Switching ANALOG/DIGITAL Signal Input
This switch moves the input fed to the receiver between analog, digital and AC-3RF sources. You need to take
special care to switch to the appropriate input, when necessary. For example, the switch would have to be on
digital to use DOLBY DIGITAL or DTS surround sound but it would have to be on analog to record from the
analog out jacks on the receiver. The default setting is AUTO (which chooses digital when all three are available
but goes with whatever is available if it is the only choice).
Press the SIGNAL SELECT button on the remote control
or on the front panel to select the input signal
corresponding to the source component.
Each press switches the signal in the order below:
ANALOG
AUTO
AC-3 RF
DIGITAL
While SIGNAL SELECT is set to DIGITAL, AC-3 lights when a Dolby
Digital signal is input, DTS lights when a DTS signal is input, or MPEG
lights when an MPEG signal is input.

• In the AUTO setting, SIGNAL SELECT chooses the signal in
the following order: AC-3RF, DIGITAL, ANALOG.
• If the Digital-In Select (see p.34) choices are set to OFF, the
SIGNAL SELECT will default to ANALOG.
• Because the audio from a karaoke microphone and LD
recorded with analog audio only is not output from the digital
output, set SIGNAL SELECT to “ANALOG”.
• This receiver can only play back Dolby Digital, PCM (32kHz,
44kHz, 48kHz, and 96kHz), DTS or MPEG digital signal
formats. It cannot play back digital signals other than these so
for those formats, you will have to play them back in an
analog manner (making sure your equipment is hooked up
with analog connections and the SIGNAL SELECT is set to
“ANALOG.”
• When an LD or CD with DTS is played back with the SIGNAL
SELECT set to “ANALOG,” digital noise caused by playing
back the DTS directly (with no decoding) is output. To prevent
noise, you need to make digital connections (See p. 10-11)
and set SIGNAL SELECT to “DIGITAL”.
• Some DVD players don’t output DTS signals. For more details,
refer to the instruction manual supplied with your DVD player.
• The SIGNAL SELECT is fixed to DIGITAL in the MPEG audio
mode.
