Advanced Sound Control
Stereo
The Stereo mode uses the two main channel outputs
from the front speakers. Use this mode if you have
connected the front speakers only.
DSP (Digital Sound Processor)
These digital sound effects resemble sounds in a real
environment such as Stadium, Concert, Theater,
Arena, Church, Club. DSP automatically converts ana-
log audio signals to digital ones which enables you to
adjust the sound without degrading the sound quali-
ty. Different modes will give you different feel of size
and type of listening environment. (Not available in
Dolby Digital (DVD))
Night Mode
By using Dynamic Range Compression technology,
you can enjoy enhanced sound quality by Dolby
Digital at night without interrupting your roommates
or neighbors. While enjoying a Dolby Digital enabled
component (DVD, SAT), you can activate Night Mode
by pressing NIGHT button at the front of the receiver,
and this mode will compress the difference in volume
between normal voices and sounds like explosions.
There are two modes (SOFT, SOFTER) for you to
choose the extents of compression.
Fine Setting of the Components
The receiver has pre-selected the best surround mode
for you once you turn on the unit by pressing the
Source Buttons (like DVD, SAT, CD) directly. The
default surround modes for different components are
as table below.
If you decide to change the surround mode, you can
press the SURR MODE repeatedly to toggle among
the different surround mode choices and select the
one you want.
Dolby Digital/Pro Logic 3 Stereo Stereo
The receiver will keep the last selection in memory.
Input Signal Setting
The receiver defaults to the most convenient settings
for your easiest use (see table).
If your connection is different from the default set-
ting,
1. Select the source
2. Press FUNCTION
3. Rotate MULTI JOG to toggle among optical/ coaxi-
al/ analog to match your connection. Your selection
will be stored automatically.
Every time you press the source button, the input set-
ting (e.g. DVD/ OPTI) will be shown on display for a
few seconds.

CD, LD player, SAT or TV.

sette deck, VCR or turntable.
