RSP-1066 Surround Sound Processor

Tone Controls

The front-panel BASS and TREBLE controls
increase or decrease the audio signal's low and
high frequency content respectively and allow
you to tailor the sound to your own preferences.
Rotate clockwise to increase the bass or treble
and counterclockwise to reduce. The front-panel
display and ON-SCREEN DISPLAY show tone
control settings as you adjust them.
Bass and treble adjustments can also be made
from the remote control:
1. Press the SHIFT button
or TREBLE mode, pressing it again to toggle
between the two.
2. Press the UP/DOWN buttons
just the bass or treble.

FILTER Button

The FILTER button (remote only) activates or
deactivates a special CINEMA EQ setting. This
equalization may be desirable for playback
of movie source material to compensate for
the acoustic differences between a commer-
cial cinema and a home theater environment.
The FILTER setting is independent for each source
input. Using the button only changes the set-
ting for the currently active source input.

MENU Button

The MENU button is used to access the ON-
SCREEN DISPLAY system used in configuring
the RSP-1066. Push the MENU button on the
remote to turn on the ON-SCREEN DISPLAY
menu system. If the menu system is already
visible, push this button to cancel the display.
The front panel FL display can be turned off
by pressing and holding the MENU button on
the remote for three seconds. Briefly press the
MENU button again to turn the display back
on. The display also turns back on whenever
the POWER button on the front-panel or re-
mote is pressed.

ENTER Button

The ENTER button is used to confirm and
memorize various settings in the setup and
operation of the RSP-1066. Its use is described
in detail in the relevant sections.

Input Controls

Input Source Buttons

The RSP-1066 can be used with up to eight
source components. Press any of the eight front-
panel buttons to select an audio or video in-
put source (TUNER, CD, VCR, etc.) for listen-
ing. You will hear this source and, if you have
selected a video source, see its picture on your
TV monitor.
The front-panel display and the ON-SCREEN
to select BASS
DISPLAY on the TV will show the name of the
current listening source selection. The labels
for VIDEO sources can be customized to match
to ad- your components.
All of the inputs (the five video inputs, the CD
input, the TUNER input, and the TAPE input)
can accept either analog signals or digital sig-
nals from one of the five assignable digital
inputs. When a digital input is assigned dur-
ing system configuration, the RSP-1066 checks
for the presence of a digital signal at that in-
put. If a digital signal is present when the source
is selected, it is automatically activated and
the proper surround mode enabled. If no digital
signal is present, the analog inputs for that
source are activated. This auto-sensing is the
preferred configuration for digital source in-
puts such as DVD players. When an ANALOG
input is assigned, the unit will not access a
digital signal, even though one may be avail-
able at the digital input.
By default, the source input buttons are fac-
tory configured to select the following inputs:
CD:
Tuner:
Tape:
Video 1:
Video 2:
Video 3:
Video 4:
Video 5:

Screen Display/Configuration section of this
manual for details about configuring inputs.
The input source buttons can also be used with
the REC button
tion) to select an analog input source signal
to be available at the outputs for recording.
Additionally, the input source buttons can be
used with the ZONE button
analog input source for ZONE 2.

REC Button

ZONE Button

The RSP-1066 can record from any analog
source to a VCR or other recorder connected
to the VIDEO 1, 2 or 3 outputs or the TAPE
outputs, even while you are listening to a dif-
ferent input source. To select an input source
for recording, press the REC button on the front-
panel (or the equivalent ZONE button on the
remote). Then, press one of the INPUT SOURCE
buttons within 5 seconds to select the signal
you wish to record. After making your selec-
tion (or if more than five seconds passes), the
input source buttons return to their normal
function, selecting a listening source.
Remember, this selection is independent of the
listening source. While recording, you may
still select a different source for listening. The
record selection appears in the display to the
right of the listening selection.
: The RECORD function requires analog
NOTE
signals. If you use a digital connection from
a CD player or DVD for listening, you should
also connect an analog signal for recording.
MULTI Input
EXT IN
The RSP-1066 can accept 6.1 channel discrete
analog signals from an outboard digital pro-
cessor, thus allowing compatibility with future
surround sound formats.
Press the MULTI INPUT button (or the EXT IN
button on the remote) to override any other audio
input (both analog and digital) and select the
audio signal from an external digital adaptor.
: Temporary adjustments in the levels for
NOTE
all channels of the MULTI Input can be made
with the remote control. See the Speaker Level
Adjustment instructions in the following Sur-
round Sound Controls section. In addition, the
subwoofer default level for the MULTI Input can
be set using the SUBWOOFER SETUP menu
of the ON-SCREEN DISPLAY system.
This input only changes the audio signal; the
video signal from the currently selected input
remains in use. When activated, the RSP-1066's
digital processing is bypassed. An indicator
appears in the front-panel display.
: When the MULTI CH input is selected,

the CB output is available only at the CB1
PREOUT connector. No signal is available at
the CB2 PREOUT connector.
