CAUTION
The variable sound intensity range is large when playing
back a CD or MD. So, if the source that includes the
sudden change from a small sound level to large one is
played back at a maximum volume for a long time, the
speakers may be damaged.
Switching the input mode
This function allows you to switch the input mode of the
component connected to the DIGITAL 1 or DIGITAL 2
terminal to “Auto Mode” or “dts Fix”.
Auto Mode : This recognizes the PCM signal such as a CD,
Dolby digital signal or DTS signal
automatically.
dts Fix : This fixes to a DTS signal.
Normally, the playback can be performed with the “Auto
Mode”. If you play a CD encoded with DTS in the “Auto
Mode” setting, there will be a short noise at first while the
unit recognizes the DTS signal and turns on the DTS
decoder. This is not a malfunction and can be avoided by
setting the input mode to “dts Fix” beforehand. When you
play and stop a CD encoded with DTS in the “Auto Mode”
setting, the sound is muted even if you play the PCM signal
such as a normal CD and the
indicator flashes for about
30 seconds. However, this condition is released after about
30 seconds.
1 Press the INPUT or AV selector button to
select DIGITAL 1 or DIGITAL 2.
2 Press the INPUT or AV selector button again
for about 3 seconds to switch the input mode.
Each time the button is pressed for about 3 seconds, the
input mode is switched between “Auto Mode” and “dts
Fix”, and displayed as follows.
“D1$ dts Fix” “D1$Auto Mode”
•“D1” or “D2” is displayed before the selected input
mode when DIGITAL 1 or DIGITAL 2 is selected
respectively.
Notes
• The indicator lights when “dts Fix” is selected, and goes off
when a digital signal encoded with DTS is not input in the “Auto
Mode” setting.
• The setting of the input mode returns to “Auto mode” when the
power of the control center is turned off.
• When playing a source encoded with DTS, be sure to connect the
player to the DIGITAL 1 or DIGITAL 2 input terminal of the
control center with an optical fiber cable.
• If the digital output data of the player has been processed in any
way, you may not be able to perform DTS decoding even if you
make a digital connection between this unit and the player.
