USING THE T 747 – MAIN MENU

LISTENING MODE

The T 747 offers eleven distinct listening modes, tailored for different types
of recording or program material. With a two-channel (Stereo) source, the
following listening modes can be selected:
STEREO
All output is directed to the front left/right channels. Low frequencies are
directed to the subwoofer if one is present in the Speaker settings. Select
"Stereo" when you wish to listen to a stereo (or monaural) production, such
as music CD or FM broadcast, without surround enhancement. Stereo
recordings whether in PCM/digital or analog form and whether surround-
encoded or not encoded, are reproduced as recorded. Multi-channel digital
recordings (Dolby Digital and DTS) are reproduced in "Stereo Downmix"
mode via the front left/right channels only as Lt/Rt (left/right-total) signals.
DOLBY® VIRTUAL SPEAKER (DVS)
Dolby Virtual Speaker technology creates a highly compelling 5.1-channel
listening experience from as few as two speakers, making it an ideal
entertainment solution for locations where space for multiple-speaker
setups is limited.
Dolby Virtual Speaker models the sound of a playback system into two
different listening environments, based on acoustic measurements of real
rooms:
DVS Reference is a small, well-damped room appropriate for both movies
and music-only recordings.
DVS Wide is a larger room, more like a concert hall or movie theatre.
PRO LOGIC IIx
Dolby Pro Logic IIx processes both stereo and 5.1 signals into a 6.1 or 7.1
channel output. At Dolby Pro Logic IIx, you can choose PLIIx Movie or PLIIx
Music modes to tailor your listening experience to the source material.
Dolby Pro Logic IIx surround processing yields more stable imaging
and full bandwidth sound to the rear channels in Movie mode offering
sound that is more similar to Dolby Digital decoding. For two channel
signals, Dolby Pro Logic IIx Music mode also features three additional user
controls - Dimension, Center Width, and Panorama. See also section about
"ADJUSTING LISTENING MODES" below.
The following chart shows the channels available assuming they are
enabled in the "Speaker Configuration" menu.
