Setting up the system CAUTION Make sure that the power cord plug is disconnected from the AC wall outlet before proceeding to connections. Also be sure to disconnect the power cord plug from the AC wall outlet before changing connections: Forthe connections of other system components, see pages 9 to 18. When connecting an associated system component, be sure to read its instruction manual. Microcomputer malfunction If operation is not possible or an erroneous display appears,even though all connections have been made properly, reset the micro computer referring to ‘In case of difficulty". [86] Notes

1. Be sure to turn off the system components before connecting them.

2. Be sure to insert every connection cable completely into the jack

Incomplete connection may result in absence of audio output or production of noise:

3. Be sure to disconnect the power cord from the AC wall outlet before

inserting or removing à connection cable.

4. Installation of outdoor antenna is a dangerous work. Please have your

dealer or a specialized technician install it

5. Select the speaker installation locations with care. lf a speaker is

installed near à source of magnetism including a magnet, the mutual interference with the speaker may produce color irregularities on the TV screen Analog audio connections Audio connections are made using RCA pin cords. These cables transfer stereo audio signal in an “analog" form. This means the audio signal corresponds to the actual audio of two channels. These cables usually have 2 plugs on each end,one red for the right channel and one white for the left channel These cables are to be prepared separately by the user. CAUTION Be sure to adhere to the following, or proper ventilation will be blocked causing damage or fire hazard. Do not place any objects impairing heat radiation onto the top of the unit. e Leave some space around the unit (from the largest outside dimension including projection) equal to or greater than, shown below.

Angle the speakers towards the listening area to enhance the stereo effect Center speaker : Place the center speaker on the center between the front left and right speakers. Tilt the speaker upward or down-ward so that it is directly facing the listening area. Surround speakers : Place the surround speakers as high as possible, either directly to the sides of the listening area or else slightly behind the listening area. Adjust the angles so that these speakers are facing directly towards the listeners. Subwoofer : Usually, place the subwoofer inthe front center position in the listening room, near one of the front speakers near the center speaker. (Since the subwoofer has less directivity than other Speakers, it can be placed almost in any position that can offer the best low frequency reproduction according to the room layout.) Surround back speakers : Place the surround back speaker behind the listining position, at the same height as the left and right surround speakers. Although the ideal surround system consists of all the speakers listed above, if you don't have a center speaker or a subwoofer, you can divide those signals between the available speakers in the speaker settings steps to obtain the best possible surround reproduction from the speakers you have available.

This is done using a matrix decoder that derives three surround channels from the two in the original recording. This is achieved by using three different surround signals, Left Surround , Right Surround, and Back Surround, each driving its own array of speakers. Think of it as adding a center channel for the rear speakers, which give more diffuse and natural surround effect, even if you wanted the ability to completely encircle the audience with sound, positioning sound effects exactly where they wolud be heard in real life. Note For best results, Dolby Digital EX should be used with movie soundtracks recorded with Dolby Digital Surround EX which contain a digital flag that will automatically activate this feature. However, for titles released prior to late 2001, this feature has to be activated manually. This model lets you enjoy Dolby Digital (and Dolby Surround) program sources, even if you connect only the Front Speakers.

Ambience effects DTS-ES The DTS-ES (Digital Theater System-Extended Surround) represents 6.1-channel Discrete Surround format, expanding upon 5.1 surround. DTS-ES format is à 6.1 channel sound system for movie theaters that includes an additional surround center channel matrixed within sur- round left and surround right. t's compatible on predecessor DTS 5.1 system. The extra channel allows more accurate placement and Steering of sound accross the rear soundstage.The DTS-ES receiver will be required, to experience a discrete 6.1-channel mix The DTS-ES decoders used in home cinema systems have decoding options for utilizing the extra channel, in addition to processing existing 5.1 channel surround sound DTS-ES Discrete 6.1 and DTS-ES Matrix 6.1 add the surround back channel audio to the DTS 5. 1-channel format to improve the acoustic positioning and makes acoustic image movement more natural with the 6.1-channel reproduction. DTS The DTS employs a larger amount of data than Dolby Digital to play surround sound with higher quality. The DTS can be used with DVD and LaserDisc software carrying the ÉEA mark. Although the number of channels is 5.1 and identical to Dolby Digital, the DTS format features lower audio compression rate in digital recording, which enables audio with more profoundness and higher S/N. The wider dynamic range and better channel separation also contribute to make the surround sound more precise and larger in scale NE0:6 NEO:6 is a new technology which decodes 2-channel signals into 6-channel signals using high-accuracy digital matrix technology. For the best results, DTS-ES should be used with movie sound tracks recorded with DTS-ES format which contain a digital flag that will automatically activate this feature. However, for some titles, this feature has to be activated manual. According to the signals to be played back, DTS NEO:6 uses either the NEO:CINEMA mode optimized for movie playback or the NEO:MUSIC mode optimized for music playback. DTS 96/24 The DTS 96/24 enables 5.1-channel playback with broad bandwidth over 40 KHz and high resolution without affecting the picture quality of DVD video. As it is compatible with the DTS surround playback, it makes it possible to play DTS 5.1-channel surround audio even when the AV amplifier incorparates only the DTS or DTS-ES decoder DSP mode The DSP mode lets you add the atmosphere of a live concert or hall to almost any type of program source. These modes are particulariy effective when used with stereo program sources, like CD, television, and FM radio. You might enjoy trying the ARENA, JAZZ CLUB, THEATER, STADIUM or DISCO mode the next time you watch a concert or sporting event! What's DSP? DSP stands for Digital Signal Processor. The way a sound is heard in an actual environment depends on a variety of different factors. One of the mostimportant is reverberation {the act of decaying elements of sound echoing in various places) The DSP modes produce the feeling of presence by using the DSP to create reverberation, without spoiling the sound quality of the original signal LFE = Low Frequency Effects. This channel delivers separate non- directional bass signals to the subwoofer for more dynamic deep bass sound effects.
