Switching Input modes
To fully enjoy the sonic benefits of specially-encoded DVD AUDIO discs
played on a compatible DVD player, you must set the receiver’s input to
6CH INPUT.
When you are finished listening to analog media, set the receiver’s input
back to FULL AUTO.
1. Press the INPUT MODE key on the receiver or press the F.SHIFT =
SOUND (INPUT MODE)* key on Remote Control unit.
2. Repeat step 1 until the desired input mode is displayed.
If you turn off the receiver, select a different source device, the “Digi-
tal Auto” or “Digital manual” is reset to “Full Auto”.
When you use “Digital Auto” or “Full Auto” mode with certain DVD
and LD players, performing operations such as “Skip” or “Stop” may
momentarily interrupt the output.

How Do I Adjust the Sound?
Applying Digital Signal Processor (DSP) Effects
The DSP mode creates the reverberation devices (elements of sound ech-
oed in various spaces) which determine the feeling of presence. Since
DSP uses digital processing, it can produce these effects without soiling
the sound quality of the original music or video source.
The DSP mode lets you add the atmosphere of an Arena, Jazz Club, Sta-
dium, Cathedral or Theater from any PCM or analog input source. These
modes are particularly effective when used with stereo program sources
like CD, television and FM radio. You might enjoy trying the STADIUM
or ARENA mode the next time you watch a sporting event or concert.
You can adjust the following elements to create a customized environment:
The WALL TYPE parameter lets you adjust the brightness of the sonic
environment according to your preference.
The ROOM SIZE parameter lets you adjust the size of the sonic envi-
ronment according to your preference.
The EFFECT level lets you adjust the amount of DSP “presence” in
the sonic environment according to your preference.
