Getting Started

About the Remote Control

• The area between the remote control and the main unit must be clear of large obstacles.

• Do not expose the remote control sensor to strong lighting, especially an inverter type fluorescent lamp as this may cause the remote control to not function properly.

Installing Batteries in the Remote Control

1. Turn the remote control over and slide the battery compartment cover off towards the direction of the arrow.

2. Insert the AA batteries, positioning them according to the polarity (+, --) markings on the inside of the battery compartment.

3. Close the battery compartment cover.

Connecting the Power Cable

Plug the supplied AC power cable into the AC inlet after all other connections are complete and then plug the AC power cable to an AC wall outlet.

CAUTION

Use the supplied AC cable. Do not use other AC power cables as doing so may result in fi re hazard or electrical shock.

Battery Replacement

If you fi nd that the distance between the remote control and the main unit must be shorter in order to use the remote control, this means that the batteries are low and must be changed. Replace both batteries with new ones.

Battery Notes:

• Use AA batteries.

• Be sure the polarities (+, --) are correct. (See the illustration inside the battery compartment).

• Remove the batteries when not using the remote control for an extended period of time.

• If batteries leak, dispose of them immediately. Avoid skin, clothing and any other contact with the leaked material.

Clean the battery compartment thoroughly before installing new batteries.

• Do not mix old and new batteries.

• Do not mix alkaline, standard (carbon-zinc) with rechargeable (nickel-cadmium) batteries.

Digital Audio Options


The DTX-9909K allows you to utilize the premium sound experience that digital audio offers by providing fi ve digital audio inputs. A digital connection allows for an entirely digital signal to be sent to, and decoded by the DTX-9909K. This eliminates the need for an analog signal or conversion and the subsequent loss in fi delity and quality. Take advantage of the DTS or Dolby Digital capabilities of many DVDs and CDs by using either of the two types of inputs found here and give your home theater or KJ set up the digital edge.

Front panel: Press the INPUT button on the DTX-9909K front panel until the correct input channel is displayed on the screen.

Remote Control: Press the corresponding input button on the remote control to access the correct input channel. i.e. DVD/OPT1 button for the OPT1 input channel or the

DIGITAL OPTICAL

– This input, also known as TOSLINK, provides a digital connection through the use of a single-pin fi ber optic cable.

DIGITAL COAXIAL

– This input provides a digital connection through the use of an RCA-style coaxial cable.

Note that both types of inputs are nearly identical in signal quality, they are both available on the DTX-9909K to allow fl exibility with your existing equipment. DIGITAL OPTICAL may provide a stronger signal over a long distance connection, but this is usually not a concern in most home theater and

KJ set ups.

Surround Back Speakers (SBR and SBL)

The Surround Back speakers supplement the surround speakers and provide for more realistic front-to-back transitions. Place these speakers directly behind the listening position and at approximately 5.9” (1.8) above the fl oor, the same height as the surround speakers. Ideally these should be positioned with the same distance between each other as is between the front speakers or no less than 11.8” (30 cm).

Subwoofer

A subwoofer is great for not only reinforcing bass frequencies from any or all channels but also for high fi delity reproduction of the LFE (low-frequency effect) channel included in Dolby Digital and DTS software. It is best to position the subwoofer near the front speakers and turn it slightly towards the center of the room to reduce wall refl ections.

Di-Pole Speaker Layout

Either Di-pole or direct radiating speaker types can be used for THX surround sound. If you choose di-pole speakers, please place the surround and surround back speakers according to the speaker layout below.

Front Speakers (FR and FL)

The front speakers are used for the main source sound plus effect sounds. Place these speakers an equal distance from the ideal listening position. The distance of each speaker from each side of the video monitor should be the same.

Center Speaker (C)

The center speaker plays the center channel sounds

(dialogue, vocals, etc.). Align the front face of the center speaker with the front face of your video monitor. Place the speaker directly between the front speakers and as close to the TV/monitor as possible.

NOTE: If for some reason it is impractical to use a center speaker, it can be left out but for best results it is recommended that you use the full system.

Surround Speakers (SR and SL)

The surround speakers are used for effect and surround sounds. Place these speakers behind the listening position, facing slightly inwards, approximately 5.9’ (1.8 m) above the fl oor.
