your center channel speaker, but your receiver can produce mono in two or four channels (see “Surround Mode”). Since all modern sources are stereo, the mono information is usually replicated on both the left and right channels. Stereo - Stereo contains two discrete, full range audio channels. This is the most common format for music and is also used on many movies. You may get stereo from any source - digital or analog. Sound will normally come only from your front left and right speakers, but y

Bass Management - Dolby Digital and DTS formats contain up to 5 full range channels plus LFE. Only a system with five full-range (large) speakers plus a subwoofer can directly reproduce these formats. However, almost all commercially available center channel speakers are small and incapable of reproducing the lowest bass frequencies without distortion or even damage to the speaker. Many people also use small speakers in the rear of their system, while others use small speakers all around. Use of

MAKING THE CONNECTION It’s tempting to just plug in your new receiver and have great sound pour out. Before you do that, take a few minutes to plan out how you want the receiver to fit into your audio/video system. Ask yourself the following questions: y What source components do I want to connect to my receiver? (CD, VCR, etc.) y What equipment will be receiving the audio and video? (TV monitor, Speakers, etc.) The answers to your questions determine how many cables you need to connect to the b

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS My collection of equipment differs from the labels on the back of my receiver, how can I hook them up? Your receiver provides 5 identical sets of inputs - V1, V2, DVD, CD, and SAT. Each of these has analog audio, composite video, S-video, coaxial digital audio, and optical digital audio. It is convenient to connect components as labeled on the back of your receiver, but since all the inputs are identical, you can connect any compatible source to any set of inputs. For

My laserdisc player (or other digital source) has only optical output, but my CD recorder (or other digital recorder) has only coaxial input. Do I need some sort of converter to make direct digital recordings? No, your receiver will convert optical to coaxial and coaxial to optical. The currently selected digital input (optical or coaxial) will appear at both of the receiver’s digital outputs (optical and coaxial). Do I need to connect both analog and digital audio from my receiver to my CD, DAT
