Important
Read this section before setting up or operating your new music system
The Techwood DD81 music system is a “state-of-the-art” digital home theater music system. It is equipped
with built-in, Dolby Digital Surround Sound, and is ready for the addition of digital audio/video components
such as DVD, DSS (digital satellite) and HDTV (high definition TV). This section describes some of the
features and Important things you need to know before proceeding with set-up or operation.
The DD81 is equipped with three built-in music sources that can be enjoyed by simply pressing one of the
corresponding function buttons on the front panel or remote control after initial set-up has been completed.
Tuner Plays AM and FM Stereo radio broadcasts
CD Plays music CD’s
Tape Plays and records cassette tapes
You can also connect optional audio/video components to the DD81 and create a true “Home Theater”
experience in your home. This allows the audio sound from the video components to play through the
DD81 music system. You can connect up to three of the following video components:
TV/AUX Television (regular or HDTV), Cable or Satellite Boxes
DVD Digital video disc player
VCR Video cassette recorder/player
To enjoy “Home Theater” surround sound, the Techwood DD81 is equipped with three different types of
Dolby Surround Sound plus, two simulated surround modes. The type of surround sound used to create
your “Home Theater” experience will depend on the video component being played, the type of audio
connection (analog or digital) made to the rear of the DD81 jack panel and the source material being
played. To enjoy true Dolby Surround Sound, the source material must be recorded or broadcast in either
Dolby Pro Logic or Dolby Digital Surround Sound. Source material recorded or
broadcast in stereo, such as radio broadcasts, CD’s, cassette tapes or TV programs can be played using
the Hall or Theater Simulated surround sound modes.
Surround Sound Modes
1) Hall (simulated)
2) Theater (simulated)
3) Dolby 3 Stereo
4) Dolby Pro Logic
5) Dolby Digital (Digital connection and Dolby Digital source required)
The first four types of surround sound will operate when using an analog, stereo audio signal from the tuner,
CD, cassette, TV, VCR, cable or satellite box.
The fifth type, Dolby Digital, will only operate when a digital component such as a DVD player, Digital Cable
Box, Digital Satellite (DSS) or HDTV is connected to one of the three digital audio inputs on the rear of the
DD81 and when a program or disc encoded in Dolby Digital Surround Sound is played.
IMPORTANT: Dolby Digital Surround Sound will not operate with an analog audio signal from the
tuner, CD, cassette, standard TV, VCR or cable box.
Since the DD81 is ready for the addition of digital audio/video components such as a DVD player, High
Definition TV (HDTV) or Digital Cable or Satellite Box, there are digital audio input jacks on the rear of
the unit. Digital audio inputs are included for the AUX/TV and DVD functions. This allows you to connect
up to two digital audio/video components – one to the AUX/TV function and another to the DVD function.

There is also a Digital Input selector on the front panel and remote control. If you are connecting
any audio/video components to the AUX/TV or DVD inputs, during the initial set-up and before
operating the unit, you must select the type of audio input signal used for each component.
Use the Digital Input selector on the front panel or on the remote control to select between
analog and digital inputs. This must be done when using the AUX/TV and/or DVD functions
on the DD81. Once the input signal is set for each of these functions, the DD81 will remember
the input type for all future uses. Specific instructions for connecting digital audio/video
components to the DD81 are included below. It is recommended you read these instructions
before starting set-up.
Digital audio input jacks for connecting digital audio/video components
There are three digital input jacks and one digital output jack on the rear of the DD81. To enjoy
the built-in Dolby Digital Surround Sound feature, you must use a digital connection when
connecting a digital audio/video component such as a DVD player or digital cable box.
To connect a DVD player, use a single coaxial cable with RCA type jacks on both ends (available
at your local electronics store). Connect one end to the Digital Coaxial audio output on the DVD
player and the other end to the Digital Coaxial audio input on the rear of the DD81 (see page 8 for
connection diagram).
To connect a digital TV (HDTV), cable or satellite box, use a coaxial or optical audio cable (available
at your local electronics store). Connect one end to the Digital audio output on the TV/cable/satellite
box and the other end to the Digital audio input marked TV/AUX on the rear of the DD81.
(Note, some digital cable and satellite boxes do not have digital audio outputs. In this case, you
should connect the box to the DD81 using a standard analog audio cable with dual RCA type jacks
on each end. Connect one end to the two analog audio output jacks on the rear of the box and the
other end to the TV/AUX analog audio input jacks on the rear of the DD81(see pg. 9 for connection
diagram).
Digital Input Selector
If you connect any audio/video component to the AUX/TV or DVD audio inputs on the rear of the
DD81 (ie: TV, DVD, cable/satellite box), you must select the type of audio signal used for each
component connected. This must be done during initial set-up and before operating the DD81.
Using the Digital Input selector on the front panel or remote control, select the appropriate input
type used as follows:
Function Select Audio Input Signal Used
AUX/TV Analog – Optical – Coaxial
DVD Analog - Coaxial
After this first-time setting, the DD81 will memorize the type of audio input selected for all future uses.
Important: If you connect audio/video components to the AUX/TV or DVD functions of the DD81 and
after initial set-up you cannot hear audio sound, check which type of audio input has been selected.
If the audio input selected does not match the type of audio input actually used, you will not hear any
sound. Press the Digital Input Selector button one time to see which input has been selected. With
the input still illuminated in the display, press again to change the input.
If you have any questions about operating the DD81 home theater music system, call the
Techwood product support center at 888-440-3465, Monday to Friday, 8AM – 4PM CST.

SURROUND MODE Button
Use the Surround mode button to select the type of sound
desired – surround or stereo.Each time you press the
surround mode button, the type of surround sound will
change. When playing stereo analog audio sources such as
the tuner, tape, CD, television or VCR you may select from:
PRO-LOGIC 3 STEREO ANALOG STEREO
HALL THEATER
The PRO-LOGIC and 3 STEREO surround modes, require
an audio source that is recorded or broadcast in Dolby
Surround Sound . Most videos and many
television programs are recorded in Dolby Surround.
Standard stereo recordings and broadcasts should be
played in ANALOG STEREO, THEATER or HALL modes.
Note: you can play standard stereo audio signals from the
tuner, tape, CD, VCR or TV in PRO-LOGIC or 3 STEREO
mode. However, the rear channel output levels may sound
low and fade in and out. Also, mono (non-stereo) audio
sources, like AM radio stations, will not play in surround
sound. Surround sound requires a stereo audio source.
When operating the DD81 in DIGITAL mode with an
optional DVD player or Digital cable / satellite box
connected and when the audio program source is in Dolby
Digital Surround Sound , you may select DIGITAL
surround sound using the surround mode button. This
surround option is only available when a DVD player, HDTV
or Digital cable / satellite box is connected to the DVD or
AUX/TV digital audio input jacks on the rear of the DD81
and the audio source being played is recorded or broadcast
in Dolby Digital Surround Sound.
STEREO DIRECT MODE
Selecting the STEREO DIRECT button will bypass the
current surround mode setting allowing you to listen in 2
