Processor Operations
Selecting a Component
To listen to or watch a connected component, first
select the function on the processor or with the remote.
Before you begin, make sure you have:
• Connected all components securely and correctly as
indicated on pages 4 to 7.
• Turned MASTER VOLUME to –20 dB (near the
centre position) (when using an amplifier with 5.1 ch
inputs).
• Turned MASTER VOLUME to –∞ dB (when using
separate amplifiers for each speaker).
1 Press U (POWER) to turn on the processor.
2 Press an INPUT button to select the component
you want to use:
* This unit’s digital inputs detect MPEG, Dolby Digital
(AC-3), or PCM signals automatically. (The AC-3 RF
input terminal for use with LD players is for Dolby
Digital (AC-3) signals only.)
** • The menu functions may not be available when the
unit is set to the “BYPASS ON” mode.
• If you connected an additional audio amplifier
(etc.) to the BYPASS IN jacks on the processor as
described on page 6, use the function selector on
that component to select the component you want
to listen to (“CD” for example).
• This unit switches to the “BYPASS ON” mode
while its POWER is set to off.
Processor Operations
3 When connected to an amplifier with 5.1 ch
inputs, turn on your amplifier, select the
respective component, then select the 5.1 channel
input.
EXAMPLE: Turn FUNCTION to select “LD”, then press
5.1 INPUT (for Sony TA-VA8ES). At this time, set the
MASTER VOLUME control on your amplifier to “0”.
4 Turn on the source component, the LD player for
example, and start playback.
5 Use the MASTER VOLUME on your amplifier to
adjust the volume.

* In order to take full advantage of the MPEG/Dolby
Digital (AC-3) bass redirection circuitry, we recommend
setting the sub woofer’s cut off frequency as high as
possible. (However, when using an amplifier with 5.1 ch
inputs, set the sub woofer’s cut off frequency to match the
characteristics of the amplifier.)
Using the remote Z
The remote lets you operate the processor.
EXAMPLE: To listen to a Dolby Digital (AC-3) encoded
Laserdisc played back in
1 Press U (POWER) on the front panel to turn on
the processor.
2 Press INPUT SELECT < or > repeatedly to display
the input for the component you want to use (or
press BYPASS to display “BYPASS ON”).
EXAMPLE: If you connected your LD player to the AC-3
RF INPUT, select “AC-3 RF”.
