mode,
use the INPUT MODE key to select “D.MANUAL” (manual sound).
However, even when this setting is selected, there may be cases in
which the listening mode is selected automatically to match a Dolby
Digital source signal depending on the combination of listening
mode and source signal.
At D.MANUAL, if the audio reproduction stops in the middle due
to change in the input signals, etc. press the LISTEN MODE knob.
If the INPUT MODE key is pressed quickly, sound may not be
produced. Press the INPUT MODE key again.
