Playback using the external input (EXT. IN) jacks
1 Set the external input (EXT.
IN) mode.
Press the EXT. IN button to
switch the external input.
Once this is selected, the input signals connected to the FL
(front left), FR (front right), C (center), SL (surround left) and
SR (surround right) channels of the EXT. IN jacks are output
directly to the front (left and right), center and surround (left
and right) speaker systems as well as the pre-out jacks
without passing through the surround circuitry.
In addition, the signal input to the SW (subwoofer) jack is
output to the PRE OUT SUBWOOFER jack.
2 Cancelling the external input mode
To cancel the external input (EXT. IN) setting, press the INPUT
MODE (AUTO, PCM, DTS) or ANALOG button to switch to
the desired input mode. (See page 40.)
INPUT MODE
(Main unit)
• When the input mode is set to the external input (EXT. IN), the play
mode (DIRECT, STEREO, STANDARD (DOLBY/DTS SURROUND),
5CH/7CH STEREO or DSP SIMULATION) cannot be selected.
Playing audio sources (CDs and DVDs)
The AVR-2105/885 is equipped with two 2-channel playback modes exclusively for music.
Select the mode to suit your tastes.
1 DIRECT mode
Use this mode to achieve good quality 2-
channel sound while watching images. In
this mode, the audio signals bypass such
circuits as the tone circuit and are
transmitted directly, resulting in good
quality sound.
2 STEREO mode
Use this mode to adjust the tone and
achieve the desired sound while watching
images.

NOTES:
• In play modes other than the external input mode, the signals
connected to EXT. IN jacks cannot be played. In addition, signals
cannot be output from channels not connected to the input
jacks.
• The external input mode can be set for any input source. To
watch video while listening to sound, select the input source to
which the video signal is connected, then set this mode.
• If the subwoofer output level seems to high, set the "SW ATT."
surround parameter to "ON".
