Special features
True home theater sound
Multi channel mode (SRS Circle Surround II
This receiver incorporates a wide variety of surround modes to bring you
maximum enjoyment from your video software. Select a surround mode
according to your equipment or the software you are going to play and
enjoy!
ª
SRS Circle Surround II ™ improves on its predecessor CS-5.1™ resulting in the CS-6.1™ system, enabling you to listen to realistic, multichannel, surround sound playback from a stereo source or conventional
surround-encoded video source. You already enjoy listening to Dolby
digital sound/DTS multi-channel sound with your multi-speakers. Now
you can listen to audio CDs, MDs, Broadcast and Home Theater using
your multi-speakers. You will discover a new type of sound through
SRS Circle Surround II .
Dolby Digital
The DOLBY DIGITAL mode lets you enjoy full digital surround from
software processed in the Dolby Digital format. Dolby Digital provides
up to 5.1 channels of independent digital audio for better sound quality
and more powerful presence than conventional Dolby Surround.
Dolby PRO LOGIC II
DOLBY PRO LOGIC II, whilst totally compatible with its predecessor
PRO LOGIC, provides greater advantages in surround sound. It allows
the user to enjoy the conventional stereo or Dolby Surround with a
convincing “5.1 like” presentation. PRO LOGIC II offers special features for controlling the overall spatial, dimensionality and frontal sound
field imaging. PRO LOGIC II produces an impressive surround sound
and three-dimensional
from video software marked
space from music CD. When listening to music, you will be able to enjoy
the experience of sheer STEREO surround sound.
DTS-ES
The DTS-ES (Digital Theater System-Extended Surround) represents
6.1-channel Discrete Surround format, expanding upon 5.1 surround.
DTS-ES format is a 6.1 channel sound system for movie theatres that
includes as addtional surround-center channel matrixed within surround-left and surround-right. It’s compatible on predecessor DTS 5.1
system. The extra channel allows more accurate placement and steering of sound accross the rear soundstage.The DTS-ES receiver will be
required, to experience a discrete 6.1-channel mix.
In the DTS-ES mode, the 5.1 or 6.1 channel digital input from a DTS CD,
LD or DVD disc (carrying the “DTS” or “DTS-ES” marking) can be
played in Digital Surround.
Important:
When a DTS disc is played on a CD, LD or DVD player, noise may be
output from the analog output. It is recommended that you connect the
digital output of the player to the digital input of this unit.
DSP surround modes
The DSP (Digital Signal Processor) used for this receiver incorporates
a variety of high quality adjustable sound fields, like “ARENA”, “JAZZ”
“CLUB”, “THEATER”, “STADIUM” and “DISCO”. It is compatible
with almost any kind of program source.
DVD 6-channel input
If you own a DVD player equipped with 6-channel output, this receiver
allows you to obtain the full surround sound impact of DVD source
material featuring multi-channel encoding. Since the source signals are
digital and each channel is input independently, the resulting ambience
is far superior to what can be achieved with conventional surround
sound systems.
CINEMA EQ
Cinema EQ mode will produce a more dynamic sound quality in any
conditions. You can enjoy a more impressive sound effect when you
switch CINEMA EQ ON during Dolby Digital and DTS playback.
ACTIVE EQ
AAAAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA AAAAAAAA.AAAAAAAAAAA
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA AAAA AAAAAAAAAAAAA AAA
AAAAAAA AAAA.

In addition to the basic receiver, the remote control supplied with this
receiver can also operate almost all of your remote controllable audio
and video components. Just follow the simple setup procedure to
register the components you have connected.
RF remote signal (For VR-6060 only)
You can operate the receiver by sending RF remote signal from the
remote control. The controllable range of the remote control is not
influenced by surroundings such as distance or an obstruction.

