Various Surround Effects (DSP)
The DSP (Digital Signal Processing) surround mode allows you to transform your living room into six different
sonic environments when listening to music or watching movies.
Midnight Listening Mode
When late night hours or other factors require that the volume be kept low, the surround effects may tend to
become less than satisfactory. When the midnight listening mode is on, you can enjoy the effects of quality
surround sound even at low volumes.
Optical Digital Output
The digital signal input can be directly output to digital recording components such as MD, DAT and CD-R from
the optical digital output jack to create digital recordings.
5.1 Channel Input
By connecting components equipped with 5.1 channel output to the DVD 5.1 channel input on this unit, you can
enjoy 5.1 channel surround sound. Connections can be made to a DVD player or Multi channel decoder equipped
with 5.1 channel analog output jacks.
5 Channels of Independent Amplification
This receiver incorporates 5 independent 60 watt power amplifiers which enable high quality playback of Dolby
Digital sound. This construction provides improved linearity and accurate reproduction of each channel for true
high fidelity reproduction from even the most demanding Dolby Digital program sources.
Remote Control of Other Components
The supplied remote control can be used to operate a variety of other components simply by recalling the
appropriate preset code.
The Energy-saving Design
This unit is designed to use minimal electricity when power is switched OFF (during Standby). Regarding the value
of the power consumption in standby mode, refer to “Specifications” on the back cover.
