Important notes for users in the U.K.

Mains plug This apparatus is fitted with an approved 13 Amp plug. To change a fuse in this type of plug proceed as follows:

1 Remove fuse cover and fuse. 2 Fix new fuse which should be a BS1362 5 Amp, A.S.T.A. or

BSI approved type. 3 Refit the fuse cover.

If the fitted plug is not suitable for your socket outlets, it should be cut off and an appropriate plug fitted in its place. If the mains plug contains a fuse, this should have a value of 5 Amp. If a plug without a fuse is used, the fuse at the distribution board should not be greater than 5 Amp.

Note: The severed plug must be disposed of to avoid a possible shock hazard if it is inserted into a 13 Amp socket elsewhere.

How to connect a plug The wires in the mains lead are coloured with the following code: blue = neutral (N), brown = live (L). As these colours may not correspond with the colour markings identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed as follows: Connect the blue wire to the terminal marked N or coloured

black. Connect the brown wire to the terminal marked L or

coloured red. Do not connect either wire to the earth terminal in the plug,

marked E (or e ) or coloured green (or green and yellow). Before replacing the plug cover, make certain that the cord grip is clamped over the sheath of the lead - not simply over the two wires.

4.6 Connecting digital HDMI equipment

HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) provides the highest quality high-definition video and multichannel audio. HDMI can carry both uncompressed high-definition video and multichannel audio in all HD formats.Therefore just one single cable is needed for connecting your DFR9000 to HDMI-enabled equipment.Your DFR9000 has one HDMI output for connecting to an HDTV and two HDMI inputs for connecting to an HDMI-enabled SACD player and another HDMI source device. For HDMI connection an optional HDMI connection cable is required.

Notes: HDMI connection can only be made to HDMI-equipped components with HDCP (High

Bandwidth Digital Content Protection). If you wish to connect to a DVI connector (equipped with HDCP), you will need a separate adapter (DVI to HDMI) to do so. A DVI (with HDCP) connection, however, does not support audio signals. Consult your local audio dealer for more information.

If you are using an HDMI source device with HDCP as input to your DFR9000, the output device (e.g. a TV) also has to be connected via HDMI (with HDCP).

No high definition audio data (SACD, DVD-Audio) via HDMI is supported!

Make sure the receiver is switched off and unplugged from the wall outlet before making any connections.

Make sure a multichannel connection has been made. See 4.5 Connecting analogue multichannel equipment.

4.8 Connecting speakers We will describe connection of a complete setup of seven speakers (including subwoofer and surround back speaker), but everyones home setup will vary. Simply connect the speakers you have as described below.The receiver will work with just two stereo speakers (the front speakers in the illustration) but a complete setup is best for surround sound. As a minimum we recommend five speakers (two front speakers, a centre speaker and two surround speakers) for good surround sound. It is possible to reproduce some kind of surround sound with fewer speakers.This is done by redirecting the signals which are intended for the missing speakers to the existing ones. See '6.4 Setting the speaker size and distance', '6,5 Setting the speaker volume' '10.2 Balance menu' and '10.3 Speakers menu' on how to set up the receiver correctly for the number and size of the speakers used.

Notes: Always switch off your receiver before making any connections. Speakers with a nominal impedance of 4 and 8 can be connected, but speakers with a

nominal impedance of 4 give the best performance.

General 1 Twist exposed wire strands together. 2 Loosen speaker terminal and insert exposed wire. 3 Make sure you connect the speaker on the right to the right terminal and the speaker

on the left to the left terminal.Also make sure the + and - cables are connected to the correct speaker terminals (+ to + and - to -).

4 Tighten terminal.

Connect the left Surround speaker to the S(urround) L(eft) terminals (17) and the right Surround speaker to the S(urround) R(ight) terminals (17).

Connect the centre speaker to the C terminal (17).

If you wish to connect an active subwoofer: Connect the active subwoofer to the SUB OUT terminal (26). The Surround back speaker can be connected to the 6.1 S(urround) B(ack)/5.1 SUB

terminals (17).

