Playing Sources with Dolby Digital or DTS Sound
The following instructions show you how to play Dolby Digital or DTS sound sources with the VSX-27TX/26TX/24TX.
1 Turn on the receiver.
2 Press the function button of the component (DVD/
LD etc.) you want to listen to/watch.
You can only use this remote to control the component if it's
made by PIONEER. For all other makers you need to setup the
remote specifically to control your component (See p. 48).
3 Choose a sound mode by pressing THX, ADVANCED
THEATER or STANDARD.
The default setting is STEREO.
(For more see “Sound Modes” p. 36-37.)
4 Press SIGNAL SELECT on the remote control or
SIGNAL SELECT on the front panel to select the
input signal corresponding to the source
component (VSX-27TX can be set to AUTO, while
the VSX-26TX/24TX should be set to DIGITAL).
(See “Switching ANALOG/DIGITAL signal input” on p. 40.)
5 Play a source (for example, a DVD player).
6 Adjust the volume by using the volume buttons on
the remote control or the MASTER VOLUME on the
front panel.
VSX-26TX and VSX-24TX models :
When playing LD recorded in Dolby Digital
When connecting a DVD/LD player or LD player using the AC-3 RF output, a commercially available RF demodulator
(RFD-1) is required. The RF demodulator changes the RF signal to a digital signal which is then processed by the
receiver at the digital input jacks. For more details, refer to the instruction manual supplied with the RFD-1.
Refer to pages 72, 73 for explanations of Dolby Digital, Dolby Pro Logic, and DTS.
VSX-27TX model :
Make sure you connect your DVD/LD or LD players using the AC-3 RF jack. If your player has an AC-3 RF output this will
ensure you can use all LDs. Refer to pages 10, 11 and 34.

We recommend using different modes for different types of
DTS material. For watching movies, the THX or ADVANCED
THEATER setting should provide the best results. For
listening to music, the STANDARD, DIRECT, STEREO, or DSP
modes should serve the listener best.
