Selecting the input signal type
Most of the audio inputs have both analog and digital
jacks. You can select the type of signal to be used in each
case.
The input signal type for the current input is indicated in
the display. With digital signals, the signal type (Dolby
Digital or DTS) also shows in the display.
The default AUTO setting is usually sufficient, letting the
receiver decide the most suitable signal type. However, if
you want to record from the DVR/VCR1 IN/OUT jacks,
then you should set the input signal type to analog.
If you have selected the USB interface or the
multichannel analog inputs as your input source, see
Selecting USB and multichannel analog input channels
below.
Press SIGNAL SELECT to select the type of input
signal for the current source.
With the remote, you may need to press on the
Home menu ( ) first before reaching the receiver menu
screen shown below (use the / (cursor left/right)
soft keys to go to the previous/next menu screen).
Press repeatedly to choose between:
ANALOG – Selects an analog signal.
– Selects an i.LINK signal.
DIGITAL – Selects an optical or coaxial digital signal.
2 RF – Selects a 2 RF signal.
AUTO – This is the default setting. The receiver
selects the first available signal in the following
order: ; 2 RF; DIGITAL; ANALOG.
Note
If no digital inputs (including the 2 RF input) are
assigned for the current source, the input signal type
will default to ANALOG.
When using DIGITAL IN terminals the following
digital signal formats are supported: Dolby Digital,
DTS and PCM (32, 44.1, 48, 88.2 and 96 kHz sampling
frequencies). If you are using the i.LINK connectors,
DVD-A (including 176.4/192 kHz) and SACD are also
supported. If your source is not supported, select
ANALOG.
Some DVD players don’t output DTS signals. For
more details, refer to the instruction manual supplied
with your DVD player.
Even when i.LINK is selected and the i.LINK indicator
lights, you won’t hear any sound if the output settings
of your i.LINK device are off.
The audio signal from karaoke microphones and
some LDs is not output from the digital outputs.
Select ANALOG to listen to these formats.
