ENGLISH AUTO When this mode is selected, the unit determines whether the digital input signal is Dolby Digital, Dolby Digital Surround EX, Dolby Digital Plus, Dolby TrueHD, DTS-HD, DTS, DTS-ES, DTS 96/24 or PCM audio. Surround EX & DTS-ES will operate for multichannel sources that have a Dolby Digital Surround EX or DTS-ES auto trigger flag in the digital signal. When a Dolby Digital or DTS signal is input, the number of channels for which the corresponding signal is encoded will be played. Inputting a Dolby Digital two channel signal with Dolby surround status automatically subjects that signal to Pro Logic IIx movie processing before play. PCM 96 kHz source material can be played in this mode. Notes: • When you use this mode with certain DVD and CD players, performing operations such as skip or stop may momentarily interrupt the output. • When the signal is not decoded, the mode is changed to AUTO mode automatically. See page 60 to confirm the available decoding modes. SOURCE DIRECT In the Source Direct mode, the tone control circuit Acoustic EQ. and bass management configuration are bypassed for full-range frequency response and the purist audio reproduction. Notes: • Speaker size is set to Front L/R = LARGE, Center = LARGE, Surround L/R = LARGE and Subwoofer = YES automatically. Tone controls, equalizer and additional processing are deactivated. • When you use this mode with certain DVD and CD players, performing operations such as skip or stop may momentarily interrupt the output. • In SOURCE DIRECT mode, ACOUSTIC EQ and M-DAX are not available. PURE DIRECT The Pure Direct mode further reduces sources of noise in addition to effect of the Source Direct mode, by blocking output from the video jacks (VIDEO, S-VIDEO, COMPONENT VIDEO and HDMI) and turning the FL display off. Note: • In PURE DIRECT mode, ACOUSTIC EQ and MDAX are not available. EX/ES This mode provides 6.1 channel surround for Dolby Digital EX, and DTS-ES-encoded source material such as DVD. This mode cannot be used when an analog input has been selected. Dolby Digital EX In a movie theater, film soundtracks that have been encoded with Dolby Digital Surround EX technology are able to reproduce an extra channel which has been added during the mixing of the program. This channel, called surround back, places sounds behind the listener in addition to the currently available front left, front center, front right, surround right, surround left and subwoofer channels. This additional channel provides the opportunity for more detailed imaging behind the listener and brings more depth, spacious ambience and sound localization than ever before. Dolby Digital EX is not available in systems that do not have without surround back speaker(s). DTS-ES (Discrete 6.1, Matrix 6.1) DTS-ES adds the surround center channel audio to the DTS 5.1 channel format to improve the acoustic positioning, and makes acoustic image movement more natural with the 6.1 channel reproduction. This unit incorporates a DTS-ES-decoder, which can handle DTS-ES Discrete-encoded and DTS-ES Matrix-encoded program sources from DVD, etc. DTS-ES Discrete 6.1 features digital discrete recording of all channels, including the surround back channel(s), and higher quality audio reproduction. DTS-ES is not available in systems that do not have surround back speakers. 2 MODE (Dolby Digital, Pro Logic IIx MOVIE, Pro Logic IIx MUSIC, Pro Logic IIx GAME) This mode is used with source materials encoded in Dolby Digital and Dolby Surround. DOLBY DIGITAL This mode is enabled when playing source materials encoded in Dolby Digital. Playing multichannel-encoded 5.1 channel Dolby Digital sources provides 5 main audio channels (left, center, right, surround left and surround right) and a Low Frequency Effect channel. Dolby Digital EX decoding is not available in this mode. Dolby Pro Logic IIx has 5 modes: Pro Logic IIx MOVIE This mode provides 6.1 or 7.1 channel surround sound from Dolby Surround, encoded stereo movie soundtracks. Pro Logic IIx MUSIC This mode provides 6.1 or 7.1 channel surround sound from conventional stereo sources (analog or digital), such as CD, tape, FM, TV, stereo VCR, etc. Pro Logic IIx GAME This mode restores the impact low-frequency surround effects by routing them to the system's subwoofer. 5.1ch + Pro Logic IIx Movie This mode provides 7.1 channel surround sound from 5.1 channel sources movie soundtracks. 5.1ch + Pro Logic IIx Music This mode provides 6.1 or 7.1 channel surround sound from 5.1 channel sources music soundtracks. Notes: • Pro Logic IIx mode will decode as Pro Logic II mode when the SURR. B is set to "NONE" from SPEAKER SETUP menu. (See page 49) • Pro Logic IIx mode is available for a 2 channel input signal which is encoded in Dolby Digital, HDCD or PCM format. dts dts, Neo:6 Cinema, Neo:6 Music This mode is for DTS-encoded source materials such as laserdisc, CD and DVD. Neo:6 is for some 2 channel sources. dts This mode is enabled when playing source materials encoded in dts multichannel. Playing multichannel encoded-5.1 channel dts sources provides five main audio channels (left, center, right, surround left and surround right) and a Low Frequency Effects channel. dts-ES decoding is not available in this mode. The DTS mode cannot be used when an analog input has been selected. Neo:6 Cinema, Neo:6 Music This mode 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:6 Cinema mode optimized for movie playback or the Neo:6 Music mode optimized for music playback. Note: • The Neo:6 mode is available for 2 channel input signals which are encoded in Dolby Digital, HDCD or PCM format. CIRCLE SURROUND II (CSII-CINEMA, CSII-MUSIC, CSII-MONO) Circle Surround is designed to enable multichannel surround sound playback of non-encoded and multichannel encoded material. Backward compatibility provides listeners with up to 6.1 channels of surround performance from an entire collection of music and film, including broadcast, videotape and stereo recorded music. Depending on source material, you can select CSIICinema mode, CSII-Music mode or CSII-Mono mode. Note: • The CS II mode is available for 2 channel input signals which are encoded in Dolby Digital, HDCD or PCM format. 62
