Switching the display
While listening to or watching an input source, you can display the
information regarding the type of source and signal being input by
pressing the Display button on the DTR-8.3 or the remote controller.
When an input source other than FM or AM is selected:

Program format*
Input +
Listening mode
or Multi Ch
* When the input signal is digital audio
The program format is displayed. For example, the display
“Dolby D: 3/2.1” shows that the format is Dolby Digital with 5.1
discrete channels consisting of three front channels (front left,
front right, and center), two surround channels (surround left and
surround right), and the low frequency effect (LFE) channel.
When the front channel number is 2, they are the front left and
front right; when it is 1, it is monaural. When the surround
channel number is 1, it is monaural; when it is 0, there is no
surround channel. When no LFE number is given, there is no
LFE channel. Also, if there is no program format for the input
signal, nothing will be displayed.
When the input signal is linear PCM
The sampling frequency is displayed. For example, the display
“PCM fs: 44.1k” shows that the signal is PCM and that the
sampling frequency is 44.1 kHz.
When FM or AM is selected as the input source:

Temporarily turning off the sound
To turn off the sound momentarily, press the MUTE button on the
remote controller. When pressed, “Muting” is displayed on the
DTR-8.3. Press the MUTING button again to turn the sound back
on.
Adjusting the bass and treble
You can adjust the bass and treble levels at the Setup Menu → Audio
Adjust Menu → Tone Control Sub-menu (see page 56). The treble
level affects the front left and right speakers and center speaker. The
Bass level affects the front left and right speakers, center speaker,
and subwoofer. This function will not work if the listening mode is
set to “Direct” or “Pure Audio.”
Listening with headphones
To listen with headphones, plug a pair of headphones with a standard
stereo plug into the PHONES jack on the DTR-8.3 front panel.
When you connect headphones, no sound will be heard from the
speakers.
When the headphones are unplugged, the DTR-8.3 returns to its
original listening mode. When using the headphones, you can only
use the Direct, Stereo, and Mono listening modes. (Available
modes can vary depending on the current input source.)
If you have selected MULTI CH INPUT, you will only hear the
sound only output to the front right and left channels.
The headphone volume level can be adjusted at the Setup Menu
(see page 63).
Note:
The signal to the remote zone (Zone 2) will not be affected by
whether or not headphones are connected.
