Each source input should be configured us-
ing the ON-SCREEN DISPLAY menu system to
use the desired input type (analog or digital
auto-sensing). See the INPUT MENU section
for configuration instructions.
NOTE: In addition to selecting analog or digital
signals, the configuration options also permit
custom labeling and selection of a default sur-
round mode for each of the eight inputs.
The input source buttons can also be used
(with the SEL button described in the next
section) to select an analog input source sig-
nal to be available at the outputs for record-
ing, and to select an analog input source
for Zones 2–4.
Selecting a Source Input from
the Front Panel
To select a source for LISTENING: Press
one of the eight INPUT buttons or the MULTI
INPUT button.
To select a source for RECORDING: Press
the SEL button once and then press one of the
eight INPUT buttons within 5 seconds.
To select a source for Zone 2, 3 or 4:
Press the SEL button two or more times to se-
lect the desired zone and then press one of
the INPUT buttons within 10 seconds.
NOTE: See the section on Zone 2–4 opera-
tions for details of selecting a source for the
remote zone.
Selecting a Source from the
Remote
To select a source for LISTENING in
the main room: press and hold one of the
DEVICE/INPUT buttons for more than one
second. To select the MULTI INPUT, press
and hold the EXT button.
NOTE: A short press of a DEVICE/INPUT but-
ton changes the remote control device only, but
does not change the source input.
To select a source for RECORDING:
Press the REC button. Then, press and hold
one of the DEVICE/INPUT buttons within 5
seconds.
Alternatively, you can press the REC button
and then use the +/– buttons to scroll through
the available source options. Select any input
(CD, TUNER, TAPE, or VIDEO 1–5). Select-
ing the SOURCE option links the recording
27
source to the input selected for main room
listening. Whatever input is selected for listen-
ing is also sent to the record outputs.
To select a source for Zone 2, 3 or 4:
Press the REC button two or more times to se-
lect a zone. Then, press and hold one of the
DEVICE/INPUT buttons within 10 seconds.
Alternatively, you can press the ZONE button
and then use the +/– buttons to scroll through
the available source options. Select any in-
put (CD, TUNER, TAPE, or VIDEO 1–5). Se-
lecting the SOURCE option links the Zone 2,
3 or 4 source to the input selected for main
room listening. Whatever input is selected
for the main room is also sent to the Zone 2,
3 or 4 outputs.
Selecting the Same Input for
all Outputs
You may wish to have the same input for
listening, recording, and all of the remote
zones. The RX-1058 makes this configuration
(called Party Mode) easy by linking the inputs
for recording and remote zones to the input
selected for listening. When linked, chang-
ing the input selection for listening will au-
tomatically change the input for recording
and remote zones.
To activate Party Mode, press and hold
the ZONE button on the front panel or Remote
for at least 3 seconds. The words PARTY ON
appear briefly in the display and the ZONE
icon flashes for ten seconds. The record input
selection and all remote zone input selections
will be displayed as "SOURCE", indicating
that they are linked to the input selected for
listening. While in PARTY mode, a "P" indica-
tor remains in the front-panel display.
To cancel Party Mode, press and hold
the SEL button on the front panel or the REC
button on the remote for at least 3 seconds.
Party Mode is cancelled as indicated by the
temporary display of the words PARTY OFF
in the front-panel display. The recording input
and the inputs for all remote zones revert to
their last previous selection, no longer linked
to the listening input.
You can also cancel the link for just the record
output or for one individual zone by selecting
a different input for that output. In this case,
the input selection for the unchanged record
output or remote zones remained linked to the
listening input selection. Any source change
cancels the "P" indicator in the display.

Selecting Digital Inputs

A default digital audio input can be speci-
fied for each source input using the Input
Setup menu. However, you can override the
default digital input for the currently selected
source by pressing the D-SLT button on the
remote. Each press of the button steps to the
next digital input in order: OPTICAL 1, OPTI-
CAL 2, OPTICAL 3, OPTICAL 4, COAXIAL 1,
COAXIAL 2, COAXIAL 3. The actual choices
you see will be limited to those inputs with an
active digital signal connected, so you may
not see all of the inputs listed.
Overview of
Surround Formats
To get the best performance from your
RSX-1058, it helps to understand the many
surround sound formats available today, to
know which decoding process to use for a
particular recording, and how to select it. This
section provides basic background informa-
tion about surround sound formats. The fol-
lowing sections provide detailed operating
instructions for automatic and manual selec-
tion of surround modes.
NOTE: The RSX-1058 has built-in amplifiers
to drive five speakers in a 5.1 channel system.
To use surround modes for 6.1 or 7.1 channel
systems, you will need a separate power am-
plifier to drive one or two speakers.
Dolby Surround
Dolby Pro Logic II
The most widely available surround sound
format for consumer audio/video is Dolby
Surround
, available on nearly all commer-
®
cial VHS tapes, many television broadcasts,
and most DVDs. Dolby Surround is the con-
sumer version of the analog Dolby Stereo
system first introduced in the film industry in
1972. It is a matrix-encoding system that re-
cords front left, front center, front right, and
a mono surround channel into a 2-channel
stereo recording. During playback, a Dolby
Pro Logic
or Pro Logic II decoder extracts
®
each channel and distributes it to the appro-
priate speakers.
The original Dolby Pro Logic decoder delivered
a mono signal with reduced high-frequency
content to the surround speakers. A more
advanced decoder in the RSX-1058, Dolby
