RSP-1098
Surround Sound Processor
through an analog 100 Hz low pass filter,
creating a summed mono subwoofer output
derived from the main channels. See the
IN-
PUT SETUP menu in the Setup section of this
manual for details on bass redirect feature.
TV Monitor
Connect the TV MONITOR
output to the cor-
responding
input on your television monitor,
using composite video, S-Video, and/or Com-
ponent Video cables.
NOTE
:
The RCA composite video output only
sends signals from RCA composite video
source inputs to the TV monitor. The S-Video
output only sends signals from S-Video video
source inputs to the TV. The RSP-1098
upconverts composite and S-Video signals to
Component Video signals. Therefore, the
Component Video output sends signals from
any source input to the TV.
When configuring the unit, you must specify
either an NTSC or a PAL standard TV moni-
tor. See the
Other Options menu in the Setup
section of this manual.
Amplifiers and Powered
Subwoofers
To hook up a powered subwoofer,
connect a standard RCA audio cable from
either the two PREOUT jacks labeled SUB to
the input on the subwoofer’s power amp. Both
SUB outputs provide the same signal.
To hook up amplifiers,
connect an audio
cable from each PREOUT jack to the input of
the amplifier channel that will power the cor-
responding speaker. In a full home theater
system, you will need to make five different
connections in addition to the subwoofer . These
connections are labeled FRONT L &R, CEN-
TER, and REAR L & R. There are two CENTER
jacks, use either jack for a single center channel
or both if you have two center channels
In six or seven channel systems, you will make
one or two additional connections for center
back speaker(s). These jacks are labeled CB1
and CB2. Use CB1 for a single center back
channel.
Make sure that you have each output connected
to the correct amplifier channel (front right, left
rear, etc.).
OPERATING
THE RSP-1098
Considering its large number of features, set-
tings, and options, the RSP-1098 is remark-
ably easy to operate. The key to the operat-
ing the RSP-1098 is its system of On-Screen
Displays (OSD) which guide you through
various choices. These OSD menus can ap-
pear on the television monitor and/or on the
front panel TFT color LCD screen.
The RSP-1098 can be operated from the front
panel or the remote control. Front panel con-
trols are unusually simple to use, with just a
few knobs and buttons to guide you through
OSD menu options. The remote control pro-
vides more complete control options.
To guide you through the operation of the
RSP-1098, this section of the manual starts with
explaining the basic layout and function of the
front panel and the remote control. Then, we
explain the basic operations such as turning
the unit on and off, adjusting volume, select-
ing a source for listening, etc. Following that
is a detailed explanation of surround sound
modes and how to configure the RSP-1098
for various types of recordings. Finally, there
are instructions for additional features and Zone
2 operations. All of these are features that may
be used in normal use. The last section of the
manual (Configuration) details options that may
be selected during initial setup and configu-
ration of the unit, many of which will be set
once and left untouched.
Throughout this manual, numbers in gray boxes
refer to the RSP-1098 illustration at the front
of this manual. Letters refer to the RR-1050 re-
mote illustration. When both appear, the func-
tion is found on both the RSP-1098 and the
remote. When only one appears, that func-
tion is found only on the RSP-1098 or the re-
mote.
Front Panel Overview
The following is a brief overview of the con-
trol and features on the front panel of the
RSP-1098. Details concerning the use of these
controls are provided in subsequent sections
of this manual describing various tasks.
Color TFT Display
In the center of the front panel is a large
widescreen format TFT color LCD display. The
display is used for two purposes: displaying
OSD menus and as a built-in TV monitor for
any composite video signal coming into the
RSP-1098, making it ideal for navigating DVD
menus, monitoring a remote camera, or just
watching TV.
MENU button
The MENU button toggles on or off the SYS-
TEM STATUS menu showing the current set-
tings of the RSP-1098. Pressing the ENTER
button on the remote (or the FUNCTION knob
on the front panel) from the SYSTEM STATUS
menu takes you to additional menus for con-
figuring the RSP-1098’s many options. See the
Setup section of the manual for more detail
on the OSD menus.
NOTE
:
Turn off power to the front panel display
by pressing and holding the MENU button.
DISPLAY Button
The DISPLAY button provides access to two set-
tings for the front panel TFT screen and OSD
menu displays: selecting a video source for
display on the TFT screen and selecting whether
OSD menus are displayed on the front panel
TFT, the TV monitor, or both.
STANDBY Button
The front panel STANDBY button activates or
deactivates the unit. The rear panel master
STANDBY button must be in the ON position
for the remote standby function to operate.
VOLUME Knob
The large knob at the right side of the front
panel is the master VOLUME control, adjust-
ing the output level of all channels simulta-
neously. In addition, it can be used to adjust
the ZONE 2 volume.
