Switching ANALOG/DIGITAL Signal Input

This switch moves the input fed to the receiver between analog, digital sources. You need to take special care to switch to the appropriate input, when necessary. For example, the switch would have to be on digital to use DOLBY DIGITAL or DTS surround sound but it would have to be on analog to record from the analog out jacks on the receiver. On the VSX-D908S the default setting is ANALOG.

								• When an LD or CD with DTS is played back with the SIGNAL
								SELECT set in “ANALOG,” digital noise caused by playing
								back the DTS directly (with no decoding) is output. To prevent
								noise, you need to make digital connections (See p. 10-11)
								and set SIGNAL SELECT to “DIGITAL”.

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