For a 5.1 (or less) speaker configuration / if you wish to connect a passive subwoofer: Connect the passive subwoofer to the 6.1 S(urround) B(ack)/5.1 SUB terminals (17).

4.9 Positioning the speakers Speaker positioning in a multichannel home theatre system can noticeably improve the quality of sound reproduced. Speakers are usually designed to perform best at a particular position. This could be on the floor, on stands, near the wall or away from walls. Below you will find a few tips on getting the best sound from your speakers, but you should also follow the instructions on positioning in the Instructions for use, supplied with your speakers to get the most out of them.

General hints for positioning If possible, use the same model or brand of speakers for all front speakers.This creates a

seamless front soundstage and eliminates the possibility of distracting sonic disturbances that occur when a sound moves across mismatched front-channel speakers.

Avoid positioning the speakers in a corner, as this will boost the bass tones too much. Placing the speakers behind curtains, furniture etc. will reduce the treble response, thus

reducing the stereo effect considerably.The listener should still be able to 'see' the speakers.

Each room has different acoustic characteristics and the positioning possibilities are often limited.You can find the best position for your speakers by experimenting. In general, the speakers should be arranged as symmetrically as possible in the room.

Positioning the front speakers Place the front left and right speakers at equal distances from the TV. The front speakers should be arranged so that, viewed from the listeners position, the

speaker connected to the 'L' terminals of the receiver is on the left and the speaker connected to the 'R' terminals is on the right of the listener.This can be checked with the balance control in the system menu.

The best stereo effect is obtained when the two front speakers and the listener form an equilateral triangle.

The best height for the front speakers is when the high tone speakers (tweeters) are at ear height (while seated).

To avoid magnetic interference with the picture on your TV, do not position the front speakers too close to the TV.

Positioning the centre speaker The centre speaker should be placed centrally between the front speakers, e.g. underneath

or on top of the TV. The best height for the centre speaker is at the height of your ears (while seated).

Positioning the surround speakers The surround speaker connected to the 'SL' terminals of the receiver should be on the left

and the speaker connected to the 'SR' terminals on the right of the listener.This can be checked with the balance control in the system menu.

If possible, place the surround speakers slightly above ear level. The left and right surround speakers should face each other and be in line with the listener

or behind him. Place the surround back speaker right behind the listener at the same distance and height

as the surround left and right speakers. Try not to place the surround speakers further away from the listening position than the

front and centre speakers. Doing so can weaken the surround sound effect.

Positioning the subwoofer A subwoofer can be used to enhance the bass performance of your system. If possible, place the subwoofer to the left or right of the centre speaker as seen from the

front of the centre speaker. Bass level can be increased by placing the subwoofer closer to a corner.

4.10 Connecting antennas

Caution! Always make sure the receiver is switched off and unplugged from the wall outlet before making or changing any connections.

FM antenna For best reception connect the FM connector (18) to the community or cable antenna

system or to a roof-mounted FM antenna with an impedance of 75 OHM (). If none of these is available, you may use the wire antenna supplied for nearby stations

(reception could be poor). Vary the position and direction of the antenna until you find the strongest FM reception

and then secure the antenna in that position.

DAB antenna Connect the DAB antenna supplied to the DAB connector (18) of your DFR9000.

Hang up the antenna in a T-shape, turned 90 to the side, preferably close to a window. Do not attach the antenna to a metal surface. Vary the position and direction of the antenna until you find the strongest reception and

then secure the antenna in that position.

AM antenna Connect the wires of the AM antenna supplied to the AM antenna connector (18). Make sure that the antenna terminals close on the bare wire of the antenna and not on

the plastic insulation. Turn the antenna for optimum reception.

Tips: When you have connected a passive subwoofer to the 6.1SB/5.1SUB sockets (17) in a 5.1

configuration, 'SB size' must be set to 'Subwoofer'. Whenever a subwoofer is connected, 'SUB' must be set to 'YES' or 'Always'. For speakers that are not connected, select 'None'. The centre speaker is normally placed directly in the front of the listening room and closer

to the listening position than the front speakers.This means that sound from the centre speaker will be heard before sound from the front speakers.To prevent this, set the centre speaker distance ('C distance') a little further than it actually is. In this way sound from the front and centre speakers will be heard at the same time.

