5 3 CAUTIONS ON HANDLING 4 FEA TURES • Switching the input function when input jacks are not connected A clicking noise may be produced if the input function is switched when nothing is connected to the input jacks. If this happens, either turn down the MASTER VOLUME control or connect components to the input jacks.
6 5 CONNECTIONS • Do not plug in the AC cord until all connections have been completed. • Be sure to connect the left and right channels properly (left with left, right with right). • Insert the plugs securely . Incomplete connections will result in the generation of noise.
7 Connecting video components • T o connect the video signal, connect using a 75 Ω /ohms video signal cable cord. Using an improper cable can result in a drop in video quality . • When making connections, also refer to the operating instructions of the other components.
8 Connecting a video component equipped with S-Video jacks • When making connections, also refer to the operating instructions of the other components. • A note on the S input jacks The input selectors for the S inputs and pin jack inputs work in conjunction with each other .

10 Connecting a Video Component Equipped with Color Difference (Component - Y , C R , C B ) Video Jacks (DVD Player) • When making connections, also refer to the operating instructions of the other components.
11 Connecting the external input (EXT . IN) jacks • These jacks are for inputting multi-channel audio signals from an outboard decoder , or a component with a different type of mu lti-channel decoder , such as a Super Audio DVD player , or a multi-channel SACD player , or other future multi-channel sound format decoder .
12 Speaker system connections • Connect the speaker terminals with the speakers making sure that like polarities are matched ( ≈ with ≈ , √ with √ ). Mismatching of polarities will result in weak central sound, unclear orientation of the various instruments, and the sense of direction of the stereo being impaired.
13 • This unit is equipped with a high-speed protection circuit. The purpose of this circuit is to protect the speakers under circumstances such as when the output of the power amplifier is inadvert.

63 Surround back speakers A 6.1-channel system is a conventional 5.1-channel system to which the “surround back” (SB) channel has been added. This makes it easy to achieve sound positioned directly behind the listener , something that was previously difficult with sources designed for conven tional multi surround speakers.
64 • Set the front speakers, center speaker and subwoofer in the same positions as in example (1). • It is best to place the surround speakers directly at the side or slightly to the front of the viewing position, and 60 to 90 cm above the ears. • Same as surround back speaker installation method (1).
65 • Set the front speakers slightly wider apart than the setup for watching movies only and point them toward the listening position in order assure clear positioning of the sound. • Set the center speaker in the same positions as in example (1).
66 Surround The A VR-3801 is equipped with a digital signal processing circuit that lets you play program sources in the surround mode to ac hieve the same sense of presence as in a movie theater . Dolby Surround (1) Dolby Digital (Dolby Surround AC-3) Dolby Digital is the multi-channel digital signal format developed by Dolby Laboratories.
67 (2) Dolby Pro Logic Dolby Pro Logic is a multi-channel signal playback system developed by Dolby Laboratories which decodes sources recorded in Dol by Surround into four channels: front left, center , front right and surround (the surround channel is monaural, but is played thro ugh two surround speakers).
