BASIC CONNECTIONS SPEAKER PLACEMENT The ideal surround speaker system for this unit is 7-speaker systems, using front left and right speakers, à center speaker, surround left and right speakers, a surround back left and right speakers, and a subwoofer. For best results we recommend that all front speakers be of the same type, with identical or similar driver units. This will deliver smooth pans across the front sound stage as the action moves from side to side: Your center channel speaker is very important as over 80% of the dialog from à typical motion picture emanates from the center channel. It should possess similar sonic characteristics to the main speakers. Surround channel speakers need not be identical to the front channel speakers, but they should be of high quality The surround center speaker is useful for playback of Dolby Digital Surround EX or DTS-ES One of the benefits of both Dolby Digital and DTS is that surround channels are discrete full range, while they were frequency limited in earlier "Pro Logic’ type systems. Bass effects are an important part of home theater. For optimal enjoyment a subwoofer should be used as itis optimized for low frequency reproduction. If you have full range front speakers, however, they may be used in place of à subwoofer with proper setting of the switches in the menu system SUBWOOFER We recommendusinga sub-woofer to have maximum bass effect. As the subwoofer only handies low frequencies, you can place it any where in the room Subwoofer MA Surround Rjght LA front Right urfound/Éack Right SR V2 onCenter.

SURROUND LEFT AND RIGHT SPEAKERS

Place the surround left, right and surround back speakers higher than your ears by about 70cm-1m Also place the speakers at the same height, as best as possible Align the front line of the center speaker with the front L/R speakers. Or place the center speaker à little backward from the line

SURROUND LEFT AND RIGHT SPEAKERS

When this unit is used in surround operation, the preferred location for surround speakers is on the side walls of the room, at or slightiy behind the listening position. The center of the center speaker should face the center of the room. SURROUND BACK LEFT AND RIGHT SPEAKERS n Surround back speakers are required when a full 7.1-channel system is installed! Speakers should be placed on a rear wall, behind the listening position. The center of the speaker should face into the room: CONNECTING SPEAKERS + Be sure to use speakers with the specified impedance as shown on the rear panel of this unit. + When connecting a powered subwoofer (one with a built-in amplifier}, connect it to the PRE OUT subwoofer output terminal ÿ | 77 = | El EI : E Powered Center Right Left Right Left subwoofer Surround Surround Back (Notes )) + To prevent damage to cireuitry, do not let the bare speaker wires touch each other and do not let them touch any metal part of this unit + Do not touch the speaker terminals when the power is on.

TUNER OPERATION (RDS) Now in use in many countries, RDS (Radio Data System) is a description of the station's programming hidden space in the FM signal Your new unit is equipped with RDS to assist in the selection of FM stations using station and network names, rather than broadcast frequencies. Additional RDS functions include the ability to search for programme types RADIO TEXT Some RDS stations broadcast RADIO TEXT, which is additional information on the station and programme being broadcast RADIO TEXT information appears as ‘running’ text in the display. RADIO TEXT is transmitted character by the radio station. As a result of that it may take some time until the entire text has been completely received RDS DISPLAY When a unit is tuned to an FM station that is transmitting RDS data, the Front Panel Information Display will automatically show the station name or RDS TEXT in place of the typical display of the station's broadcast frequency.

All Rights Reserved. + dts Digital Surround DTS was introduced in 1994 to provide 5.1 channels of discrete digital audio into home theater systems DTSbringsyoupremiumqualitydiscretemultichannel digital sound to both movies and music. DTS is a multichannel sound system designed to create full range digital sound reproduction. The no compromise DTS digital process sets the standard of quality for cinema sound by delivering an exact copy of the studio master recordings to neighborhood and home theaters. Now, every moviegoer can hear the sound exactly as the moviemaker intended. DTS can be enjoyed in the home for either movies or music on of DVD's, LD's, and CD's. + dts Neo:6® The advantages of discrete multichannel systems over matrix are well known. But even in homes equipped for discrete multichannel, there remains a need for high-quality matrix decoding. This is because of the large library of matrix surround motion pictures available on disc and on VHS tape: and analog television broadcasts: The typical matrix decoder of today derives a center channel and à mono surround channel from two- channel matrix stereo material. It is better than a simple matrix in that it includes steering logic to improve separation, but because of its mono, band- limited surround it can be disappointing to users accustomed to discrete multichannel Neo:6 provides up to six full-band channels of matrix decoding from stereo matrix material Users with 6.1 and 5.1 systems will derive six and five separate channels, respectively, corresponding to the standard home-theater speaker layouts Neo:6 technology allows various sound elements within à channel or channels to be steered separately, and in à way which follows naturally from the original presentation: Neo:6 offers a music mode to expand stereo nonmatrix recordings into the five- or six-channel layout, in a way which does not diminish the subtlety and integrity of the original stereo recording + dts Digital Surround ES® DTS-ES Extended Surround is a new multichannel digital signal format developed by Digital Theater Systems Inc. While offering high compatibility with the conventional DTS Digital Surround format, DTS- ES Extended Surround greatly improves the 360- degree surround impression and space expression thanks to further expanded surround signals. This format has been used professionally in movie theaters since 1999. In addition to the 5.1 surround channels (FL, FR, C, SL, SR and LFE), DTS-ES Extended Surround also offers the SB (Surround Back) channel for surround playback with a total of 6.1 channels. DTS-ES Extended Surround includes two signal formats with different surround signal recording methods, as DTS-ES Discrete 6.1 and DTS-ES Matrix 6.1

OTHERS + dts Digital Surround 96/24 The stereo CD is a 16-bit medium with sampling at

44.1 kHz. Professional audio has been 20- or 24-bit

for some time, and there is increasing interest in higher sampling rates both for recording and for delivery into the home. Greater bit depths provide extended dynamic range. Higher sampling rates allow wider frequency response and the use of anti- alias and reconstruction filters with more favorable aural characteristics DTS 96/24 allows for 5.1channel sound tracks to be encoded at a rate of 96kHz/24bits on DVD-Video titles. When DVD-video appeared, it became possible to deliver 24-bit, 96 KHz audio into the home, but only in two channels, and with serious limitations on picture. This capability has had little use DVD-audio allows 96/24 in six channels, but a new player is needed, and only analog outputs are provided, necessitating the use of the D/A converters and analog electronics provided in the player. DTS 96/24 offers the following; Sound quality transparent to the original 96/24 master. Full backward compatibility with all existing decoders. (Existing decoders will output à 48 kHz signall No new player required: DTS 96/24 can be carried on DVD-video, or in the video zone of DVD-audio, accessible to all DVD players. 96/24 5.1-channel sound with full-quality full- motion video, for music programs and motion picture soundtracks on DVD-video.

S dts-u Master Audio DTS-HD Master Audio is capable of delivering audio that is a bit-for-bit identical to the studio master. DTS-HD Master Audio delivers audio at super high variable bit rates -24.5 mega-bits per second (Mbps) on Blu-ray discs and 18.0 Mbps on HD-DVD - that are significantly higher than standard DVDs . This bit stream is so “fast” and the transfer rate is so "high" that it can deliver the Holy Grail of audio: 7.1 audio channels at 96k sampling frequency/24 bit depths that are identical to the original. With DTS-HD Master Audio, you will be able to experience movies and music, exactly as the artist intended: clear, pure, and uncompromised!