9. Surround modes

Dolby Digital Dolby Digital is an encoding, transmission and decoding standard for stereo up to 5.1 channels of digital audio. It is available only with digital input sources encoded with Dolby Digital data. It provides up to five separate main audio channels and a special dedicated low-frequency effects channel and delivers high-quality multichannel audio without compromising video performance. Dolby Digital is the world wide audio standard for DVD-Video.

Dolby Digital EX Available when the receiver is configured for 6.1 channel operation. Dolby Digital EX introduces a centre rear channel to the 5.1 playback format.This additional channel provides increased spatiality and realism for audio effects that pan from front to back, as well as enhanced localization of surround channels that originate from directly behind the listener. When used with movies or other programs that have special encoding, Dolby Digital EX reproduces specially encoded soundtracks so that a full 6.1 soundfield is available.When the receiver is set for 6.1 operation and a Dolby Digital signal is present, the EX mode is automatically selected.

Dolby Pro Logic II x Processes stereo movie and music content into six independent playback channels of full bandwith surround sound. Dolby Pro Logic II x Movie is optimized for movie soundtracks, especially those recorded in Dolby Surround.The channel separation and movement of surround effects is comparable to Dolby Digital EX. Dolby Pro Logic II x Music is optimized for music.The surround effect is more enveloping than Pro Logic II Movie.

DTS DTS Digital Surround is a 5.1-channel surround sound format, similar to Dolby Digital. DTS (Digital Theater System) features up to five discrete (independent) channels (front centre, front left, front right, surround left, surround right) of full frequency sound plus a sixth channel for low frequency effects (LFE).The LFE signal is usually reserved for the subwoofer or speakers capable of reproducing low frequency ranges.

DTS ES DTS Extended Surround is a 6.1-channel surround sound format that extends the 5.1-channel surround sound format with one additional speaker located in the back of the listener (i.e., back surround channel). DTS ES comes in two versions: DTS Extended Surround Matrix and DTS Extended Surround Discrete 6.1.

DTS 96/24 DTS 96/24 offers high-quality 5.1-channel sound playback on DVD-Video and is fully backward- compatible with all DTS decoders. '96' refers to a 96kHz sampling rate (compared to typical 48kHz sampling rate.) '24' refers to 24-bit word length.

DTS Neo:6 DTS Neo:6 provides up to six channels of matrix decoding from stereo matrix material. Neo:6 Cinema is suitable for movies. Neo:6 Cinema delivers good channel separation for movie soundtracks. Neo:6 Music is suitable for music. It plays the stereo source more through the front left/right speakers, and generates a natural, ambient surround and centre sound.

12. Glossary

AM Amplitude Modulation. A method of radio transmission, by which the information part of the signal causes the amplitude to vary without affecting the frequency.

Amplifier An electronic device that takes in an original signal, gives it more power and provides it as an output.

Analogue A continuously varying action, or movement that takes time to change from one position to another. Standard audio and video signals are analogue. An analogue signal has an infinite number of levels between its highest and lowest value. (Not like digital, where changes are by steps.)

A/V input Allows input of Audio/Video signals.

Balance Adjusts the relative volume levels of left and right channels for optimal stereo effect. Compensates for channel imbalance and non-symmetrical loudspeaker positioning

Bandwidth A frequency range, or 'band' of frequencies between the limits defined by the 'half power points', where the signal loss is -3dB. In audio and video, it is this band of frequencies that can pass through a device without significant loss or distortion.The wider the bandwidth, the better the quality that results, such as a sharper picture, better sound, etc.The higher the bandwidth number the better the performance (300 MHz is better than 250 MHz.).When a signal passes through a path with more than one device (including cables) the limiting factor (bottleneck) in that path is the device with the narrowest bandwidth.

Bass The lower range of audio frequencies, up to approximately 500 Hz.

Black level More commonly referred to as 'brightness', the black level is the level of light produced on a video screen.

Copy protection Copy protection is a technical protection measure designed to prevent duplication of copyrighted works.

