DTS-ES ON/OFF setting mode (VSX-
D810S/D850S only)
This setting allows you to hear surround back channels
on DTS disc regardless of whether the disc itself is a 5.1
Ch disc or a 6.1 Ch disc. Naturally you need to hook up
surround back speakers (see p. 13) and set them properly
(see below on this page) in order to hear surround back
channels. If you choose ON you will hear surround back
channels with DTS discs. If you choose OFF you will not.
Choose DTS-ES ON or OFF by using the %
or fi buttons.
MEMO:
• If you choose none for the surround back speakers setting
later on this page you won't be able to select ON here.
• You'll only get surround back channel sound when
the receiver is in STANDARD mode (see p. 27-29),
DTS-ES is set to ON and the disc is a DTS 5.1/6.1
channel disc.
