If you want to play the excellent bass sound, DTS digital surround or Dolby Digital surround, you should connect a subwoofer. • Front speakers According to your listening position set up the speakers for equal distance. And by hearing position set up the interval between speakers to 45 degree. • Centre speaker The centre speakers and front speakers are ideally the same height. But normally place it above or below the television. • Rear speakers Place left and right behind the listening area. These speakers recreate sound motion and atmosphere required for surround sound playback. For best results, do not install the rear speakers too far behind the listening position and install them at or above the level of the listener’s ears. It is also effective to direct the rear speakers towards a wall or ceiling to further disperse the sound. In the case of a smaller room size, if the audience is near to the rear wall set the rear speakers opposite each other, and set the rear speakers above 60 - 90 cm than the listener’s ears. • Subwoofer This can be placed in any front position.

DTS Digital Surround delivers up to 6 channels of transparent audio(which means identical to the original masters) and results in exceptional clarity throughout a true 360 degree sound field. The term DTS is a trademark of DTS Technology, LLC. Manufactured under license from DTS Technology, LLC. The Dolby Digital surround format lets you enjoy up to 5.1 channels of digital surround sound from a Dolby Digital program source. If you play DVDs with “ ” mark, you can enjoy even better sound quality, greater spatial accuracy, and improved dynamic range. Use this mode when playing movie or Dolby Digital 2 channel which carries the “ ” mark. This mode provides the effect of being in a movie theatre or live concert house-an effect with an intensity which can only be obtained through DOLBY PRO LOGIC SURROUND. The effect of the front/back/left/right movement of the sound image, as well as the sense of fixed position in the sound image, is much clearer and more dynamic than before. (II) Dolby Pro Logic II creates five full-bandwidth output channels from two-channel sources. This is done using an advanced, high-purity matrix surround decoder that extracts the spatial properties of the original recording without adding any new sounds or tonal colorations. MOVIE mode: The Movie mode is for use with stereo television shows and all programs encoded in Dolby Surround. The result is enhanced soundfield directionality that approaches the quality of discrete 5.1-channel sound. MUSIC mode: The Music mode is for use with any stereo music recordings, and provides a wide and deep sound space. The Music mode includes controls that allow the sound to be tailored to individual listening tastes. MATRIX mode: The Matrix mode is the same as the Music mode except that the directional enhancement logic is turned off. It may be used to enhance mono signals by making them seem “larger.” The Matrix mode may also find use in auto systems, where the fluctuations from poor FM stereo reception can otherwise cause disturbing surround signals from a logic decoder. The ultimate “cure” for poor FM stereo reception may be simply to force the audio to mono. 3D SURROUND This unit can produce a 3D Surround effect, using 3D Surround Sound technology, which simulates multi-channel audio playback from two conventional stereo speakers instead of the five or more speakers normally required to listen to multi-channel audio from a home theatre. This feature works with DVD discs encoded with Dolby Pro Logic and Dolby Digital audio tracks. 14 BYPASS Software with multichannel surround audio signals is played according to the way it was recorded. Sound Mode You can enjoy surround sound simply by selecting one of the pre-programmed sound fields according to the program you want to listen to. Press SOUND MODE repeatedly until the sound mode you want appears in the display window as below. Each time you press SOUND MODE button, the sound mode is changed in the following order; PRO LOGIC → PL2 MOVIE → PL2 MUSIC → PL2 MATRIX → 3D SURROUND → BYPASS When DVD is inserted. You can change the stream of DVD (Dolby Digital, DTS, PCM, etc) by pressing the AUDIO button on the remote during playback. Although the DVD contents differ from disc to disc, the following explains the basic operation when this feature is used. Each time you press AUDIO button, the sound mode of DVD is changed as the following order; → → → For your reference • The DVD/CD/VCR Receiver memorizes the last mode settings for each source individually. • You can identify the encoding format of program software by looking at its packaging. - Dolby Digital discs are labeled with the logo. - Dolby Surround encoded programs are labeled with the logo. - DTS Digital Surround discs are marked with DTS. ote When you play sound tracks with 96kHz sampling frequency, the output signals will be converted to 48kHz (sampling frequency). Video channel Set Using your Receiver for the very first time Video channel (RF output channel) is the channel on which your TV receives picture and sound signals from the DVD/CD/VCR receiver through the RF cable. For the following steps we assume that you have just connected your Receiver for the very first time. To make tuning TV stations an easy task your Receiver incorporates the Automatic Channel Memory System (ACMS). This system will automatically tune and store TV channels in your Receiver. If you have used a SCART lead you will not have to tune your TV, simply select the AV channel. The AV channel is already pre-tuned for optimum video playback on your TV. Perform the following steps only if interference appears in the TV picture after you have moved to a different area or a new station has started broadcasting in your area, or if you change the connection from RF connection to AV connection, or vise versa. 1 Turn on DVD/CD/VCR receiver and TV. 2 Set the vacant position 36 on your TV.
