IMMERSE YOURSELF IN 3D-SOUND
Auro-3D
®
is the next generation three-dimensional audio standard. It provides a
realistic sound experience unlike anything before. By fully immersing the listener
in a cocoon of life-like sound, Auro-3D
®
creates the sensation of actually ‘being
there’. Thanks to a unique ‘height’ channel configuration, recorded acoustic
reflections are reproduced by these speakers and are heard naturally due to the
fact that sounds originate from around as well as above the listener.
How does Auro-3D
®
work?
By fully immersing the listener in a cocoon of life-like sound, Auro-3D
®
creates
the sensation of actually ‘being there’. Thanks to a unique configuration of ‘height
channels’, recorded acoustic reflections are reproduced by these speakers and are
heard naturally due to the fact that sounds originate from around as well as above
the listener. Either 1 or 2 additional layers (HEIGHT and TOP – a.k.a. “Voice of God”
channel) with speakers are mounted above the existing surround layer to produce
Auro-3D
®
’s defining ‘vertical stereo field’.
How can I get Auro-3D
®
content?
The height information, captured in recording or created during the mixing process,
is mixed into a standard 5.1 PCM stream that comes with a regular Blu-ray. Major
Hollywood studios and musicians are partnering with Auro to create native Auro-
3D
®
content on Blu-ray Discs. Moreover, the Auro-3D
®
Engine combines different
technologies to guarantee an optimum 3D sound experience generated both
natively and from existing audio content.
What home setup do I need to experience Auro-3D
®
?
To experience the immersive sound of Auro-3D
®
, you need to have a home theater
setup with a Blu-ray player, at least an Auro 9.1ch speaker set, and an Auro-
capable A/V Receiver. Marantz is the first to offer a unique feature upgrade for
its top-class A/V Receivers. Once upgraded with the Auro
®
-Codec Decoder, the
Marantz SR7009 and AV7702 are capable of decoding the original Auro-3D
®
mix
and playing back an Auro 10.1 channel configuration (including “Voice of God”
channel).
Does Auro-3D
®
work with existing non-Auro audio content?
Yes. Whatever the resolution of audio input, the Auro-3D
®
Engine will create a full
3D experience thanks to Auro-Matic
®
. This groundbreaking up-mixing algorithm
converts legacy content into the Auro-3D
®
format. It recognizes existing Mono,
Stereo or 5.1/7.1 surround signals and transforms them into 3D audio firing up all
Auro height speakers. Regardless of original format, you can always experience
the stunning effect of sound in 3D. Playing Dolby Atmos
®
decoded content, the
height information will be reproduced by the Auro Front height speakers.
