10 English DIGITAL IN DIGITAL 1 (DVD) DIGITAL 2 (CD) DIGITAL 3 (TV) Digital Connections By connecting the receiver and the source component through the digital terminals, sound reproduction quality will be much improved. In addition, you can enjoy multi-channel reproduction and some other convenient functions. IMPORTANT: -When connecting a video component using the digital terminals, you also need to connect it to the video jacks on the rear. Without connecting it to the video jacks, you can view no playback picture. -After connecting the components using the DIGITAL IN terminals, set the following correctly if necessary. –Set the digital input (DIGITAL IN) terminal setting correctly. For details, see Setting the Digital Input Terminals on page 22. –Select the digital input mode correctly. For details, see Selecting the Analog or Digital Input Mode on page 13. Notes: -When shipped from the factory, the DIGITAL IN terminals have been set for use with the following components: –DIGITAL 1 (coaxial): For DVD player –DIGITAL 2 (optical): For CD player Only for RX-6040B/RX-6042S: –DIGITAL 3 (optical): For digital TV broadcast tuner -When you want to operate the CD player or CD recorder using the COMPU LINK remote control system (see page 30), connect it also as described in Analog Connections (see page 7). -When you want to operate a DVD player or TV using the AV COMPU LINK remote control system (see page 31), connect it also as described in Analog Connections (see pages 8 and 9). Connecting the Power Cord Before plugging the receiver into an AC outlet, make sure that all connections have been made. Plug the power cord into an AC outlet. Keep the power cord away from the connecting cables and the antenna. The power cord may cause noise or screen interference. Note: The preset settings such as preset channels and sound adjustment may be erased in a few days in the following cases: –When you unplug the power cord. –When a power failure occurs. CAUTIONS: -Do not touch the power cord with wet hands. -Do not pull on the power cord to unplug the cord. When unplugging the cord, always grasp the plug so as not to damage the cord. Digital input terminals You can connect any digital components having coaxial or optical digital output terminal. Digital coaxial cable (not supplied) between digital coaxial terminals Digital optical cable (not supplied) between digital optical terminals Before connecting a digital optical cable, unplug the protective plug. When the component has a digital optical output terminal, connect it to the DIGITAL 2 (CD)-or DIGITAL 3 (TV) for RX-6040B/RX-6042S-terminal, using a digital optical cable (not supplied).When the component has a digital coaxial output terminal, connect it to the DIGITAL 1 (DVD) terminal, using a digital coaxial cable (not supplied).

26 English DTS* 2 DTS is another digital signal compression method, developed by Digital Theater Systems, Inc., and enables multi-channel encoding and decoding (1ch up to 6.1ch). - When DTS signal is detected through the digital input, the indicator lights up on the display. DTS Digital Surround DTS Digital Surround (DTS SURROUND) is another discrete 5.1-channel digital audio format available on CD, LD, and DVD software. Compared to Dolby Digital, the DTS Digital Surround format has a lower audio compression rate which enables it to add breadth and depth to the sounds reproduced. As such, DTS Digital Surround features natural, solid, and clear sound. Another multi-channel digital encoding format introduced by Digital Theater Systems, Inc. is DTS Extended Surround (DTS-ES). It greatly improves the 360-degree surround impression and space expression by adding the third surround channel-surround back channel. DTS-ES includes two signal formats with different surround signal recording methods-DTS-ES Discrete 6.1ch and DTS-ES Matrix 6.1ch. - You can use Virtual Surround Back (see page 22) when playing back DTS-ES software. This function creates the great surround effect from the behind as if you have connected the surround back speakers. DTS 96/24 In recent years, there has been increasing interest in higher sampling rates both for recording and for reproducing at home. Higher sampling rates allow wider frequency range and greater bit depths provide extended dynamic range. DTS 96/24 is a multi-channel digital signal format (fs 96 kHz/24 bits) introduced by Digital Theater Systems, Inc. to deliver better- than-CD sound quality into the home. - When DTS 96/24 signal is detected, the indicator lights up. You can enjoy its 5.1-channel sound with full-quality.What is Linear PCM? Uncompressed digital audio data used for DVDs, CDs and Video CDs. DVDs support 2 channels with sampling rates of 48/96 kHz, at quantization of 16/20/24 bits. On the other hand, CDs and Video CDs are limited to 2 channels with 44.1 kHz at 16 bits. - When Linear PCM signal is detected, the indicator lights up. What is Dual Mono? Dual Mono can be easily understood when you think of the bilingual broadcast or the MTS (Multichannel Television Sound) format used for TV programs (however, the Dual Mono format is not identical with those analog formats). This format is now adopted in Dolby Digital, DTS, and so on. It allows two independent channels (called main channel and sub- channel) to be recorded separately. - When Dual Mono signal is detected, the indicator lights up. You can select either channel you want to listen to (see page 21). When using the Surround mode, the sounds come out of the activated speakers which the Surround mode requires. - If either the surround speakers or center speaker is set to NONE in the speaker setting, the corresponding channel signals are allocated to and emitted through the front speakers. - If both the surround speakers and center speaker are set to NONE in the speaker setting, JVCs original 3D-PHONIC processing (which has been developed to create the surround effect through the front speakers only) is used. The 3D-PHONIC indicator lights up on the display. 3D Headphone Mode-3D H PHONE If you activate Surround when the front speakers are deactivated, 3D Headphone Mode is activated without respect to the type of software played back. 3D H PHONE appears on the display and the DSP and H.PHONE indicators also light up. *2DTS and DTS 96/24 are trademarks of Digital Theater Systems, Inc.
