USING OTHER FEATURES
The “DIRECT STEREO” mode allows sources to bypass
the decoders and DSP processors of this unit so that you
can enjoy pure hi-fi sound from 2-channel PCM and
analog sources.
Set the component selector switch to AMP and
then press DIRECT ST. on the remote control to
select “DIRECT STEREO”.
• To avoid unexpected noise, do not play CDs encoded in DTS
when the “DIRECT STEREO” mode is selected.
• When multi-channel signals (Dolby Digital and DTS) are input,
this unit automatically switches to the corresponding analog
input. When “DTS” is selected as the input mode (see page 33),
no sound will be output.
• No sound will be output from the subwoofer.
• “TONE CONTROL” (see page 31) and “SOUND MENU” (see
page 78) settings (except for speaker level settings) are not
effective.
• The front panel display automatically dims.
