I L.F.E
The letters "L.F.E" light up when the disc being played
contains the LEE (Low Frequency Effect) channel.
When the sound of the LFE channel signal is actually
being reproduced, the bars underneath the letters
lights up to indicate the level. Since the LFE signal is
hot recorded in all parts of the input signal the bar
indication will fluctuate (and may turn off) during
playback.
DTS
Lights up when DTS signals are input.
Notes
• When playing a DTS format disc, bo sure that you have
made digital connections and that INPUT MODE is NOT
set to ANALOG (see on page 23).
• You may hear some noise when starting playback from a
DTS format LD or CD. This, however, is not a malfunction.
AC-3
Lights when Dolby Digital (AC-3) signals are input.
