Surround Mode
DTS Neo:6 DTS Neo:6 analog processing is available with DTS and DTS 96/24 signals and
Mode Group two-channel analog or PCM signals to create a 3-, 5- or 6-channel presentation.
DTS Neo:6 Depending on the number of speakers in your system, select 3-, 5- or 6-channel
Cinema modes, enhanced for movie or video presentations.
DTS Neo:6 Available only in 5- and 6-channel modes, creates a surround presentation
Music suitable for music recordings.
HARMAN NSP A HARMAN proprietary technology, NSP uses sophisticated digital processing to deliver
a true natural sounding three-dimensional listening experience from conventional
2-channel stereo sources like CDs and stereo broadcasts. While preserving the
recording's original timbre and spatial balance, HARMAN NSP creates a simulated
listening space that automatically adjusts to suit the type of program you are
listening to. Adjustments are available for the size of the simulated space and for
how aggressively NSP automatically adjusts the simulated space to compliment the
program material.
5-Channel Stereo Useful for parties, the left- and right-channel information is played through both
the front and surround speakers on each side, while the center speaker plays a
summed mono mix.
7-Channel Stereo Expands the 5-Channel Stereo presentation to include the surround back channels.
(AVR 1710S/
AVR 171S only)
2-Channel Stereo Turns off all surround processing and plays a pure two-channel signal or a downmix
of a multichannel signal. The signal is digitized and bass management settings are
applied, making it appropriate when a subwoofer is used.
