1-1. GETTING ST AR TED Unpac king If you ha v en’t already done so , carefully remo v e this unit and its accessories from the box and wr apping material.
● When you notice that remote control oper ation has become erratic , or the distance from which the remote control will function has decreased, it’ s time to replace the batteries. Alw a ys replace all batteries at the same time. ● This remote control uses an adv anced, highly directional infr ared beam.
This Dolby Pro Logic Surround Decoder emplo ys a digital signal processing system. This system improv es the stability of sound at each channel and crosstalk between channels , so that positioning of sounds around the room is more accurate compared with conv entional analog signal processing systems .
Setting Up Y our Speaker System This unit has been designed to provide the best sound field quality with a full fiv e-speak er system setup , using one e xtra pairs of eff ect speak ers to gener ate the sound field plus one center speak er f or dialog, when using Dolb y Pro Logic Surround decoding.
Speakers and Speaker Placement Y our full fiv e-speaker system will require tw o speak er pairs: the MAIN SPEAKERS (y our normal stereo speakers) and the REAR EFFECT SPEAKERS , plus the CENTER SPEAKER. Y ou ma y also be using a subwoof er . Y ou will probably use y our present stereo speak ers as the MAIN SPEAKER pair .

1 A udio Signal Connection J ac ks (f or A udio Source Equipment) Connect the inputs and/or outputs of y our audio equipment. 2 A udio/Video Signal Connection J ac ks (f or Video Source Equipment) Connect the audio and video inputs and/or outputs of y our video equipment.
10 GENERAL INSTR UCTIONS FOR CONNECTIONS Make sure that y ou hav e the left (L) and right (R) channels correctly connected. That means that jac ks marked “L ” on this unit must be connected to jac ks marked “L ” on other units. Lik e wise with the “R” jacks .
CONNECTING T O S VIDEO J A CKS If your video cassette recorder , video disc pla y er , etc. and your monitor are equipped with “S” (high-resolution) video terminals, connect them to this unit’ s S VIDEO jac ks , and connect this unit’ s S VIDEO MONIT OR OUT jac k to the “S” video input of y our monitor .
CONNECTING SPEAKER SYSTEMS Connect the SPEAKERS terminals to your speakers with wire of the proper gauge, cut as shor t as possible . If the connections are f aulty , no sound will be heard from the speakers . Mak e sure that the polarity of the speaker wires is correct, that is , + and – markings are obser ved.
13 CONNECTING THE MAIN SPEAKERS AND THE REAR EFFECT SPEAKERS T O THIS UNIT Connect the MAIN speak ers to the MAIN SPEAKERS terminals of this unit. Connect the REAR eff ect speak ers to the REAR SPEAKERS ter minals of this unit. CONNECTING THE CENTER SPEAKER(S) T O THIS UNIT Connect the CENTER speak er to the CENTER SPEAKERS ter minals.
14 For connecting two CENTER speaker s ADDING A SUBW OOFER Y ou may wish to add a subw oof er to reinf orce the bass frequencies. This unit provides a line-le v el subw oof er output, which contains only the frequencies under 200 Hz from the main and center channels.
ADDITIONAL INFORMA TION ON CONNECTING SPEAKERS (f or Europe, U .K. and A ustralia models) This unit is equipped with line output jac ks f or main, rear eff ect and center channels. If you will use an e xternal power amplifier f or driving main speakers , connect input jac ks of the e xternal power amplifier to the MAIN OUTPUT jac ks of this unit.

NO TE: Adjusting the MASTER V OLUME, BASS , TREBLE controls , etc., or selecting a sound field progr am has no eff ect on the material being recorded. NO TE: Composite video and S video signals pass independently through this unit’ s video circuits .
2-3. DIGIT AL SOUND FIELD PROGRAMS This unit has 16 progr ams f or digital sound field processing, 4 from actual acoustic en vironments from around the world, and 12 programs f or A udio/Video sources including sources encoded with Dolby Pro Logic surround.
29 2-7. DESCRIPTIONS OF THE SOUND FIELD PR OGRAMS The f ollo wing list giv es brief descriptions of the sound fields produced by each of the DSP prog r ams. K eep in mind that most of these are precise digital recreations of actual acoustic en vironments .
5. CONCER T VIDEO: This program produces an enthusiastic atmosphere and lets y ou f eel that y ou are in the midst of the action, as if attending an actual jazz or roc k concer t.
9. TV THEA TER: The data of the sound field of a relativ ely narro w space is used f or the front presence side. A moder ately siz ed spatial sound field without e xcessiv e sound e xtension and re v erber ations giv es reality to the characters in a dr ama.
32 13. 70 mm MO VIE THEA TER 1: This program is ideal f or precisely reproducing the sound design of the new est mo vies . The sound field is made according to the design of the new est mo vie theaters , so the re v erberations of the sound field itself are restrained as m uch as possib le .
33 3-1. SELECTING AND EDITING PR OGRAM P ARAMETERS WHA T IS A SOUND FIELD? In order to e xplain the impressiv e functions of the DSP system, we need to first understand what a sound field really is . What really creates the rich, full tones of a live instrument are the multiple reflections from the w alls of the room.
Each sound field progr am has a set of parameters that allo w y ou to change the characteristics of the acoustic en vironment to create precisely the eff ect y ou w ant. These par ameters correspond to the many natur al acoustic f actors that create the sound field y ou e xperience in an actual concer t hall or other listening environment.
35 3-2. DESCRIPTIONS OF THE DIGIT AL SOUND FIELD P ARAMETERS Not all of the f ollo wing par ameters are f ound in e v ery program. ● INIT DL Y (Initial Delay) How it Aff ects the Sound: Changes the apparent distance from the source sound.
36 ● REV . TIME (Reverberation Time) How it Aff ects the Sound: The natural re v erberation time of a room depends primarily on its size and the char acteristics of its inner surf aces . This parameter , theref ore , changes the apparent siz e of the acoustic en vironment ov er an e xtremely wide r ange .
37 PROBLEM POSSIBLE CAUSE WHAT TO DO Power does not come on. AC cord not properly plugged in. Carefully plug AC plug into outlet. Hum. Bad cable connection. Firmly plug in all connection cables. No sound. Bad or incorrect input connection. Check connections.
