Switching Analog And Digital Signal Input - Pioneer VSX-D709S Operating Instructions Manual

Basic Playback

Switching Analog and Digital Signal Input

This switch moves the input fed to the receiver between analog and digital sources. You need to take special
care to switch to the appropriate input, when necessary. For example, the switch would have to be on DIGITAL
to use DOLBY DIGITAL or DTS surround sound but it would have to be on ANALOG to record to the analog out
jacks on the receiver. The default setting is AUTO (priority is given to a digital signal, if there is one).

memo
• In the AUTO setting, SIGNAL SELECT chooses the signal in the following order: DIGITAL, ANALOG.
• If the Digital-In Select (see page 29) choices are set to OFF, the SIGNAL SELECT will default to ANALOG.
• Because the audio from a karaoke microphone and LD recorded with analog audio only is not output from
the digital output, set SIGNAL SELECT to ANALOG.
• This receiver can only playback Dolby Digital, PCM (32kHz, 44kHz, 48kHz, and 96kHz), and DTS digital
signal formats. If you have some equipment that outputs digital audio in a format other than these you'll
have to connect and playback via the receiver's analog inputs (make sure that SIGNAL SELECT is set to
ANALOG).
• When an LD or CD with DTS is played back with the SIGNAL SELECT set in ANALOG, digital noise caused
by playing back the DTS directly (with no decoding) is output. To prevent noise, you need to make digital
connections (See pages 13 and 14) and set SIGNAL SELECT to DIGITAL or AUTO.
• Some DVD players don't output DTS signals. For more details, refer to the instruction manual supplied with
your DVD player.
• The levels between analog and digital sources may vary so be careful with volume levels when switching
between these two.
