x Dolby Pro Logic II This technology converts 2ch stereo recorded audio into 5.1ch for playback. There is a MOVIE mode for movies and MUSIC mode for stereo sources such as music. Old movies encoded in the traditional stereo format can be enhanced with 5.1ch surround sound. x Dolby Pro Logic IIx Technology for 7.1ch (or 6.1ch) playback. Along with audio encoded in Dolby Digital Surround EX, 5.1ch Dolby Digital encoded audio can be reproduced in 7.1ch (or 6.1ch). Furthermore, existing stereo recorded content can also be reproduced in 7.1ch (or 6.1ch). x Dolby Surround (Dolby Pro Logic) Audio processing technology developed by Dolby Laboratories, Inc. Center and mono surround information is matrixed into two stereo channels. When reproduced, audio is decoded and output in 4ch surround sound. This is the most common audio processing method for DVD-video. x DTS 96/24 A high sound quality digital signal format. It records audio at a sampling frequency and bit rate of 96kHz/24bit which is the highest possible for DVD-video. The number of playback channels varies depending on the software. x DTS Digital Surround Digital audio encoding/decoding technology for theaters developed by Digital Theater Systems, Inc. It compresses audio less than Dolby Digital, delivering a higher quality sound reproduction. x DTS-ES Format for 6.1ch playback with surround back information. There are two modes, "Discrete 6.1" which records all channels independently, and "Matrix 6.1" which matrixes surround back channel into LS and RS channels. It is ideal for playback of motion picture soundtracks. x DTS Neo:6 This technology converts 2ch stereo recorded audio for 6.1ch playback. There are two modes to select according to the playback source or your preference, CINEMA for movies, and MUSIC for stereo sources such as music. x HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) HDMI is an interface that supports both video and audio on a single digital connection. The HDMI connection carries standard to high definition video signals and multi channel audio signals to audio/video components, such as HDMI equipped TVs, in digital form without degradation. The HDMI specification supports HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Contents Protection), a copy protection technology that incorporates coding technology for digital video signals. x Sampling frequency To convert analog audio to digital, analog data should be quantified. This process is called sampling, and the number of times per second the analog data is quantified is called the sampling frequency. A standard music CD stores data quantified at 44,100 times per second, which is expressed as a sampling frequency of 44.1 kHz. Generally speaking, a higher sampling frequency means better sound quality. x TSP (Time Stretched Pulse) A TSP signal is a highly precise measuring signal that utilizes impulse energy, measuring a wide band, from low to high, in a short period. The amount of energy used to measure signals is important to ensure measurement accuracy in a normal indoor environment. Using TSP signals makes it possible to measure signals effectively. 85US Additional Information
