Expanded

This mode is especially designed to give sound depth to stereo sources. The overall effect builds a dynamic and broad sound space, allowing two-channel (stereo) signals to imitate a five speaker sound. Use with Dolby Pro Logic for a stereo surround effect. You can also use with Dolby Digital sources for a wider stereo field than the Standard modes.

5-Channel Stereo

This can be selected to give multi-channel sound to a stereo source, using all the speakers in your setup.

Choosing the input signal

You need to hook up a component to both analog and digital inputs on the back of the receiver to select between input signals.

MULTI JOG

 

Press SIGNAL SELECT (front panel) to select the input signal corresponding to the source component.

Each press switches between AUTO, DVD 5.1 ch, ANALOG and DIGITAL. The default is AUTO.

When set to DIGITAL, 2DIGITAL lights when a Dolby Digital signal is input, and DTS lights when a DTS signal is input.

DVD 5.1 ch is only available when DVD/LD is selected as the source.

This receiver can only play back Dolby Digital, PCM (32kHz, 44kHz, 48kHz, and 96 kHz) and DTS digital signal formats. With other digital signal formats, set to

ANALOG.

You may get digital noise when a LD or CD player compatible with DTS is playing an analog signal. To prevent noise, make the proper digital connections (page 12) and set the signal input to DIGITAL.

Some DVD players don’t output DTS signals. For more details, refer to the instruction manual supplied with your DVD player.

You can only select DIGITAL if the source you selected is assigned to a digital input. See page 32 for more on the digital input settings.

Using Stereo/Direct

When you select STEREO or DIRECT, you will hear the source through just the front left and right speakers (and possibly your subwoofer depending on your speaker settings). Dolby Digital and DTS multichannel sources are downmixed to stereo. See the previous page for more on these modes.

Press STEREO (STEREO/DIRECT on the front panel) repeatedly to switch between the two options.

If you switch on Midnight listening, Loud- ness, or the Tone controls when DIRECT is selected, the receiver automatically switches to STEREO.
