To prevent noise, you need to make digital connections (Refer to pages 20, 21) and set SIGNAL SELECT to "DIGITAL". 25 memo When playing LD recorded in Dolby Digital When connecting a DVD/LD player or LD player using the AC-3 RF output, a commercially available RF demodulator (RFD-1) is required. The RF demodulator changes the RF signal to a digital signal which is then processed by the receiver at the digital input jacks. For more details, refer to the instruction manual supplied with the RFD-1. Refer to pages 52, 53 for explanations of Dolby Digital, Dolby Pro Logic, and DTS. 30
