ANALOG
• This receiver can only play back Dolby Digital, PCM (32kHz, 44kHz, and
DIGITAL
48kHz), DTS, digital signal formats. With digital signal formats other
DTS
than these, set SIGNAL SELECT to "ANALOG".
• When an LD or CD player compatible with DTS is played back with
SIGNAL SELECT set in "ANALOG", digital noise is output caused by
playing back the DTS directly (no decoding). To prevent noise, you
need to make digital connections (Refer to page 11) and set SIGNAL
SELECT to "DIGITAL".
• Some DVD players don't output DTS signals. For more details, refer to
the instruction manual supplied with your DVD player.
• Audio from a karaoke microphone and some LDs are analog so set the
SIGNAL SELECT to "ANALOG" in these cases.
• For analog LDs and karaoke microphones, set the switch to
"ANALOG."
