Selecting the multichannel analog inputs

If you have connected a decoder or a DVD player with multichannel analog outputs to this receiver (page 17), you can select them for

surround sound playback.2

•Make sure you have set the playback source to the proper output setting.

For example, you might need to set your DVD player to output multichannel analog audio.

Note

1If your source is the TV’s built-in tuner, switch to the channel you want to watch, otherwise make sure that the TV’s video input is set to this receiver (For example, if you connected this receiver to the VIDEO 1 jacks on your TV, make sure that the VIDEO 1 input is selected). Turn down the volume of your TV so that all the sound is coming from the speakers connected to this receiver.

2• When playback from the multichannel inputs is selected, you can’t use ACOUSTIC CAL EQ, DIALOG E, INPUT ATT, TONE, VSB and MIDNIGHT/LOUDNESS, as well as any of the listening modes (including STEREO/DIRECT and the Extended mode).

•When playback from the multichannel inputs is selected, only the volume and channel levels can be set.

•You can’t listen to your speaker B (Second Zone) system during playback from the multichannel inputs.