Setting up the system
Make connections as shown in the following pages.
When connecting the related system components, be sure
to refer to the instruction manuals supplied with the components you are connecting.
Do not connect the power cord to a wall outlet until all
connections are completed.
DTS disclaimer clause
DTS Digital Surround™ is a discrete 5.1 channel digital audio format
available on CD, LD, and DVD software which consequently cannot
be decoded and played back inside most CD, LD, or DVD players. For
this reason, when DTS-encoded software is played back through the
analog outputs of the CD, LD, or DVD player, excessive noise will be
exhibited. To avoid possible damage to the audio system, proper
precautions should be taken by the consumer if the analog outputs
are connected directly to an amplification system. To enjoy DTS
Digital Surround™ playback, an external 5.1 channel DTS Digital
Surround™ decoder system must be connected to the digital output
(S/P DIF, AES/EBU, or TosLink) of the CD, LD or DVD player.
This unit is equipped with DTS Digital Surround TM decoder.
Notes
1. Be sure to insert all connection cords securely. If their connections are
imperfect, sound may not be produced or there will be noise inference.
2. Be sure to remove the power cord from the AC outlet before plugging
or unplugging any connection cords. Plugging/unplugging connection
cords without disconnecting the power cord can cause malfunctions
and may damage the unit.
3. Do not connect power cords from components whose power consumption is larger than what is indicated on the AC outlet at the rear
of this unit.
Analog connections
Audio connections are made using RCA pin cords. These cables transfer
stereo audio signal in an “analog” form. This means the audio signal
corresponds to the actual audio of two channels. These cables usually
have 2 plugs on each end, one red for the right channel and one white for
the left channel. These cables are usually packed together with the
source unit, or are available at your local electronics retailer.
Microcomputer malfunction
If operation is not possible or an erroneous display appears, even
though all connections have been made properly, reset the microcomputer referring to “In case of difficulty”.
Input mode settings
CD/DVD, VIDEO2, VIDEO3 and DVD/6ch inputs each include jacks
for digital audio input and analog audio input.
You must select beforehand which type of input is to be used for each
connected component.
The initial factory settings for audio signal playback (CD/DVD,
DVD/6ch) and (VIDEO2, VIDEO3) are digital and analog respectively.
To use the analog audio input for playback instead (if, for example, you
have connected a VCR to the VIDEO2 or VIDEO3 input), you must set
the input mode for the corresponding input to the analog mode.
After completing connections and turning on the receiver, follow the
steps below.
INPUT MODE
Input Selector
1 Use the Input Selector keys to select CD/DVD, VIDEO2, VIDEO3
or DVD/6CH.
2 Press the INPUT MODE key.
Each press switches the setting as follows:
In DTS play mode
1 FULL AUTO (digital input, auto detect)
2 DIGITAL MANUAL (digital input, manual sound)
In DVD/6ch play mode
1 FULL AUTO (digital input, auto detect)
2 DIGITAL MANUAL (digital input, manual sound)
3 6CH INPUT (DVD/6ch input)
4 ANALOG (analog input, manual detect)
In modes other than DTS or DVD/6ch play mode
1 FULL AUTO (digital input, auto detect)
2 DIGITAL MANUAL (digital input, manual sound)
3 ANALOG (analog input, manual sound)

Digital input:
Select this setting to play digital signals from a DVD, CD, or LD
player.
Analog input:
Select this setting to play analog signals from a cassette deck, VCR,
or record player.
Auto detect:
In the auto detect mode (AUTO DETECT indicator lights), the
receiver selects the listening mode automatically during playback to
match the type of input signal (Dolby Digital, PCM, DTS ) and the
speaker setting. The OPTICAL and COAXIAL indicator on the display
will light up when digital signal is detected. If the input signal is
analog, the ANALOG indicator will light up. The initial factory setting
is auto detect on.
To keep the receiver set to the currently selected listening mode,
use the INPUT MODE key to select “DIGITAL MANUAL” (manual
sound). However, even when this setting is selected, there may be
cases in which the listening mode is selected automatically to
match a Dolby Digital source signal depending on the combination
of listening mode and source signal.
If the INPUT MODE key is pressed quickly, sound may not be
produced.

Front speakers : Place to the front left and right of the listening
position. Front speakers are required for all surround modes.
Center speaker : Place front and center. This speaker stabilizes the
sound image and helps recreate sound motion. Be sure to connect a
center speaker when using the Dolby 3 Stereo mode.
Surround speakers : Place to the direct left and right, or slightly
behind, the listening position at even heights, approximately 1 meter
above the ears of the listeners. These speakers recreate sound
motion and atmosphere. Required for surround playback.
Subwoofer : Reproduces powerful deep bass sounds.
Surround back speaker : Place the speaker directly at the rear of the
listening position. The optimum position depends mainly on the room
condition.
• Although the ideal surround system consists of all the speakers
listed above, if you don't have a center speaker or a subwoofer, you
can divide those signals between the available speakers in the
speaker settings steps to obtain the best possible surround reproduction from the speakers you have available.
¡
Channel space switching
(Except for the U.S.A., Canada and Australia)
• Sound will not be heard if the speaker terminal is not fully secured.
• Never short circuit the + and – speaker cords.
• If the left and right speakers are connected inversely or the speaker
cords are connected with reversed polarity, the sound will be
unnatural with ambiguous acoustic imaging. Be sure to connect the
speakers correctly.
The space between radio channels has been set to the one that
prevails in the area to which the system is shipped. However, if the
current channel space setting does not match the setting in the area
where the system is to be used, for instance when you move from
area 1 or area 2 shown in the following table or vice versa, proper
reception of AM/FM broadcasts cannot be expected. In this case,
change the channel space setting in accordance with your area by
referring to the following table.
Speaker impedance
After confirming the speaker impedance indications printed on the
rear panel of the receiver, connect speakers with matching impedance ratings. Using speakers with a rated impedance other than that
indicated on the rear panel of the receiver could result in malfunctions
or damage to the speakers or receiver.

