Press the HT-EQbutton on the front panel to turn on the HT-EQ mode.

The tonal balance of a film soundtrack will be excessively bright and harsh when played back over audio equipment in the home. This is because film soundtracks were designed to be played back in large movie theater environments.

Activating the HT-EQ feature when watching a film made for movie theaters corrects this and restores the correct tonal balance.

The HT-EQ feature can be activated only while in Dolby Pro Logic Mode, or while decoding Dolby Digital or DTS encoded material.

6.1 CH INPUT.

The SR4400 is equipped for future expansion through the use of Multi channel SACD multi channel player or DVD-Audio player.

This is selected, the input signals connected to the Front left, Front right, Center, Surround left, Ssurround right and Surround back channels of the 6.1 CH. In jacks are output directly to the front (left and right), center, surround (left and right) and surround back speaker systems as well as the pre- out jacks without passing through the surround circuitry.

In addition, the signal input to the SW (subwoofer) jack is output to the PRE OUT SW (subwoofer) jack.

When 6.1 CH. INPUT is selected, the last video input used remains routed to the Monitor Outputs. This permits simultaneous viewing with video sources.
