Basic Playback
OPERATION
Playing Sources with Dolby Digital, DTS or MPEG Audio
This page covers using your receiver with Dolby Digital, DTS or MPEG audio encoded sources.
1 For the VSX-859RDS set the slide switch on
the remote control to USE.
2 Turn on the RECEIVER.
3 Press the MULTI CONTROL buttons or the
FUNCTION button (or turn the MULTI JOG
dial) to select the source you want to
playback.
The FUNCTION button cycles through the sources in the
following order:
4 Choose a sound mode by pressing THX,
ADVANCED THEATER or STANDARD.
The default setting is STEREO.
(For more see “Sound Modes” and "Selecting a Sound Mode"
on pages 44 – 48.)
5 For the VSX-839RDS press RECEIVER.
This sets the remote to receiver control mode.
6 Press the SIGNAL SELECT button to select
the input signal. Set to AUTO.
(See “Switching Analog and Digital Signal Input” on page 51.)
7 Start playback of the component you
selected in step 3.
8 Adjust the volume by using the volume
buttons on the remote control or the
MASTER VOLUME on the front panel.
We recommend using different modes for different types of
DTS material. For watching movies, the THX or ADVANCED
THEATER setting should provide the best results. For listening
to music, the STANDARD, DIRECT, STEREO, or DSP modes
should serve the listener best.
Make sure you connect your DVD/LD or LD player with the RF
demodulator. If your player has an
2 RF output this will
ensure you can use all LDs. Refer to p. 14.
Some DVD players don’t output DTS signals. For more details,
refer to the instruction manual supplied with your DVD player.
If you are not able to get sound from the receiver the problem
may well lie with the SIGNAL SELECT button. You need to
make sure the input is set to the appropriate ANALOG or
DIGITAL setting. Refer to p. 51 for more on this.
