Basic Operations

—Continued

The multichannel DVD input is for connecting a compo-
nent with a 5.1-channel analog audio output, such as a
DVD-Audio or SACD-capable DVD player, or an
MPEG decoder. See page 26 for hookup information.

Note:
While the multichannel DVD input is selected, the
Speaker Configuration settings on page 42 are ignored,
and signals from the multichannel input are fed to the
speakers as they are.

You can adjust the bass and treble for the front speakers,
except when the Direct or Pure Audio (not North Amer-
ican models) listening mode is selected.

Bass

You can boost or cut low-frequency sounds output by the
front speakers from –10 dB to +10 dB in 2 dB steps.

Treble

You can boost or cut high-frequency sounds output by
the front speakers from –10 dB to +10 dB in 2 dB steps.

You can display various information about the current
input source as follows.

Note:
This procedure can also be performed on the AV receiver
by using its [DISPLAY] button.

The following information can typically be displayed for
input sources.

* If the input signal is analog, no format information is

displayed. If the input signal is PCM, the sampling fre-
quency is displayed. If the input signal is digital but not
PCM, the signal format is displayed. Information is
displayed for about three seconds, then the previously
displayed information reappears.
