Playback using the external input (EXT. IN) jacks

(Main unit) (Remote control unit)
Once this is selected, the input signals connected to the FL
(front left), FR (front right), C (center), SL (surround left) and
SR (surround right) channels of the EXT. IN jacks are output
directly to the front (left and right), center and surround (left
and right) speaker systems as well as the pre-out jacks
without passing through the surround circuitry.
In addition, the signal input to the SW (subwoofer) jack is
output to the PRE OUT SUBWOOFER jack.
When 6CH/8CH EXT. IN is selected, the input signals
connected to the EL (effect left) and ER (effect right)
jacks are output to the PRE OUT effect (left and right)
jacks.
2Canceling the external input mode
To cancel the external input (6CH/8CH EXT. IN) setting, press
the INPUT MODE or ANALOG button to switch to the
desired input mode. (See page 37.)
(Main unit) (Remote control unit)
• When the input mode is set to the external input (6CH/8CH EXT. IN), the play mode (DIRECT, STEREO, DOLBY/DTS SURROUND, WIDE
SCREEN, 5CH STEREO or DSP SIMULATION) cannot be set.
NOTES:
• In play modes other than the external input mode, the signals connected to these jacks cannot be played. In addition, signals cannot be
output from channels not connected to the input jacks.
• The external input mode can be set for any input source. To watch video while listening to sound, select the input source to which the
video signal is connected, then set this mode.
