ENGLISH NAMES AND FUNCTIONS BASIC CONNECTIONS BASIC OPERATION ADVANCED CONNECTIONS 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 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. CSII Cinema mode This mode is suited for playing back Circle Surroundencoded and non-encoded film and television soundtracks. Cinema Mode enables 6.1-channel surround playback of 2-channel sources such as Video Cassettes, TV broadcasts, streaming media and DVDs. CSII Music mode This mode is suited for playing back Circle Surroundencoded and non-encoded music. Music Mode decodes, music DVDs, radio and TV music broadcasts and CDs into enveloping 6.1-channel surround. CSII-Mono mode This mode plays back monaural recordings from any source, including CDs, DVDs and TV and radio broadcasts in compelling 6.1-channel surround. Notes: • CS II mode is available for 2ch input signals which are encoded in Dolby Digital or PCM format. • PCM-audio signals can be subjected to CS II processing when the sampling frequency is 32 kHz, 44.1 kHz or 48 kHz. 40 STEREO This mode bypasses all surround processing. In stereo program sources, the left and right channels play normally when PCM-audio or analog stereo is input. With Dolby Digital and DTS sources, the 5.1 multichannels are converted to two channel stereo. 96 kHz PCM source material can be played back in stereo mode. VIRTUAL This mode creates a virtualized surround sound experience from a two-speaker (front L and R) playback system playing any multichannel audio source (such as found on DVDs and digital broadcasts), including Dolby Digital, Dolby Pro Logic or DTS. MULTI CH. ST This mode is used to create a wider, deeper and more natural soundstage from two channel source material. This is done by feeding the left channel signal to both left front and left surround speaker and the right channel signal to both right front and right surround speaker. Additionally, the center channel reproduces a mix of the right and left channel. CAUTION NOTE for DTS signal * Connected DVD player, laserdisc player or CD player needs to support DTS digital output. You may not be able to play some DTS source signals from certain CD players and LD players even if you connect the player to this unit digitally. This is because the digital signal has been processed (such as the output level, sampling frequency or frequency response), and this unit cannot recognize the signal as DTS data. * You can not listen to DTS-encoded software in a multiroom. * Depending on the player used, DTS play may produce a short noise. This is not a malfunction. * While signals from a DTS laserdisc or CD are playing in another surround mode, you cannot switch to digital input or from digital input to analog input from the INPUT SETUP in the MAIN MENU or by pressing the A/D button. * The outputs for VCR 1 OUT, DSS/VCR 2 OUT, TAPE OUT, and CD-R OUT output analog audio signals only. Do not record from CDs or LDs that support DTS using these outputs. If you do, the DTS-encoded signal will be recorded as noise. NOTE for Dolby Digital Surround EX signal * When playing Dolby Digital Surround EX-encoded software in 6.1 channels, it is required to set the EX/ES mode. * Note that some of Dolby Digital Surround EX-encoded software does not contain the identification signal. In this case, set the EX/ES mode manually. NOTE for 96 kHz/192 kHz PCM audio * The AUTO, Pure Direct, and Stereo modes can be used when playing PCM signals with a sampling frequency of 96/192 kHz (such as from DVDVideo/Audio discs). * Certain DVD player models inhibit digital output. For details, refer to the player's operation manual. * Some DVD discs feature copy protection. When using such disc, 96 kHz PCM signal is not output from the DVD player. For details, refer to the player's operation manual. NOTE for HDCD signal * HDCD is effective only through digital input. * You may not be able to play some HDCD source signals from certain CD players if you connect the player to this unit digitally. This is because the digital signal has been processed (such as the output level, sampling frequency or frequency response) and this unit cannot recognize the signal as HDCD data.

DTS brings you premium quality discrete multichannel digital sound to both movies and music. DTS is a multichannel sound system designed to create full range digital sound reproduction. The no compromise DTS digital process sets the standard of quality for cinema sound by delivering an exact copy of the studio master recordings to neighborhood and home theaters. Now, every moviegoer can hear the sound exactly as the moviemaker intended. DTS can be enjoyed in the home for either movies or music on of DVD's, LD's, and CD's. • dts Neo:6 The advantages of discrete multichannel systems over matrix are well known. But even in homes equipped for discrete multichannel, there remains a need for high-quality matrix decoding. This is because of the large library of matrix surround motion pictures available on disc and on VHS tape; and analog television broadcasts. The typical matrix decoder of today derives a center channel and a mono surround channel from twochannel matrix stereo material. It is better than a simple matrix in that it includes steering logic to improve separation, but because of its mono, bandlimited surround it can be disappointing to users accustomed to discrete multichannel. Neo:6 offers several important improvements as follow, • Neo:6 provides up to six full-band channels of matrix decoding from stereo matrix material. Users with 6.1 and 5.1 systems will derive six and five separate channels, respectively, corresponding to the standard home-theater speaker layouts. SETUP ADVANCED OPERATION TROUBLESHOOTING OTHERS
