1 Please use a commercially available adapter when connecting the Dolby Digital RF output jack of the

LD player to the digital input jack.

Please refer to the instruction manual of the adapter when making connection.

2 Some DVD digital outputs have the function of switching the Dolby Digital signal output method

between “bit stream” and “(convert to) PCM”. When playing in Dolby Digital surround on the AVR-

1905, switch the DVD player’s output mode to “bit stream”. In some cases players are equipped with

both “bit stream + PCM” and “PCM only” digital outputs. In this case connect the “bit stream + PCM”

jacks to the AVR-1905.

• Set the front speakers with their front surfaces as

flush with the TV or monitor screen as possible. Set

the center speaker between the front left and right

speakers and no further from the listening position

than the front speakers.

• Consult the owner’s manual for your subwoofer for

advice on placing the subwoofer within the listening

room.

• If the surround speakers are direct-radiating

(monopolar) then place them slightly behind and at

an angle to the listening position and parallel to the

walls at a position 60 to 90 cm above ear level at

the prime listening position.

Surround

The AVR-1905 is equipped with a digital signal processing circuit that lets you play program sources in the

surround mode to achieve the same sense of presence as in a movie theater.

Dolby Surround

(1) Dolby Digital

Dolby Digital is the multi-channel digital signal format developed by Dolby Laboratories.

Dolby Digital consists of up to “5.1” channels - front left, front right, center, surround left, surround right, and

an additional channel exclusively reserved for additional deep bass sound effects (the Low Frequency Effects

– LFE – channel, also called the “.1” channel, containing bass frequencies of up to 120 Hz).

Unlike the analog Dolby Pro Logic format, Dolby Digital’s main channels can all contain full range sound

information, from the lowest bass, up to the highest frequencies – 22 kHz. The signals within each channel

are distinct from the others, allowing pinpoint sound imaging, and Dolby Digital offers tremendous dynamic

range from the most powerful sound effects to the quietest, softest sounds, free from noise and distortion.

(2) Dolby Pro Logic IIx

• Dolby Pro Logic

IIx furthers the matrix decoding technology of Dolby Pro Logic II to decode audio signals

recorded on two channels into up to 7.1 playback channels, including the surround back channel. Dolby Pro

Logic

IIx also allows 5.1-channel sources to be played in up to 7.1 channels.

The mode can be selected according to the source. The Music mode is best suited for playing music, the

Cinema mode for playing movies, and the Game mode for playing games. The Game mode can only be

used with 2-channel audio sources.
