Input modes and indications
This unit comes with a variety input jacks. You can select
the type of input signals you desire.
Each time you turn on the power of this unit, the input
mode is set according to “8 INPUT MODE” setting on
the SET MENU (see page 46 for details).
1
Press INPUT MODE (the input selector
button that you have pressed to select the
input source on the remote control)
repeatedly until the desired input mode is
shown on the front panel display.
AUTO:
In this mode, the input signal is selected
automatically as follows:
1) Digital signal
2) Analog signal
DTS:
In this mode, only the digital input signal
encoded with DTS is selected, even if
another signal is input at the same time.
ANALOG: In this mode, only the analog input signal is
selected, even if a digital signal is input at
the same time.
Notes
• When AUTO is selected, this unit automatically determines the
type of signal. If this unit detects a Dolby Digital or DTS
signal, the decoder automatically switches to the appropriate
setting.
• When playing a disc encoded with Dolby Digital or DTS on
some LD or DVD players, the sound output delays for a
moment when playback resumes after a search because the
digital signal is selected again.
• When playing a LD source that has not been digitally recorded,
the sound may not be output for some LD players. In this case,
set the input mode to ANALOG.

Notes on 96-kHz sampling digital
signals
The digital input jacks of this unit can handle 96-kHz
sampling digital signals. Note the following when 96-kHz
sampling digital signal is input to this unit:
– DSP programs cannot be selected.
– Sound will be output as 2-channel stereo from only the
main left and right speakers. (There may be sound
output from the subwoofer depending on the
SPEAKER MODE settings on the SET MENU.)
Therefore, the level of the effect speakers cannot be
adjusted while listening to such a source.
■
Notes on playing DTS-CD/LDs
• If the digital output data of the player has been
processed in any way, you may not be able to perform
DTS decoding even if you make a digital connection
between this unit and the player.
• If you play a source encoded with a DTS signal and
set the input mode to ANALOG, this unit may
reproduce the noise of an unprocessed DTS signal. In
this case, connect the source to a digital input jack and
set the input mode to AUTO or DTS.
• If you switch the input mode to ANALOG while
playing a source encoded with a DTS signal, this unit
reproduces no sound.
• If you play a source encoded with a DTS signal with
the input mode set to AUTO;
– This unit automatically switches to the DTS-
decoding mode (The “
t
” indicator lights up) after
having detected the DTS signal. When playback of
the DTS source is completed, the “
t
” indicator
may flash. While this indicator is flashing, only DTS
source can be played. If you want to play a normal
PCM source soon, set the input mode back to AUTO.
– When the input mode is set to AUTO and a search or
skip operation is performed during playback of a
DTS source, the “
t
” indicator may flash. If this
status continues for longer than 30 seconds, this unit
will automatically switch from “DTS-decoding”
mode to PCM digital signal input mode. The “
t
”
indicator will turn off.
