Using Receiver How Do I Adjust the Surround Modes? • DTS NEO:6: This is a new technology which decodes 2-channel signals into 6-channel signals using high-accuracy digital matrix technology. The DTS NEO:6 decoder has near-discrete properties in the frequency characteristics of the channels as well as in channel separation. According to the signals to be played back, DTS NEO:6 uses either the NEO:CINEMA mode optimized for movie playback or the NEO:MUSIC mode optimized for music playback. • MPEG: MPEG, which stands for "Moving Pictures Experts Group", is an international standard of digital video and audio compression and decompression in media. It is the most efficient encoding method for compressed multi-channel audio which provides the highest sound quality to deliver the best movie theater sound into the home. • DSP (Digital Signal Processing): DSP allows you to create your own custom surround sound environments and use them with any source (except Dolby Digital, MPEG, DTS and DTS-ES). You can select the ambience of an Arena, Jazz Club, Stadium, Cathedral, Theater or Concert hall, and then modify the parameters to 'fine-tune' the environment to your taste. (See "Applying Digital Signal Processor (DSP) Effects" on page 31 for details about making DSP adjustments.) • Multi ch Music (Multichannel music): All speakers are used to realize a stereo sound with a wide listening range. • Stereo: Stereo listen mode provides standard stereo sound to the front left and right speakers. • You cannot select the Input Analog mode if you are playing DTS-encoded media. • You cannot listen to DTS-encoded media in Zone B. • When playing DTS-encoded media, wait until "DTS" appears on the receiver display before proceeding. • The listen mode is fixed to Stereo during playback of 96k fs signals. 20
