Mini Glossary for Audio Stream &
Surround mode

Allows you to enjoy 5.1(or 6) discrete channels of high quality
digital audio from DTS program sources such as discs, DVD
and compact discs, etc.bearing the trademark. DTS Digital
Surround delivers up to 6 channels of transparent audio(which
means identical to the original masters) and results in excep-
tional clarity throughout a true 360 degree sound field. The
term DTS is a trademark of DTS Technology, LLC.
Manufactured under license from DTS Technology, LLC.

The Dolby Digital surround format lets you enjoy up to 5.1
channels of digital surround sound from a Dolby Digital pro-
gram source. If you play DVDs with “

” mark, you can enjoy

even better sound quality, greater spatial accuracy, and
improved dynamic range.

Use this mode when playing movie or Dolby Digital 2 channel

which carries the “

” mark. This mode provides the effect

of being in a movie theatre or live concert house-an effect with
an intensity which can only be obtained through DOLBY PRO
LOGIC SURROUND. The effect of the front/back/left/right
movement of the sound image, as well as the sense of fixed
position in the sound image, is much clearer and more dynam-
ic than before.

Dolby Pro Logic II creates five full-bandwidth output channels
from two-channel sources. This is done using an advanced,
high-purity matrix surround decoder that extracts the spatial
properties of the original recording without adding any new
sounds or tonal colorations.

MOVIE mode:

The Movie mode is for use with stereo television shows and all
programs encoded in Dolby Surround. The result is enhanced
soundfield directionality that approaches the quality of discrete
5.1-channel sound.

MUSIC mode:

The Music mode is for use with any stereo music recordings,
and provides a wide and deep sound space. The Music mode
includes controls that allow the sound to be tailored to individual
listening tastes.

MATRIX mode:

The Matrix mode is the same as the Music mode except that the
directional enhancement logic is turned off. It may be used to
enhance mono signals by making them seem “larger.” The Matrix
mode may also find use in auto systems, where the fluctuations
from poor FM stereo reception can otherwise cause disturbing
surround signals from a logic decoder. The ultimate “cure” for
poor FM stereo reception may be simply to force the audio to
mono.

3D SURROUND

This unit can produce a 3D Surround effect, using 3D Surround
Sound technology, which simulates multi-channel audio play-
back from two conventional stereo speakers instead of the five
or more speakers normally required to listen to multi-channel
audio from a home theatre. This feature works with DVD discs
encoded with Dolby Pro Logic and Dolby Digital audio tracks.

BYPASS

Software with multichannel surround audio signals is played
according to the way it was recorded.

Sound Mode

You can enjoy surround sound simply by selecting one
of the pre-programmed sound fields according to the
program you want to listen to.