CVBS CVBS stands for 'Composite video, blanking, and sync'. A standard video signal as output by VCRs and satellite receivers. CVBS combines the colour, luminance and synchronization information in one signal.The audio signal is transferred separately.

DAB Digital Audio Broadcast. DAB is a terrestrial digital broadcasting standard which is recognized by the IUT (International Union for Telecommunications).The use of proper DAB frequencies (Band III and L-Band) allows a good quality transmission. DAB programs are broadcast inside a multiplex which is composed of six to ten radio stations on a single frequency. DAB can carry not only audio but also PAD (Program Associated Data) or NPAD (Non Program Associated Data) such as text, pictures, data and even videos: it is then called DMB (Digital Multimedia Broadcasting).

dB Decibel.The minimum change in sound intensity that a human ear can distinguish. A doubling of volume is a 10 dB increase.To double volume in a stereo system, a 10-fold increase in power output (WATTS) is required.

DCDi DCDi by Faroudja. stands for Directional Correlation Deinterlacing and is a package of picture innovations that digitally adjusts and optimizes picture quality to optimal contrast, colour and sharpness level.

Digital A system of data or image values in the form of discrete, non-continuous codes, such as binary. When data is in a digital format, it can be processed, stored (recorded) and reproduced easily while maintaining its original integrity.

DLS Dynamic Label Service. Radio text information, provided by DAB radio stations.

Dolby Surround Sound Dolby Stereo is the name given to the four-channel surround sound developed by Dolby Laboratories and introduced into movie theaters in the 70s. It employed a matrix encoding scheme called Dolby Surround which recorded four channels of information on two channels. The two channels are decoded into L, R, Center and Surround upon playback.The centre channel is recorded identically on the left and right channels. Also see '9. Surround modes'.

DTS Digital Surround DTS: abbreviation for Digital Theater System. Like Dolby Digital, DTS is another 5.1-channel surround sound format that is available in movie theaters, and as an optional soundtrack on some DVD-Video movies for home theatre viewing. DTS is not a standard soundtrack format for DVD-Video, and is not used by HDTV or digital satellite broadcasting. Also see '9. Surround modes'.

44 ENGLISH

DVD Digital Versatile Disc. An optical disc about the size of a CD-ROM, but capable of storing an entire movie.The technology uses MPEG-2 compression.Typical capacity for these discs is 4.5 GB, or about 133 minutes of digital video. Originally called 'Digital Video Disk'.

DVI DVI (Digital Video Interface) is a new form of video interface technology made to maximize the quality of flat panel LCD monitors and high-end video graphics cards. DVI is also a digital transfer method for HDTV, EDTV, Plasma Display, and other ultra-high-end video displays for TV, movies, and DVDs.

FM Frequency Modulation. A method of combining an information signal with a carrier signal so that it may be transmitted. FM radio is frequency modulated. Audio is encoded on the carrier by varying the frequency in response to the audio.

Frequency The number of complete cycles per second of a musical tone or electronic signal, expressed in Hertz (Hz).

Frequency response The frequency range in which an electronic component can accurately reproduce its input. Humans can hear from 20 Hz to 20,000Hz (20kHz). An ideal component would have a Frequency Response, totally flat or without any deviation, from 20Hz to 20 kHz. Frequency Response specifications are measured in dB based on how closely a components response resembles that of the ideal.

Gain A general term for an increase in signal power or voltage produced by an amplifier.

HDCP Your DFR9000 supports High bandwith Digital Content Protection (HDCP), owned by Intel.

HDMI High Definition Multimedia Interface. A specification developed by the HDMI Working Group that combines multi-channel audio and high definition video and that controls signals into a single digital interface for use with DVD players, digital television, and other audiovisual devices.

HDTV High Definition Television. HDTV refers to a complete product/system with the following minimum performance attributes: a receiver that receives ATSC terrestrial digital transmissions and decodes all ATSC Table 3 video formats; a display scanning format with active vertical scanning lines of 720 progressive (720p), 1080 interlaced (1080i), or higher; aspect ratio capabilities for displaying a 16:9 image; receives and reproduces, and/or outputs Dolby Digital audio.

