They bring the exciting and powerful sound of concert halls into your home. x Hall (HALL) Reproduces the acoustics of a classical concert hall. x Jazz Club (JAZZ) Reproduces the acoustics of a jazz club. x Live Concert (CONCERT) Reproduces the acoustics of a 300-seat live house. x Stadium (STADIUM) Reproduces the feeling of a large open-air stadium. x Sports (SPORTS) Reproduces the feeling of sports broadcasting. x Portable Audio (PORTABLE) Reproduces a clear enhanced sound image from your portable audio device. This mode is ideal for MP3 and other compressed music. x PLII Music Performs Dolby Pro Logic II Music mode decoding. This setting is ideal for normal stereo sources such as CDs. x Neo:6 Music (Neo:6 MUS) Performs DTS Neo:6 Music mode decoding. A source recorded in 2 channel format is decoded into 5 channels. This setting is ideal for normal stereo sources such as CDs. When headphones are connected You can only select this sound field if the headphones are connected to the receiver. x Headphone (2ch) (HP 2CH) This mode is selected automatically if you use headphones (except "Analog Direct"). Standard 2 channel stereo sources completely bypass the sound field processing and multi channel surround formats are downmixed to 2 channels except LFE signals. x Headphone (Direct) (HP DIRECT) This mode is selected automatically if you use headphones when "Analog Direct" is selected. Outputs the analog signals without processing by the equalizer, sound field, etc. If you connect a subwoofer This receiver will generate a low frequency signal for output to the subwoofer when there is no LFE signal, which is a low-pass sound effect output from a subwoofer to a 2 channel signal. However, the low frequency signal is not generated for "Neo:6 Cinema" or "Neo:6 Music" when all speakers are set to "Large". In order to take full advantage of the Dolby Digital bass redirection circuitry, we recommend setting the subwoofer's cut off frequency as high as possible. Notes on sound fields • Depending on the speaker pattern settings, some sound fields may not be available. 44GB
