RSP-1580 SURROUND SOUND PROCESSOR
Dolby Digital/TrueHD discs
Dolby Digital Surround EX discs
Dolby Digital decoding is auto-detected and cannot be overridden. You
may, however, select a 2-channel downmix of 5.1 channel recordings.
In a 6.1 or 7.1 channel system, you can also choose Dolby Surround
EX, Dolby Pro Logic IIx Music, Dolby Pro Logic IIx Cinema (7.1 channel
only), or Rotel XS processing for center back channels.
Note:
In addition to the options that follow, you can press the 2CH button
on the remote to toggle between 2-channel downmix and multichannel
playback.

the Left/Right buttons to step through five options: DD 2.0 channel
downmix, DD 5.1 channel, DD Surround EX center back processing,
DD with Pro Logic IIx Music center back processing or DD with Rotel
XS center back processing. You should typically select Surround EX
or discs that are labeled Dolby Digital Surround EX. For standard
5.1 channel discs, Dolby Pro Logic IIx Music or Rotel XS processing
will provide a more diffuse surround effect than the more highly
localized Dolby EX decoding and will probably be the better 6.1
channel options for non-Surround EX discs. Selecting DD 5.1 forces
the center back channel processing off for conventional 5.1 channel
playback. You can also repeatedly press the DOLBY PLIIx Mode
button on the front panel until the desired center back channel
option is selected.

Logic IIx Cinema back channel processing, or DD with Rotel XS
center back processing. You should typically select Surround EX
or discs that are labeled Dolby Digital Surround EX. For standard
5.1 channel discs, Dolby Pro Logic IIx Music or Rotel XS processing
will provide a more diffused surround effect than the more highly
localized Dolby EX decoding and may be the better 7.1 channel
options for non-Surround EX discs. Selecting DD 5.1 forces the
center back channel processing off for conventional 5.1 channel
playback. You can also repeatedly press the DOLBY PLIIx Mode
button on the front panel until the desired center back channel
option is selected.
