CONNECTING TO AN EXTERNAL DECODER

This unit is equipped with additional 6-channel audio signal
input terminals for inputting signals from an external decoder to
this unit.
Connect the 6-channel audio signal output terminals of the
decoder to the EXTERNAL DECODER INPUT terminals of this
unit.

Notes
• When signals input to these terminals are selected, the digital

sound field processor cannot be used.

• The settings of “CNTR”, “REAR”, “MAIN” and “BASS” in the

SET MENU mode have no effect on the signals input to these
terminals.  The setting of “M.LVL” is effective.  (Refer to
page 21 for details.)

• Adjustment of the output level of the center speakers, rear

speakers and subwoofer is effective when the signals input to
these terminals are selected as the input source. (Refer to
page 39 for details.)
