English AVR Appendix Table A8 - Surround Modes (cont.) Surround Mode Description Incoming Bitstream or Signal DTS-HD DTS-HD is a high-definition audio format that complements the high-definition video found on Blu-ray Disc and HD-DVD discs. It is transmitted using a DTS core with high-resolution extensions. Even when only DTS 5.1 surround sound is desired (or available, if the multizone system is in use), the higher capacity of high-resolution discs serves up DTS at twice the bit rate used on DVD-Video discs. • Blu-ray Disc or HD-DVD discs encoded with DTS-HD modes, delivered via HDMI connection DTS-HD Master Audio DTS-HD Master Audio technology delivers bit-for-bit reproductions of studio master • Blu-ray Disc or HD-DVD discs encoded with DTS-HD Master recordings for an incredibly accurate performance. Audio technology, delivered via HDMI connection DTS Stereo Delivers a 2-channel downmix of DTS Digital materials or presents a matrixencoded surround presentation. • DTS 1/0/.0 or .1, 2/0/.0 or .1, 3/0/.0 or .1, 3/1/.0 or .1, 2/2/.0 or .1, 3/2/.0 or .1 • DTS 96/24 • DTS-ES Matrix DTS Neo:6 Cinema DTS Neo:6 Music Logic 7 Mode Group Logic 7 Movie Logic 7 Music Logic 7 Game 5-Channel Stereo 2-Channel Stereo Delivers an enhanced 5.1-channel surround-sound experience for movies • Analog (two-channel) • AM/FM radio • PCM (32kHz, 44.1kHz, 48kHz, 96kHz Delivers an enhanced 5.1-channel surround-sound experience for music • Analog (two-channel) • AM/FM radio • PCM (32kHz, 44.1kHz, 48kHz, 96kHz) A Harman proprietary technology, Logic 7 enhances two-channel and matrixencoded recordings by deriving separate information for the surround back channels. It provides more accurate placement of sound, improves panning and expands the sound field, even when used with 5.1-channel systems. Logic 7 technology uses 96kHz processing and is available in 5.1 mode. Three variants are available. See below Especially suited to two-channel sources containing Dolby Surround or matrix encoding, Logic 7 Movie mode increases center-channel intelligibility. • Analog (two-channel) • Tuner • PCM (32kHz, 44.1kHz, 48kHz, 96kHz) The AVR is programmed at the factory to default to this mode for twochannel signals. Logic 7 Music mode is well suited to conventional twochannel music recordings. • Analog (two-channel) • Tuner • PCM (32kHz, 44.1kHz, 48kHz, 96kHz) Use Logic 7 Game mode to enhance enjoyment of video-game consoles. • Analog (two-channel) • Tuner • PCM (32kHz, 44.1kHz, 48kHz, 96kHz) 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 (two-channel) • Tuner • PCM (32kHz, 44.1kHz, 48kHz, 96kHz) Turns off all surround processing and plays a pure 2-channel signal or a downmix of a multichannel signal. The signal is digitized and bass management settings are applied, making it appropriate when a subwoofer is used. • Analog (two-channel; DSP downmix available for multichannel) • Tuner • PCM (32kHz, 44.1kHz, 48kHz, 96kHz) 33
