B for front L/R channels.
You can select these systems by pressing

button on the front panel or 

SPKR

A/B 

on the remote

6.1 CH INPUT.

The SR6400 is equipped for future expansion
through the use of Multi channel SACD multichannel
player or DVD-Audio player.
When this is selected, the input signals connected
to the L(front left), R (front right), CENTER, SL
(surround left), SR (surround right) and SB
(surround back)   channels of the 6.1 CH. In jacks
are output directly to the front (left and right),
center, surround (left and right) and surround back
speaker systems as well as the pre-out jacks
without passing through the surround circuitry.
In addition, the signal input to the SW (subwoofer)
jack is output to the PRE OUT SW (subwoofer)
jack.
When 6.1 CH. INPUT is selected, the last video
input used remains routed to the 

Monitor Outputs

.

This permits simultaneous viewing with video
sources.

1.

Select a desired Video source to decide the
routed video signal to the 

Monitor Outputs .

2.

Press the 

6.1 CH INPUT

 button on the front

panel or press 

7.1/6.1 IN 

on the remote to

switch the 6.1 channel input.

RECORDING AN ANALOG SOURCE

In normal operation, the audio or video source
selected for listening through the SR6400 is sent to
the record outputs.
This means that any program you are watching or
listening to may be recorded simply by placing
machines connected to the outputs for 

TAPE OUT,

CD-R/MD OUT, VCR1 OUT, and DSS/VCR2 OUT

in the record mode.

To record the input source signal you are
currently watching or listening to

1.

Select the input source to record by pressing
the corresponding 

input selector

 button.

The input source is now selected and you may
watch or listen to it as desired.

2.

The currently selected input source signal is
output to the 

TAPE OUT , CD-R/MD OUT, VCR1

OUT, and DSS/VCR2 OUT

 outputs for recording.

3.

Start recording to the recording component as
desired.

Recording the video from one source and the
audio from another

You can add the sound from one source to the
video of another source to make your own video
recordings.
Below is an example of recording the sound from a
compact disc player connected to CD IN and the
video from a video camera connected to AUX IN to
video cassette recorder connected to the VCR1 OUT
jack.

1.

Press the 

AUX

 input source button to set

video output.

2.

Press the 

CD 

input source button to set audio

output.

3.

Now “CD” has been selected as the audio
input source and “AUX” as the video input
source.

Notes:

• If you change the input source during recording,

you will record the signals from the newly selected
input source.

• You cannot record the surround effects.

• Digital input signals are only output to the digital

outputs. There is no conversion from digital to
analog .

When connecting CD players and other digital
components, do not connect only the digital
terminals, but the analog ones as well.

HT-EQ

Press the 

EQ

 button on the remote to turn on the

HT-EQ mode.
The tonal balance of a film soundtrack will be
excessively bright and harsh when played back
over audio equipment in the home. This is because
film soundtracks were designed to be played back
in large movie theater environments.
Activating the HT-EQ feature when watching a film
made for movie theaters corrects this and restores
the correct tonal balance.

If it is necessary to adjust the output level of
each channel, use “6.1 Ch. INPUT LEVEL”  in
the OSD menu system as desired.
Adjust the speaker output levels so that you
can hear the same sound level from each
speaker at the listening position. For the front
left, front right, center, surround left, surround
right and surround back speakers, the output
levels can be adjusted between –10 to +10 dB.
The subwoofer can be adjusted between –15
and +10 dB.
These adjustments will be stored to 6.1 Ch.
INPUT memory.  (see to page 18)

4.

Adjust the main volume with the 

MAIN VOLUME

knob or the 

VOL

 buttons on the remote.

To cancel the 6.1 Ch. INPUT setting, press the 

6.1

CH INPUT

 button on the front panel or press 

7.1/6.1

IN 

on the remote.

Notes:

• When the 6.1 Ch. Input is in use, you may not

select a surround mode, as the external decoder
determines processing.

• In addition, there is no signal at the record outputs

when the 6.1 Ch. Input is in use.
