Main Menu
The ' Main Menu ' is designed for adjustments to the
decoder which are only occasionally required for daily
listening; perhaps to allow for temporary changes in the
listening room, or to compensate for unique characteris-
tics of a special listening source.
To open the ' Main Menu ' press the remote control button

briefly, or the button on the
decoder’s front panel.
Listening mode:
At this menu point you can select the decoder’s playback
mode or sound field which you wish to use.
The decoder
'remembers' your chosen setting for each input, and
selects it every time you switch to that input.
Surround
The decoder detects an encoded
digital
multi-channel signal, decodes it and passes it to all the
output channels. The front panel screen displays the
current decoder mode. If the signal is
analogue , the
decoder always uses Dolby Pro Logic II decoding.
Stereo Even if a multi-channel signal is detected, the
decoder converts it into a stereo signal, i.e. all channel
information is mixed down and sent to the main left and
right loudspeakers.
Mono All channels are mixed down onto the center
loudspeaker channel.
Mono I Mode for two-channel TV sound
Generally Channel I transmits the synchronised sound.
The signal from Channel I is reproduced via the Centre
loudspeaker *);
Channel II (original sound) is suppres-
sed.
Mono II Mode for two-channel TV sound
Generally Channel II transmits the original sound. The
signal from Channel II is reproduced via the Centre
loudspeaker *);
Channel I (original sound) is suppres-
sed.
Note:
*) If no Centre speaker is present (see ' Loudspeaker
Menu ' ), the Centre channel is mixed onto the left and
right main speakers.
Not all signal sources (DVDs, CDs etc.), which are Dolby
Digital or dts Digital Surround encoded contain full 5.1
information. Even if the screen indicates that a particular
channel is present, this does not necessarily mean that
the loudspeaker in question will always produce sound.
In every playback mode signals may be present on the
subwoofer channel; this depends on the loudspeaker
arrangement you have selected in the
' Speaker Setup '.
Sound fields:
Disco This sound field is particularly suitable for pro-
viding an even spread of sound over a dance floor, using
the front and surround loudspeakers. The sound signal is
mixed and passed to the front and surround speakers
without reflections and delays, and with equal power.
The strongly concentrated sound reproduction generates
an immediate, energy-charged atmosphere which is a
great choice for any party.
Hall Reverberant concert hall with sound reflections
from all directions. Ideal for playing back recordings of
large orchestras, or simulating the live atmosphere of a
large rock concert hall - an excellent choice for very
dynamic rock music.
Theatre This program combines clear voice reproduc-
tion with the full sound of an orchestra, but without exag-
gerated reverberation. The spatial sound towards the
rear is slightly limited, in the interests of better orienta-
tion.
Stadium This sound image concentrates the “pres-
ence” in the front area, helping to localise commentators
and dialogues on the screen. Sound from the rear is
designed to give the impression of being amongst the
spectators in the stadium. This sound field is also suit-
able for TV shows and music programmes.
Club The characteristic atmosphere of a cellar jazz
club, with a pattern of reflections dominated by large
floor and wall surfaces. Also good for simulating small
halls.
Church Simulation of the acoustic conditions in a large
church, with long reverberation times. This sound field is
an excellent choice for sacred organ music.
