These settings can be set differently for each input source.

Audio Setup

Digital Input (D. INPUT): This setting tells the TX-DS595 which input source button on the front panel is connected with which digital input jack on the rear panel.

If you have connected your components in accordance with the default settings (given in the table below), then there is no need to change this setting.

Multichannel (MULTICH): This setting will not appear if AM or FM is selected at the front panel for the input source. The initial settings are “Yes” for the DVD input source and “No” for all other input sources. This setting is normally set to “NO,” and only needs to be changed to “YES” if a DVD player, MPEG decoder, or other component that has a multi channel port is connected to the MULTI CHANNEL INPUT port for 5.1-channel audio.

2-channel analog sources and PCM source (default: STEREO.)

Note:

For PCM sources recorded at a sampling rate of 96 kHz or greater, only the Stereo or Direct listening modes can be selected. However, the set listening mode is stored in memory.

Digital format Source: Set a listening mode for the input signal

from digital sources (default: SURROUND).