Hertz (Hz) The basic unit of frequency. One hertz equals one cycle per second.

Image A reproduction or imitation of a person or thing displayed by any type of visual media.

Interlacing A video frame is made up of two fields. Interlacing is the process of scanning the picture onto a video screen whereby the lines of one scanned field fall evenly between the lines of the preceding field.

LED Light emitting diode. A low-power, long life, light source, usually red, green or yellow in color. Some LEDs can produce two different colors.

Level The relative intensity of an audio or video source.

LFE Low Frequency Effects channel. A special channel of 5 to 120Hz of information intended for special effects such as explosions in movies.The LFE channel has an additional 10 dB headroom in order to accomodate the required level.

Line out Audio output, typically in level range of 1-2 Volts.This may be 10,000 -50,000 ohms, at -10dB or -20dB.

L/R Audio This abbreviation stands for Left and Right audio.

Macrovision Macrovision provides licensing and copy protection solutions for the video, music, software and hardware industries.

Modulation The process of adding an information signal to a carrier frequency to allow it to be transmitted.Thus, the carrier is 'modulated' by the information signal, as in a modem.

Multichannel DVDs are formatted to have each sound track constitute one sound field. Multichannel refers to a structure of sound tracks having three or more channels.

ENGLISH 45

NSV Noise Shaped Video. NSV is a new video format. It is designed to be easily streamed, support any audio and video codec, and be usable on nearly any platform. Currently NSV utilizes MP3 for audio and VP3 for video.

NTSC National Television Standards Committee.The television standard for North America and parts of South America having 525 lines/60 Hz (60 Hz refresh), two fields per frame and 30 frames per second.Technically, NTSC is a color modulation scheme.To fully specify the color video signal it should be referred to as (M) NTSC. NTSC is also commonly (though incorrectly) used to refer to any 525/59.94 video system. See (M)NTSC.

Ohm The unit of electrical resistance, transmitting a current of 1 amp when subjected to a potential difference of 1 volt.

PCM Pulse Code Modulation is a digital scheme for transmitting analogue data. PCM makes it possible to digitize all forms of analogue data, including full-motion video, voices and music.

Phase The relative timing of one signal to another, usually expressed in degrees of shift.

Radio frequency (RF) A range of frequencies used for electromagnetic transmission (e.g. radio and TV).

RDS Radio Data System is a service that allows FM stations to send additional information. If you are receiving an RDS station, RDS and the station name are displayed.

RGBS The red, blue, and green chroma information in a video signal, with a separate channel for the sync signal.

Satellite receiver A receiver designed for satellite reception system, which receives modulated signals from an LNA (Low Noise Amplifier. ) or LNB (Low Noise Block Downconverter.) and converts them into their original form suitable for direct presentation to the user.

Saturation The intensity of the color, or the extent to which a given color in any image is free from white. The less white in a color, the truer the color, or the greater its saturation.

Surround Sound A system of audio reproduction that uses four or more speakers to simulate the full three- dimensional effect of a live musical performance or cinematic environment. (See also 'Dolby Pro-Logic Surround Sound').

S-video A composite video signal separated into the luma ('Y' is for luma, or black and white information; brightness) and the chroma ('C' is an abbreviation for chroma, or color information).

Sync Synchronization. In video, sync is a means of controlling when things happen with respect to other things.This is accomplished with timing pulses to insure that each step in a process occurs at exactly the right time. For example, horizontal sync determines exactly when to begin each horizontal line (sweep) of the electron beam.Vertical sync determines when to bring the electron beam to the top left of the screen to start a new field.There are many other types of sync in a video system. .Also called 'sync signal' or 'sync pulse'.

Test Tone Dolby Pro-Logic Surround Sound receivers offer this feature to allow individual adjustment of allchannels according to your listening (viewing) location and individual preference.To set the balance, a test tone is sent to each channel in a repeating cycle.

Toggle To switch between alternate states. For example: between on and off.

Tuner Radio receiver.

UCD User Centered Design. A method for designing ease-of-use into the total user experience with products.

VCR Generally defined as video cassette recorder.
