1 Front Panel STANDBY/ON button

Press to switch the receiver ON or into

STANDBY mode.

STANDBY indicator

Lights when the receiver is in STANDBY mode. (Please note that this receiver consumes a small amount of power [1.0 W] in the standby mode.)

2DSP MODE button (See p.45)

Press repeatedly to select a DSP sound mode. (HALL 1, HALL 2, JAZZ, DANCE, THEATER 1, or THEATER 2, 5/7 CH STEREO). Use these modes to produce surround sound from standard (two channel) stereo sources and create different listening environments.

STEREO/DIRECT button (See p.45&53)

Switches the receiver into STEREO mode if it was in a different sound mode (like DSP mode) or toggles between DIRECT and STEREO mode. For more on STEREO mode see p.45.

DIRECT playback bypasses the tone controls, DIGITAL NR, LOUDNESS, MIDNIGHT and channel level for the most accurate reproduc- tion of a program source.

2/ DTS buttons (See p.43-47& 84-85

THX CINEMA – Cycles through the THX CINEMA, THX SURROUND EX or THX AUTO sound modes. If you have THX-certified speaker setup or want to re-create a THX-style sound environment. It is also appropriate for

 

Dolby Digital, Dolby Pro Logic, DTS sources.

 

Those with surround back speakers can use all

three THX modes, those without can only use

the THX CINEMA mode.

ADVANCED – Use to select one of the four Advanced Theater modes. Use to create certain types of sound environments when listening to Dolby Digital, Dolby Pro Logic, DTS sources.

STANDARD – Use for pure decoding of multi channel sources, especially Dolby Digital, Dolby Pro Logic, DTS sources. Each press toggles between STANDARD and STANDARD 7.1 mode (for use with SURROUND BACK speak- ers) and STANDARD auto (the receiver chooses the appropriate STANDARD mode). Those with surround back speakers can use all three STANDARD modes, those without can only use the STANDARD mode.

3MULTI CH INPUT (See p.52)

Use to hook up an external component that can decode other types of signals and input them into the VSX-39TX.

4TONE control buttons TONE button

CHANNEL SELECT button
