Connections / Analog Audio Connections
Please read the following text as additional to the text:
DTS Digital Surround™ is a discrete 5.1-channel digital audio format available on CD, LD, and DVD software which consequently cannot
be decoded and played back inside most CD, LD, or DVD players. For this reason, when DTS-encoded software is played back through the
analog outputs of the CD, LD, or DVD player, excessive noise will be exhibited. To avoid possible damage to the audio system, proper pre-
cautions should be taken by the customer if the analog outputs are connected directly to the receiver.
To enjoy DTS Digital Surround™ playback, a DTS-compatible player has to be connected to one of the digital inputs of the receiver.
System Setup

Receiver Adjustment
Once the number and position of loudspeakers has been fixed, you can adjust the initial receiver settings for optimal surround sound with
the actual setup:

Note: The initial setting of your receiver is:
two front speakers left and right: present (cannot be altered)
center speaker: present
two rear speakers: present
subwoofer: present

Select the size of the speakers (SMALL or LARGE) (see "Menus: Speaker Sizes" )
Select SMALL if your speaker is able to reproduce low notes down to at least 80-100 Hz.
Select LARGE if your speaker is able to reproduce low notes down to at least 50 Hz.
(As a rule of thumb, a LARGE speaker has a cone diameter of at least 12 cms (5 inches}.}
