button will display the mode currently selected
by the AVR´s decoder. Depending on the surround
material played and the speaker setting, one of
the following modes will be selected by the unit:
• DTS-ES 6.1 DISCRETE
• DTS-ES 6.1 MATRIX
• DTS + NEO:6
• DTS 5.1
Both DTS ES 6.1 Modes and DTS+NEO:6 will be
selected only when surround back speakers have
been configured with your system: DISCRETE
with appropriate source material, MATRIX with
6.1 Matrix recordings and DTS+NEO:6 with nor-
mal DTS 5.1 channel recordings. The DTS 5.1
mode will be selected with any DTS source, when
no surround back speakers are configured (see
also pages 24 and 32-35).
