5.1/6.1/7.1 Direct in

DVD-A or SACD players can be connected to the 650R via its 5.1/6.1/7.1
Direct inputs allowing multi-channel music playback from these new sources.
DVD-A and SACD both support 5.1 output. The 650R's direct inputs also allow
optional connection of Surround Back or Surround Left and Surround Right
signals for compatibility with future 6.1 or 7.1 sources or external decoders.
To select the Direct Input press the 7.1 Direct button on the front panel or
remote.
Note: The 650R leaves the current video source selected for viewing when
you select 7.1 Direct for audio.
This can be useful for universal DVD/DVD-A/SACD players for instance which
can be connected to the 650R by two methods for audio at the same time.
A Digital or HDMI input can be made to the 650R for surround sound
decoding and an analogue 5.1 connection to 7.1 Direct for DVD-A/SACD
playback.
If the player is selected via the BD/DVD button you can then view its content
and decode any relevant surround sound soundtracks.
