THE BASICS The following is intended to familiarize users with common terms and applications of Home Theater equipment. Sources - your receiver can provide audio from its built-in AM/FM tuner. It can also provide limited video from its on-screen menu system. 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 popular home 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 surroun

DTS NEO:6 – DTS Neo:6 is an advances matrix decoder. It will take any two-channel source and expand it into five or six channels, depending on the user’s speaker layout. Two-channel sources include VHS tapes, broadcast television, stereo CDs and DVDs. DTS Neo:6 provides separate, optimized modes for stereo music materials and matrix surround motion picture soundtracks. DTS Neo:6 also decodes a center-surround channel from Extended Surround matrix soundtracks. DTS-ES (Extended Surround) -

THX Surround EX ™ - Dolby Digital Surround EX is a joint development of Dolby Laboratories and the THX division of Lucasfilm Ltd. In a movie theater, film soundtracks that have been encoded with Dolby Digital Surround EX technology are able to reproduce an extra channel, which has been added during the mixing of the program. This channel, called Surround Back, places sounds behind the listener in addition to the currently available front left, front center, front right, surround right, su

Bass Management - Dolby Digital and DTS-ES formats may contain up to 6 full range channels plus LFE. Only a system with six 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 arou

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 co

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 receiver’s component video connections are passive to minimize the possibility of video format compatibility issues. Use the same instructions to connect a second (TV/DBS) component video device. COMPONENT VIDEO IN 1 IN 2 Component video input to Component video input to V1 DVD red output
