The purpose of this circuit is to protect the speakers under circumstances such as when the output of the power amplifier is inadvertently short-circuited and a large current flows, when the temperature surrounding the unit becomes unusually high, or when the unit is used at high output over a long period which results in an extreme temperature rise. When the protection circuit is activated, the speaker output is cut off and the power supply indicator LED flashes. Should this occur, please follow these steps: be sure to switch off the power of this unit, check whether there are any faults with the wiring of the speaker cables or input cables, and wait for the unit to cool down if it is very hot. Improve the ventilation condition around the unit and switch the power back

If the protection circuit is activated again even though there are no problems with the wiring or the ventilation around the unit, switch off the power and contact a DENON service center. Note on speaker impedance The protector circuit may be activated if the set is played for long periods of time at high volumes when speakers with an impedance lower than the specified impedance (for example speakers with an impedance of lower than 4 Q/ohms] are connected. If the protector circuit is activated, the speaker output is cut off. Turn off the set's power, wait for the set to cool down, improve the ventilation around the set, then turn the power back on Cautions on connecting With this units speaker outputs, signals with the reverse phase of the "+" side output terminal signals are also output from the "-" side output terminal. Do not connect to a device for switching between multiple speakers (a speaker selector or audio channel selector) or connect in ways other than described in this manual.

• "Dolby" is a trademark of the Dolby Laboratories Licensing Corporation. # "dts” is a trademark of Digital Theater Systems About the AV amplifier's crossover frequency selection The crossover frequency of the satellite speaker/center speaker and the active subwoofer (the boundary between the frequency range produced by the active subwoofer and the other speakers) is set on the connected AV amplifier, and is usually fixed at between 80 and 120 kHz. With some amplifiers, however, including the Denon ADV- M51, this frequency can be selected. When using this type of amplifier, the crossover frequency can be selected to suit your tastes When using the DSW-3L active subwoofer with this type of amplifier, a richer sound can be achieved by setting the crossover frequency to around 150 Hz. Adjust the crossover frequency to suit your tastes. For instructions on switching, refer to your amplifier's operating instructions. When connecting to a Dolby Digital- or dts-compatible AV amplifier, whether one on which the crossover frequency is fixed or one on which it can be adjusted, we recommend setting the LF DIRECT switch of the active subwoofer (DSW- 3L) to the “ON” position.

DTS Digital Theater Surround (also called simply DTS) is à multi-channel digital signal format developed by Digital Theater Systems DTS offers the same “5.1” playback channels as Dolby Digital (front left, front right and center, surround left and surround right} as well as the stereo 2-channel mode. The signals for the different channels are fully independent, eliminating the risk of deterioration of sound quality due to interference between signals, crosstalk, etc. DTS features a relatively higher bit rate as compared to Dolby Digital (1234 kbps for CDs and LDs, 1536 kbps for DVDs) so it operates with à relatively low compression rate. Because of this the amount of data is great, and when DTS playback is used in movie theaters, a separate CD- ROM synchronized with the film is played With LDs and DVDs, there is of course no need for an extra disc: the pictures and sound can be recorded simultaneously on the same disc, so the discs can be handled in the same way as discs with other formats. Other media include CDs recorded in DTS. These are the same discs as conventional CDs {recorded in 2 channels} but include 5.1 channel surround signals. They do not include images, but they do permit surround playback on the ADV-M51 and on CD players.DTS surround track playback offers the same intricate, grand sound as in a movie theater, right in our own listening room al Surround M DTS compatible media and playback methods Marks indicating DTS compatibility: ELA and ELA The following are general examples.

Because of this, the un-decoded DTS signals are output as random "hissy” noise from the CD or LD player's analog outputs. If this noise is played with the amplifier set at a very high volume, it may possibly cause damage to the speakers. To avoid this, be sure to switch the input mode to "AUTO" or "DTS" before playing CDs or LDs recorded in DTS. Also, never switch the input mode to "ANALOG" or "PCM" during playback. The same is true when playing CDs and LDs recorded in DTS on the ADV-M51 or on LD/DVD compatible players. With DVDs, the DTS signals are recorded with à special recording method so there is no problem. For DVDs, the DTS signals are recorded in a special way so this problem does not occur. % 2 The signals provided at the digital outputs of a CD or LD player may undergo some sort of internal signal processing (output level adjustment, sampling frequency conversion, etc.).

The signals are output with the same sampling frequency as that of the music source In general, the higher an MP3 file's bit rate, the better the sound quality. On the ADV-M51, we recommend using MP3 files recorded with bit rates of 128 kbps or greater. MP3 files may not be played in the expected order, since the writing software may change the position of the folders and the order of the files when writing them on the CD-R/RW. Manual search and programmed playback are not possible with MP3 discs When writing MP3 files on CD-R/RW discs, select ISO9660 level 1” as the writing software format. This may not be possible with some types of writing software. For details, refer to the writing software's usage instructions. With the ADV-M51 it is possible to display folder names and file names on the screen like titles. The ADV-M51 can display up to 11 characters, consisting of numbers, capital letters, and the "_" (underscore) mark. If recorded in a format other than "ISO9660 level 1”, normal display and playback may not be possible. In addition, folder and file names including other symbols will not be displayed properly. Be sure to add the extension ".MP3" to MP3 files. Files cannot be played if they have any extension other than ”.MP3" or if they have no extension. (with Macintosh computers, MP3 files can be played by adding the extension ".MP3" after the file name consisting of up to 8 capital or numbers and recording the files on the CD-R/RW.) Do not apply stickers, tape, etc., to either the label side or the signal side of CD-R/RW discs.
