FEATURES Your new processor is a versatile audio/video control center. The processor is designed to sound sensational and be an attractive, easy-to-use addition to your audio/video sy stem. Although you already have a good idea of your processor’s features, we would like to take a moment to point out certain highlights.
THE BASICS The following is intended to familiarize users with common terms and applications of Home Theater equipment. Sources - your process or c an dir ec tly provide audio fr om its built-in AM/FM tuner . It c an also pr ovide lim ited video from its on- screen m enu system .
seven speak er channels, but your processor c an produce mono in one to seven channels (s ee “Audio Modes under Oper ation”). Sinc e all moder n sources are ster eo, the mono inf orm ation is usually replicated from both the left and right channels.
y ou can c reate your own DTS DAT s or CDs but not mini dis c or digital com pact cas sette. As with Dolby Digital, sound will norm ally com e fr om all seven s peaker s in your system, but y our proces sor can produc e sound in one (mono) to seven channels (see “Audio Modes under Operation”).
Bass Management - Dolby Digital and DT S form ats contain up to 5 full range c hannels plus LFE. Only a system with five full-range (large) s peakers plus a subwoofer can dir ectly reproduce these for mats .
FRONT PANEL 1. Headphone Jack - Stereo headphones having a standard ¼ inch binaural plug can be connected to the headphone output. The processor must be on and in HEADPHONE Mode for proper headphone operation. 2. Front panel buttons SLEEP PRESET ENTER SAVE DOWN U P SOURCE MODE MENU Puts the receiver in standby (low power) mode.
5. Status indicat ors - Dis play s c urrent status of the proces sors audio process or. Indicators have been s upplied to show when the DSP is decoding Dolby Digital ‘ Digital ’, Dolby Pro Logic ‘ Pro Logic ’, or DTS audio.
REAR PANEL The proc essor’s back panel is organized into groups of inputs and outputs f or audio and video as shown below. See back of this manual for an enlarged view. 1. AC input receptacle - For attaching the supplied AC power cord to the processor.
12. Component Video inputs - Switched input connections for two component video devices. 12. Component Video inputs - Switched input connections for two component video devices.
MAKING THE CONNECTION It’s tem pting to jus t plug in your new A/V process or and have great sound pour out. Bef ore you do that, take a few minutes to plan out how y ou want the processor to fit into your audio/video system. Ask yourself the following questions: What source components do I want to connect to my processor? (CD, VCR, etc.
AUDIO / VIDEO CONNECTIONS Connecting your analog sources to your processor A udio / Video source - connec ting a DVD/VLD player to the proc essor’s analog inputs. Use the sam e ins tructions for c onnecting to other audio / video s ources s uch as a televis ion, satellite rec eiver, cable box, etc .
Component Video - in addition to S-video and co mpos ite video switching, your proces sor provides two sets of com ponent video inputs f or DVD and T V/DBS type inputs, and one set of c omponent video outputs. Your process ors c om ponent video connection are passive to m inimize the possibility of video form at com patibility issues.
DIGITAL CONNECTIONS Connect digital inputs (DVD, VLD, etc .) to the process or. You will need either coax ial or optical digital inputs to play Dolby Digital (AC-3) or DT S sur round sound process ing. Digital connections are also recom m ended for PCM s ources.
SURROUND OUTPUTS Your processor has m ultiple surround outputs for use with external am plifier (s) or powered s peakers . The Referenc e 30 proces sor allows THX Surround EX c om patibility via it’s two Surround Bac k ‘S BACK’ pr ocess or outputs.
SURROUND SPEAKER OUTPUT CONNECTIONS Connect the A/V System Controller’s s urround outputs to your external am plifier( s) or powered speak ers as described previously. Connect your speakers to your external amplifier(s) as shown below. 18 p/n 12857 Rev.
ANTENNA CONNECTIONS The FM j ack is a standar d screw on F-type connector. T he AM is a push ty pe. Strip ¼ inch of insulation off y our AM antenna wires and ins ert one wire end into each hole while holding the tabs down. Release the tabs to loc k in the AM antenna wires.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS My collection of equipment differs from the labels on the back of my processor, how can I hook them up? Your process or provides 5 identic al sets of inputs - V1, V2, DVD, CD, and SAT. Each of these has analog audio, com posite video, S-video, c oaxial digital audio, and optic al digital audio.
M y laser disc player (or other digital source) has only optical output, but my CD recorder (o r other digital recorder) has only coaxial input. Do I need some sort of converter to make direct digital recordings? No, y our proc ess or will convert optical to c oaxial and coaxial to optic al.
SETUP For best results, per form the following set up proc edure when you initially install y our proces sor and anytime you change or add sources, speakers, etc. or when you rearrange your listening area THE MENU SYSTEM Setup of your processor will require y ou to navigate through the m enu system.

AUDIO MODES Your processor is des igned to work with 5 audio listening modes . Under norm al operation you may simply select Mono, Stereo, Surround, TH X or DVD Audio via the rem ote contr ol. In addition, you may choose an audio listening mode im m ediately followed by a speaker s election.
Audio Mode description MONO Sums the incoming audio infor mation to a single channel and routes it to the desired speaker. Us eful during FM tuner operation having weak RF signal strengths . It may also be useful when y ou have a large group where it is difficult to put everyone near the optimum listening position.
Speaker selection 8 ‘DIRECT’ - allows selection of the ‘analog’ signals connected to the currently selected input sources L & R RCA audio inputs overriding the use of optical or coax S/PDIF. No process ing is applied to the audio signals other than level c ontrol.
EQUALIZATION ‘EQ’ Selecting an EQ function via the remote control - allows you to override how the audio is currently being process ed. This is where you may set the Dy nam ic Range to either Norm al (def ault) or Lim ited f or late night listening while using Dolby Digital bit streams.
Select variable ‘EQ 1’ - to allow separate bass and treble settings for use with all input sources. Many systems allow only adj ustm ent of bass and tr eble levels at f ixed fr equency points.
Select loudness ‘EQ 2’ - sets the equaliz er to use preset filter c urves designed for us e when using low listening levels. T he human ear’s f requency response varies with volume level. At high levels it has relatively flat response, while at low levels its sens itivity to high and low fr equencies is r educed.
