SOURCE SELECTION
SOURCE SELECT
When selecting a source by turning SOURCE SELECT, the
audio and video inputs with the corresponding name are
activated. The incoming signal is reproduced by all audio and
- if the source includes a video signal - video outputs of the
receiver. It is possible to reassign a source selection to other
than these standard inputs.

Reassigning a source selection
If a source is selected with SOURCE SELECT, the standard

to the digital COAX 2 IN audio input.

This can be useful when products are connected one after the
other in a chain.
Example: A VCR is connected to the TV but only the TV is
connected to the receiver. Both SOURCE SELECT
settings, TV as well as VCR, have to use the TV
input connectors.

About 6 CHANNEL DVD/SA-CD IN
The 6 CHANNEL DVD/SA-CD IN can be used to connect a
device with a built-in multichannel decoder (e.g. Dolby Digital,
DTS, etc.) and 6-channel output connector, i. e. a high end
DVD/SACD player.
When using the 6 CHANNEL DVD/SA-CD IN audio input, the
receiver works as a multichannel amplifier. The source
reproduces surround sound and sends it to the receiver
divided into the necessary channels. Therefore the
SURROUND ON/OFF, HALL and SURR. MODE buttons have no
effect since the provided signal is already multichannel.
From a source which is connected to the
6 CHANNEL DVD/SA-CD IN audio input cannot be recorded.
