ADVANCED FUNCTIONS Table 6 - Surround Modes (Continued) Surround Mode Description Incoming Bitstream or Signal DTS Neo:6 Cinema Depending on the number of speakers in your system, select 3- or 5-channel modes, enhanced for movie or video presentations. • DTS-ES Matrix • DTS-ES Discrete • Analog (2-channel) • PCM (32kHz, 44.1kHz or 48kHz) DTS Neo:6 Music Available only in 5-channel mode, creates a surround presentation suitable for music recordings. • DTS-ES Matrix • DTS-ES Discrete • Analog (2-channel) • PCM (32kHz, 44.1kHz or 48kHz) Logic 7 Mode Group Exclusive to Harman Kardon, Logic 7 enhances 2-channel recordings by deriving separate information for the surround back channels. This provides more accurate placement of sound, improves panning and expands the sound field, even when used with 5.1-channel systems. Logic 7 uses 96kHz processing. Three variants are available. See below. Logic 7 Cinema Especially suited to 2-channel sources containing Dolby Surround or • Analog (2-channel) matrix encoding, Logic 7 Cinema mode increases center channel intelligibility. • Tuner • PCM (32kHz, 44.1kHz, 48kHz, 96kHz) Logic 7 Music The AVR 147 is programmed at the factory to default to this mode for 2-channel signals. Logic 7 Music mode is well suited to conventional 2-channel music recordings. • Analog (2-channel) • Tuner • PCM (32kHz, 44.1kHz, 48kHz, 96kHz) Logic 7 Enhance Logic 7 Enhance circulates low frequencies in the 40Hz - 120Hz range to • Analog (2-channel) the main speakers for less localized bass performance than would be achieved • Tuner solely with a subwoofer. Enhance mode is best used with music recordings. • PCM (32kHz, 44.1kHz, 48kHz, 96kHz) Hall 1 Hall 1 is a DSP (digital signal processor) mode that simulates a small • Analog (2-channel) concert hall. • Tuner • PCM (32kHz, 44.1kHz or 48kHz) Hall 2 Simulates a medium-sized concert hall. • Analog (2-channel) • Tuner • PCM (32kHz, 44.1kHz or 48kHz) Theater Simulates a live-performance theater. • Analog (2-channel) • Tuner • PCM (32kHz, 44.1kHz or 48kHz) 5-Channel Stereo Useful for parties, the left- and right-channel information is played through both the front and surround speakers on each side, while the center speaker plays a summed mono mix. • Analog (2-channel) • Tuner • PCM (32kHz, 44.1kHz or 48kHz) DSP Surround Off Turns off all surround processing and plays a pure 2-channel signal. The signal is digitized and bass management settings are applied, making it appropriate when a subwoofer is used. • Analog (2-channel) • Tuner • PCM (32kHz, 44.1kHz, 48kHz, 96kHz) Surround Off (Analog Bypass) Maintains an analog input signal in that form, bypassing all digital processing • Analog (2-channel) (i.e., surround and bass management). Requires TONE OUT setting. • Tuner 44
