Note

When using the connections described below, adjust the level ofyour surround speakers and sub woofer from the DVD player ormultichannel decoder.

Although this receiver incorporates a multi channel

decoder, it is also equipped with 5.1CH INPUT jacks.

These connections allow you to enjoy multichannel

software encoded in formats other than Dolby Digital

(AC-3) and DTS. If your DVD player is equipped with

5.1CH OUTPUT jacks, you can connect them directly to

the receiver to enjoy the sound of the DVD player’s multi

channel decoder. Alternatively, the 5.1CH INPUT jacks

can be used to connect an external multi channel decoder.

To fully enjoy multi channel surround sound, you will

need five speakers (two front speakers, two rear speakers,

and a center speaker) and a sub woofer. Refer to the

instruction manual supplied with your DVD player, multi

channel decoder, etc., for details on the 5.1 channel input

hookups.
