Page 81 highlights

Sound A Dolby Digital Surround EX-encoded source is played with THX Surround EX set to "Auto", but the source is not reproduced in 6.1channel audio. • Some encoded sources (discs) do not contain the recording of the encoding identification signal. To reproduce such sources in 6.1-channel audio, set THX Surround EX to ON. See "To set the THX Mode" on page 24 of this manual. Sound from one (or more) of my components is abnormally loud or soft Adjust the analog input level for that component: See "Adjusting the Input Level" on page 15 of this manual. I can't hear sound from some of my laser discs Check that the disc contains a digital soundtrack (the disc's cover will bear a "digital sound" logo). Some older laser discs contain only analog soundtracks. If the disc does not have a digital soundtrack, change the input type to Analog. See "Switching Input Modes" on page 23 of this manual and also read the manual of your laser disc player. There wasn't any sound recorded on tapes made on my VCR or tape deck Check that: • The audio cables are connected properly for the component. • The source is connected via an analog jack set . See Chapter One of the Connections and Setup Guide. • Analog has been set as the input mode. Digital inputs such as Dolby Digital, DTS or MPEG need to be downmixed into two channels for recording to analog media (such as VHS or audio tape). See "Digital to Analog Recording" on page 48. The initial sound is intermittent or non-existent when I start to play from a Dolby Digital, DTS, DTS-ES or MPEG source • Some DVD players simply have intermittent start-up sound. • Check that the correct digital cable is being used. The cable must be a digital coaxial or optical cable. See Chapter One of the Connections and Setup Guide. 73 Troubleshooting

Troubleshooting
Sound
A Dolby Digital Surround EX-encoded source is played with THX
Surround EX set to
Auto
, but the source is not reproduced in 6.1-
channel audio.
Some encoded sources (discs) do not contain the recording of the
encoding identification signal. To reproduce such sources in 6.1-chan-
nel audio, set THX Surround EX to ON. See
To set the THX Mode
on page 24 of this manual.
Sound from one (or more) of my components is abnormally loud
or soft
Adjust the analog input level for that component: See
Adjusting the In-
put Level
on page 15 of this manual.
I can
t hear sound from some of my laser discs
Check that the disc contains a digital soundtrack (the disc
s cover will
bear a
digital sound
logo). Some older laser discs contain only analog
soundtracks. If the disc does not have a digital soundtrack, change the
input type to Analog. See
Switching Input Modes
on page 23 of this
manual and also read the manual of your laser disc player.
There wasn
t any sound recorded on tapes made on
my VCR or
tape deck
Check that:
The audio cables are connected properly for the component.
The source is connected via an analog jack set . See Chapter One of
the
Connections and Setup
Guide
.
Analog has been set as the input mode. Digital inputs such as Dolby
Digital, DTS or MPEG need to be downmixed into two channels for
recording to analog media (such as VHS or audio tape). See
Digital
to Analog Recording
on page 48.
The initial sound is intermittent or non-existent when I start to
play from a Dolby Digital, DTS, DTS-ES or MPEG source
Some DVD players simply have intermittent start-up sound.
Check that the correct digital cable is being used. The cable must be a
digital
coaxial or optical cable. See Chapter One of the
Connections
and Setup Guide
.
