[2] 2-channel mode settings
• When 2-channel signals are input, one of two playback modes can be selected and set according to the 2-
channel mode setting, Virtual 1 or Virtual 2. (The Virtual 1 mode is set by factory default.)
Virtual 1 : 2-channel sources are played in virtual surround using Dolby Pro Logic
II
Cinema processing.

NOTES:
• The 2-channel mode cannot be set when Dolby
Digital or DTS 5.1-channel signals.
• The 2-channel mode is set and stored in the
memory individually for the different functions.

Set the surround mode to “DOLBY VIRTUAL
SPEAKER” (“DOLBY VS”).
• The normal display reappears after the
surround mode is displayed.

Press the SURROUND PARAMETER button and
select the 2-channel mode.
VS VIRTUAL1
This can be selected if there is no digital input
signal, if the digital input is a PCM or Dolby
Digital 2-channel signal and if the input is
analog.

VIRTUAL1 (Virtual 1 mode):
In this mode, 2-channel sources are played with
Dolby Pro Logic
II
Cinema processing. This mode
is suited for playing movie sources recorded in
Dolby Surround and regular stereo sources.
VIRTUAL2 (Virtual 2 mode):
In this mode, 2-channel sources are played with
Dolby Pro Logic processing. This mode is
compatible with regular Dolby Pro Logic playback.
With it, the recorded playback image of sources
recorded in Dolby Surround is recreated faithfully.

VIDEO GAME

5CH/6CH
STEREO
Use this to enjoy video game sources.
Use this mode to achieve the feeling of a live concert in an arena with reflected
sounds coming from all directions.
This mode creates the sound field of a live house with a low ceiling and hard walls.
This mode gives jazz a very vivid realism.
Select this to emphasize the sense of expansion for music sources recorded in
stereo. Signals consisting of the difference component of the input signals (the
component that provides the sense of expansion) processed for delay are output
from the surround channel.
In this mode, the signals of the front left channel are output from the left surround
channel, the signals of the front right channel are output from the right surround
channel, and the same (in-phase) component of the left and right channels is output
from the center channel. This mode provides all speaker surround sound, but
without directional steering effects, and works with any stereo program source.

DSP SURROUND SIMULATION
Surround modes and their features
• This unit is equipped with a high performance DSP (Digital Signal Processor) which uses digital signal
processing to synthetically recreate the sound field. One of 6 preset surround modes can be selected according
to the program source and the parameters can be adjusted according to the conditions in the listening room to
achieve a more realistic, powerful sound. These surround modes can also be used for program sources not
recorded in Dolby Surround Pro Logic, Dolby Digital or DTS.

MONO MOVIE
(NOTE 1)
Select this when watching monaural movies for a greater sense of expansion.
Depending on the program source being played, the effect may not be very noticeable.
In this case, try other surround modes, without worrying about their names, to create a sound field suited to
your tastes.
NOTE 1: When playing sources recorded in monaural, the sound will be one-sided if signals are only input to one
channel (left or right), so input signals to both channels. If you have a source component with only one
audio output (monophonic camcorder, etc.) obtain a “Y” adapter cable to split the mono output to two
outputs, and connect to the L and R inputs.
Personal Memory Plus
This set is equipped with a personal memorize function that automatically memorizes the surround modes
and input modes selected for the input different sources. When the input source is switched, the modes set
for that source last time it was used are automatically recalled.
The surround parameters, tone control settings and playback level balance for the different output
channels are memorized for each surround mode.
