Press k / n repeatedly to select the desired
input mode, then press ENTER.
Analog Selects only analog signals. If no
analog signals are input, no sound is
output.
Auto Automatically selects input signals in
the following order:
1) Digital signals*
2) Analog signals
dts Selects only digital signals encoded in
DTS. If no DTS signals are input, no
sound is output.
* If this unit detects a Dolby Digital or DTS signal, the
decoder automatically switches to the appropriate sound
field program.
■ Front panel operation
Press INPUT repeatedly until the desired input
mode is shown on the front panel display.
Analog In this mode, only analog input signals
are selected, even the unit is receiving
digital signals at the same time.
Auto In this mode, the input signal is
selected automatically as follows:
1) Digital signal
2) Analog signal
dts In this mode, only digital input signals
encoded with DTS are selected, even if
the unit is receiving another signal
simultaneously.

You can adjust the default input mode this unit selects when the
power is turned on with the SETTING parameter in Input Mode
(see page 44).
• When the SETTING parameter in Input Mode is set to Fixed,
you cannot switch the input mode by pressing INPUT (see
page 44).
• When Auto is selected, this unit automatically determines the
type of signal. If it detects a Dolby Digital or DTS signal, the
decoder automatically switches to the appropriate setting.
• When playing a disc encoded with Dolby Digital or DTS on
some LD or DVD players, there is a delay in sound output for a
moment when playback resumes after a search, because the unit
must select the digital signal again.
• When playing an LD source that has not been digitally
recorded, the unit may not output any sound for some LD
players. In this case, set the input mode to Analog.
■ Notes on digital signals
The digital input jacks of this unit can handle 96 kHz
sampling digital signals. Note the following when a digital
signal with a sampling frequency greater than 48 kHz is
input to this unit:
• You cannot use any DSP programs.
• The unit will output sound as 2-channel stereo from the
front left and right speakers only. Therefore, you
cannot adjust the level of the surround speakers while
listening to such a source.
■ Notes on playing DTS-CD/LDs
• If the digital output data of the player has been
processed in any way, the unit may not be able to
perform DTS decoding even if there is a digital
connection between this unit and the player.
• If you play a source encoded with a DTS signal and set
the input mode to Analog, the unit may reproduce the
noise of an unprocessed DTS signal. In this case,
connect the source to a digital input jack on this unit
and set the input mode to Auto or dts.
• If you switch the input mode to Analog while playing a
source encoded with a DTS signal, the unit does not
output any sound.
• If you play a source encoded with a DTS signal with
the input mode set to Auto:
– The unit automatically switches to the DTS
decoding mode (The “t” indicator lights up)
after detecting the DTS signal. When playback of
the DTS source is completed, the “t” indicator
may flash. While this indicator is flashing, the unit
can only reproduce DTS source. If you want to play
a normal PCM source immediately, change the
input mode back to Auto.
– When the input mode is set to Auto and a search or
skip operation is performed during playback of a
DTS source, the “t” indicator may flash. If this
state continues for longer than 30 seconds, the unit
will automatically switch from “DTS-decoding”
mode to PCM digital signal input mode. The
“t” indicator will turn off.
