•
When you select “MULTI CH” as the input source, the digital sound field processor and tone control are
automatically disabled.
•
As this unit does not redirect signals input through the MULTI CH INPUT jacks to compensate for
missing speakers, make appropriate settings on the multi-format player or the external decoder that suit
to the speaker configuration.
•
When the input source is switched to “MULTI CH,” images input from a component connected to the
AV1-7 or VIDEO AUX jacks can be displayed on a video monitor (
). If your DVD player does
not support multi-channel digital output, connect it to these input jacks.
