Example: If on the amplifier CD is selected as source, the DCC 951 will automatically select the CD
source when the SELECT/PAUSE key is pressed, if on the amplifier the tuner has been selected,
the DCC 951 will also select the tuner. If in REC-PAUSE rhode the source setting on the amplifier is
changed, the DCC 951 will automatically follow the changes on thé amplifier.
