Refer to these pages for more on acoustic calibration equalization. The default AUTO setting is usually sufficient, letting the receiver decide the most suitable signal type. However, in other cases (for example, if you want to record the analog output of a digital source) then you should set the input signal type to analog. • While listening to a source, press ACOUSTIC EQ. Press repeatedly to select between: • ALL CH ADJUST - No special weighting is given to any one channel. • FRONT ALIGN - All speakers are heard in accordance with the front speaker settings. • CUSTOM 1/2 - Custom settings • OFF - Switches Acoustic Calibration EQ off.

Note • You can't use Acoustic Calibration EQ when MULTI CH IN is switched on. • If you switch on Acoustic Calibration EQ when DIRECT is selected, the receiver automatically switches to STEREO. Selecting the input signal type Most of the audio inputs have both analog and digital jacks. You can select the type of signal to be used in each case. The input signal type for the current input is indicated in the display. With digital signals, the signal type (Dolby Digital or DTS) also shows in the display. 1 Press RECEIVER. 2 Press SIGNAL SEL to select the type of input signal for the current source. Press repeatedly to choose between: • AUTO - The receiver selects the first available signal in the following order: DIGITAL; ANALOG. • ANALOG - Selects an analog signal. • DIGITAL - Selects an optical or coaxial digital signal. Note • If no digital inputs are assigned for the current source, the input signal type is fixed to ANALOG. • When using DIGITAL IN terminals the following digital signal formats are supported: Dolby Digital, DTS and PCM (32, 44.1, 48, 88.2 and 96 kHz sampling frequencies). • Some DVD players don't output DTS signals. For more details, refer to the instruction manual supplied with your DVD player. • The audio signal from karaoke microphones and some LDs is not output from the digital outputs. Select ANALOG to listen to these formats. • If you want to play DTS-encoded sources, you need to have digital connections. If ANALOG is selected, you'll hear digital noise through your speakers. 41 En
