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 most popula

seven speaker channels, but your receiver can produce mono in one to seven channels (see “Audio Modes under Operation”). Since all modern sources are stereo, the mono information is usually replicated from both the left and right channels. 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 sp

you can create your own DTS DATs or CDs but not mini disc or digital compact cassette. As with Dolby Digital, sound will normally come from all seven speakers in your system, but your receiver can produce sound in one (mono) to seven channels (see “Audio Modes under Operation”). DVD Audio (also referred to as MLP) - Meridian Lossless Packing (MLP) is a lossless coding system for high-quality linear PCM audio. For DVD-Audio MLP performs lossless compression of up to 6 channels of up to 24-bit mat

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

5. Status indicators - Displays current status of the receivers audio processor. Indicators have been supplied to show when the DSP is decoding Dolby Digital ‘ Digital’, Dolby Pro Logic ‘ 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 OPERA

REAR PANEL The receiver’s back panel is organized into groups of inputs and outputs for audio and video as shown below. See back of this manual for an enlarged view. 1. AC fuse holder - Holds the AC Line fuse. Replace only with same type and value. 2. AC input receptacle - For attaching the supplied AC power cord to the receiver. 3. IEEE 1394 input (optional) - For future interface applications. 4. Control outs - Outputs that allow you to remotely control external devices. (See “Making The Con

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: 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 t

AUDIO / VIDEO CONNECTIONS Connecting your analog sources to your receiver 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 S-Video input Attach one end of the audio interconnect cable to

Component Video - in addition to S-video and composite video switching, your receiver provides two sets of component video inputs for DVD and TV/DBS type inputs, and one set of component video outputs. Your receivers component video connection are passive to minimize the possibility of video format compatibility issues. Use the same instructions to connect a second (TV/DBS) component video 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 COAX DIGITAL processing. Digital connections are also ZA OUT TV V2 V1 recommended for PCM sources. If your source has both optical and coaxial outputs connect only one.
