Listening to your system

Selecting MCACC presets

• Default setting: MEMORY 1

If you have calibrated your system for different listening

positions, you can switch between settings to suit the

kind of source you’re listening to and where you’re sitting

(for example, watching movies from a sofa, or playing a

video game close to the TV).

• While listening to a source, press , then

press

MCACC

Press repeatedly to select one of the six MCACC presets

See Data Management on page 80 to check and manage

your current settings.

Choosing the input signal

On this receiver, it is possible to switch the input signals

for the different inputs as described below.

• Press , then press

SIGNAL SEL

to select

the input signal corresponding to the source

component.

Each press cycles through the options as follows:

• AUTO – The receiver selects the first available signal

in the following order: HDMI; DIGITAL; ANALOG.

• ANALOG – Selects an analog signal.

• DIGITAL – Selects an optical or coaxial digital signal.

• HDMI – Selects an HDMI signal.

• PCM – For PCM input signals.

The receiver selects

the first available signal in the following order: HDMI;

DIGITAL.

When set to DIGITAL, HDMI or AUTO (only selected

DIGITAL or HDMI), the indicators light according to the

signal being decoded (see Display on page 13).

Better sound using Phase Control

This receiver’s Phase Control feature uses phase

correction measures to make sure your sound source

arrives at the listening position in phase, preventing

unwanted distor tion and/or coloring of the sound.

Phase Control technology provides coherent sound

reproduction through the use of phase matching

for an

optimal sound image. The default setting is on and we

recommend leaving Phase Control switched on for all

sound sources.

• Press , then press

PHASE CTRL

(

PHASE

CONTROL

) to switch on phase correction.

The PHASE CONTROL indicator on the front panel lights.

Note

1 • These settings have no effect when headp hones are connected.

• You can also press / to select the MCACC preset.

2 • This receiver can only play back Dolby Digital, PCM (32 kHz to 192 kHz), DTS (including DTS 96/24) and WMA9 Pro digital signal formats.

The compatible signals via the HDMI terminals are: Dolby Digital, DTS, WMA9 Pro, PCM (32 kHz to 192 kHz), Dolby TrueHD, Dolby Digital Plus,

DTS-EXPRESS, DTS-HD Master Audio and SACD.

• You may get digital noise when an LD, CD, DVD or BD player compatible with DTS is playing an analog signal. To prevent noise, make the

proper digital connections (page 28) and set the signal input to DIGITAL.

• Some DVD players don’t output DTS signals. For more details, refer to the instruction manual supplied with your DVD player.

3 When the HDMI audio output parameter is set to THROUGH, the sound will be heard through your T

V, not from this receiver.

4 • This is useful if you find there is a slight delay before AUTO recognizes the PCM signal on a CD, for instance.

• When PCM is selected, noise may be output during playback of non-PCM sources. Please select another input signal if this is a problem.

5 • Phase matching is a very important factor in achieving proper sound reproduction. If two waveforms are ‘in phase’, they crest and trough

together, resulting in increased amplitude, clarity and presence of the sound signal. If a crest of a wave meets a trough, then the sound will

be ‘out of phase’ and an unreliable sound image will be produced.

• The PHASE CONTROL feature is available even when the headphones are plugged in.

• If your subwoofer has a phase control switch, set it to the plus (+) sign (or 0°). However, the effect you can actually feel when

PHASE CONTROL is set to ON on this receiver depends on the type of your subwoofer. Set your subwoofer to maximize the effect. It is also

recommended you try

changing the orientation or the place of your subwoofer.

• Set the built-in lowpass filter switch of your subwoofer to off. If this cannot be done on your subwoofer, set the cutoff frequency to a higher

value.

• If the speaker distance is not properly set, you may not have a maximized PHASE CONTROL effect.

• The PHASE CONTROL mode cannot be set to ON in the following cases:

– When the PURE DIRECT mode is switched on.

– When the HDMI audio output parameter is set to THROUGH in Setting the Audio options on page 59.