This receiver is equipped with listening modes that allow
you to enjoy an enhanced sonic ambience with a variety of
video sources.
In order to obtain the optimum effect from the surround
modes, make sure to input the proper speaker settings
beforehand.
¡
Dolby Digital
The Dolby Digital surround format lets you enjoy up to 5.1 channels
of digital surround sound from Dolby Digital program sources (such as
). Compared with previLaserdisc or DVD software marked
ous Dolby surround, Dolby Digital provides even better sound quality,
greater spatial accuracy, and improved dynamic range.
Note
Although a full set of speakers (front left, right, and center, surround
left and right, and a subwoofer) is required for true 5.1 channel Dolby
Digital surround sound, this receiver lets you enjoy Dolby Digital (and
Dolby Surround) program sources, even if you connect only the front
speakers.
Surround modes
DTS-ES
The DTS-ES (Digital Theater System-Extended Surround) represents
6.1-channel Discrete Surround format, expanding upon 5.1 surround.
DTS-ES format is a 6.1 channel sound system for movie theatres that
includes as addtional surround-center channel matrixed within
surround-left and surround-right. It’s compatible on predecessor
DTS 5.1 system. The extra channel allows more accurate placement
and steering of sound accross the rear soundstage.The DTS-ES
receiver will be required, to experience a discrete 6.1-channel mix.
The DTS-ES decoders used in home cinema systems have decoding
options for utilising the extra channel, in addition to processing
existing 5.1 channel surround sound :
DTS-ES Discrete 6.1 and DTS-ES Matrix 6.1 add the surround back
channel audio to the DTS 5.1-channel format to improve the acoustic
positioning and makes acoustic image movement more natural with
the 6.1-channel reproduction. NEO:6 is a new technology which
decodes 2-channel signals into 6-channel signals using high-accuracy
digital matrix technology. According to the signals to be played back,
DTS NEO:6 uses either the NEO:CINEMA mode optimized for movie
playback or the NEO:MUSIC mode optimized for music playback.

Dolby Pro Logic II was designed specifically to provide a new sense
of spatiality, directionality and articulation of sounds from Dolby
Surround encoded sources (such as video and Laserdisc software
). This is achieved with an intelligent, built-in
marked
feedback logic design, a matrix surround decoding and the decoding
of stereo, full bandwidth surround outputs. The PRO LOGIC II modes
programmed into this receiver are “MOVIE”, “MUSIC” and “PRO
LOGIC”. The “MOVIE” mode of the PRO LOGIC II has preset
characteristics to produce a calibrated, high-level surround sound
playback while the “MUSIC” mode has user-adjustable characteristics to offer the three optional controls, like “Dimension”, “Center
Width” and “Panorama mode” to allow optimization of the soundfields
as desired. The “Dimension” control allows the user to gradually
adjust the soundfield either towards the front or towards the rear; the
“Center Width” control allows various adjustment of the left-centerright speakers’ balance; the “Panaroma mode” extends the front
stereo image to include the surround speakers for an exciting “wraparound” effect with side wall imaging.

SRS Circle Surround II ™ improves on its predecessor CS-5.1™
resulting in the CS-6.1™ system, enabling you to listen to realistic,
multi-channel, surround sound playback from a stereo source or
conventional surround-encoded video source. You already enjoy
listening to Dolby digital sound/DTS multi-channel sound with your
multi-speakers. Now you can listen to audio CDs, MDs, Broadcast and
Home Theater using your multi-speakers. You will discover a new
type of sound through SRS Circle Surround II.
The CS system dramatically reduces storage space requirements for
multi-channel content. It creates a listening environment that places
the listener “inside” music performances, and dramatically improves
both hi-fi audio and conventional surround-encoded video material.
The CS decoder also includes the SRS technologies Focus™ and
TruBass™. Focus electronically raises the sound stage from the
speaker location to an optimal position. TruBass creates deep, rich
bass in small speaker systems without the need for a subwoofer.
The DSP mode lets you add the atmosphere of a live concert or hall
to almost any type of program source. These modes are particularly
effective when used with stereo program sources, like CD, television,
and FM radio. You might enjoy trying the ARENA, JAZZ CLUB,
THEATER, STADIUM or DISCO mode the next time you watch a
concert or sporting event!

DSP stands for Digital Signal Processor.
The way a sound is heard in an actual environment depends on a
variety of different factors. One of the most important is reverberation
(the act of decaying elements of sound echoing in various places).
The DSP modes produce the feeling of presence by using the DSP to
create reverberation, without spoiling the sound quality of the original
signal.
DVD 6-channel mode
Using a DVD player or the like equipped with six (5.1) output channels
and the receiver, you can enjoy multi-channel encoded DVD source
material in all its splendor. Since the source signals are digital and
each channel is input independently, the resulting sound quality,
sense of spaciousness, and dynamic range are superb.
