THE BASICS The following is intended to familiarize users with common terms and applications of Home Theater equipment. Sources - your receiver can directly provide audio from its built-in AM/FM tuner. It can also provide limited video from its on-screen menu system. Typically you will want to connect a number of additional sources (VCR, DVD player, etc.) to your receiver. Your receiver is designed to accommodate a wide range of audio and video signals. The following table lists the

Stereo - Stereo contains two discrete, front left and right 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 from the seven speaker channels, but your receiver can produce stereo in one (mono) to seven channels (see “Audio Modes under Operation”). Dolby Pro Logic - Dolby Pro Logic is a refinement of Dolby Surround which was the earliest form of true surround

Home THX Cinema Processing - THX is an exclusive set of standards and technologies established by the world-renowned film production company, Lucasfilm Ltd. THX grew from George Lucas’ personal desire to make your experience of the film soundtrack, in both movie and in your home theater, as faithful as possible to whatever the director intended. Currently, the AVR202 Plus does not support Home THX Cinema Processing. 13259 0303 7

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. Us

5. Status indicators - Displays current status of the receivers audio processor. Indicators have been supplied to show when the DSP is decoding Dolby Digital ‘2 Digital’, Dolby Pro Logic ‘2 Pro Logic’, or DTS audio. There is an indicator to show the input to the S/PDIF digital receiver is 96kHz 24 bit data ‘96/24’ or an analog input that is being sampled using 96kHz/24bits. Finally, there is an indicator to show processed audio is sourced from the selected analog input ‘Analog’. See MODE OPE

MAKING THE CONNECTION It’s tempting to just plug in your new A/V 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: What source components do I want to connect to my receiver? (CD, VCR, etc.) 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

AUDIO / VIDEO CONNECTIONS Connecting your analog sources to your processor Audio / Video source - connecting a DVD/VLD player to the receiver’s analog inputs. Use the same instructions for connecting to other audio / video sources such as a television, satellite receiver, cable box, etc. See Connecting Video for use with other than composite and S-video (Omit the video connections for an audio-only component such as a CD player) DVD Attach one end of the audio interconnect cable

DVD Audio using the Coax digital inputs (optional) – your receiver allows for an option to connect a 5.1 DVD Audio or other 5.1 surround format device, to the receiver’s DVD Audio input when NO coax digital inputs are to be used. This option calls for the setting of a push button switch internal to the unit. Please contact B&K customer service for further details if this option is desired. Attach one end of an audio interconnect cable to the center output on the DVD Audio source device,

DIGITAL CONNECTIONS Connect digital inputs (DVD, VLD, etc.) to the receiver. You will need either coaxial or optical digital inputs to play Dolby Digital (AC-3) or DTS surround sound processing. Digital connections are also recommended for PCM sources. If your source has both optical and coaxial COAX DIGITAL INPUTS outputs connect only one.
