[Audio DRC]
You can compress the dynamic range of
the sound track.
[Auto]: Automatically compresses
sound encoded in Dolby TrueHD.
[On]: The system reproduces the dolby
sound track with the kind of dynamic
range that the recording engineer
intended.
[Off]: No compression of dynamic
range.
[Audio Output]
You can select the output method used
for audio signal output.
[Speaker]: Outputs multi-channel sound
from the system’s speakers only.
[S HDMI]: The sound is output
from the speaker of the TV and the
system’s speakers. The sound quality of
the playback device depends on the
sound quality of the TV (number of
channels, sampling frequency, etc.). If
the TV has stereo speakers, the sound
output from the system's speaker is in
the same stereo as the TV, even when
playing back multi-channel source.
When [Audio Output] is set to [S
HDMI] while the [HDMI1], [HDMI2] or
[HDMI3] input is selected, the On-Screen
Display (OSD) of the system is not
displayed and the OPTIONS and DISPLAY
buttons do not work.
[Sound Effect]
You can turn on/off the sound effect
such as the sound field.
[Sound Field On]: Enables all sound
effects.
[Off]: Disables the sound effects. Select
this when you do not want to set the
upper limit of sampling frequency.
[Audio Upmix]
You can give a priority to one of the
upmixing settings. The upmix
technology increases the number of
channels on the source.
[Dolby Surround]: The Dolby Surround
upmixer expands the audio contents to
multi channels. It can be played on the
multi channel speaker including height
speakers.
[Neural:X]: Neural:X is the latest
upmixing technology from DTS that
expands the stereo 5.1 channel and 7.1
channel to multi channels. It can be
played on the multi channel speaker
including height speakers.
• [Dolby Surround] has priority when the
input format is Dolby. [Neural:X] has
priority when the input format is DTS.
• There may be no sound for height
speakers depending on the sound field.
[Bluetooth Mode]
You can enjoy content from a
BLUETOOTH device by using this system
or listen to sound from this system by
using BLUETOOTH-compatible
headphones.
[Receiver]: This system is in receiver
mode, which enables it to receive and
output audio from the BLUETOOTH
device.
[Transmitter]: This system is in
transmitter mode, which enables it to
send audio to the BLUETOOTH-
compatible headphones. If you switch
the input of the system, “BT TX” appears
on the front panel display.

off and you cannot select the [Bluetooth
Audio] input. Note
