MODES PAGE

The Modes page provides Stage One post-processing adjustments and indi-
vidual buttons for selection of stereo direct, analog, and digital inputs.

Analog

Stereo

PL II
DTS Neo

Club

Analog
This button forces the Stage One to process from the analog input. The Stage
One will remain locked onto the analog input until you select a new source,
press the Digital button, or power it off.

Digital

Choosing Digital forces the Stage One to process from the digital input,
regardless of whether or not a digital signal is present for the currently select-
ed source. The Stage One will remain locked onto the digital input until you
select a new source, press the Analog button, or power it off.
Stereo
When an analog or PCM digital signal is present for the currently selected
source, pressing the Stereo button decodes the signal in two-channel stereo
and sets the default for analog and PCM signals on the particular input to
stereo. When a Dolby Digital or DTS signal is selected, pressing the Stereo
Button will cause the Stage One to downmix multi-channel soundtracks for
reproduction by just the front left and right speakers.
Digital

Direct

5 Ch St

Party

Mono

Direct
Pressing the Direct button forces the Stage One into Stereo Direct mode and
sets Stereo Direct as the default mode for the currently selected source.
Stereo Direct bypasses all digital processing, enabling the Stage One to act
as a stereo analog preamplifier while still allowing subwoofer operation.
PLII
Pressing the PLII button when the signal for the currently selected source is
analog, PCM digital, Dolby Digital 2.0 or DTS 2.0 causes the Stage One to
apply Dolby Pro Logic II decoding to the signal. The Stage One will automati-
cally apply Dolby Pro Logic II decoding to Dolby Digital 2.0 signals that are
flagged as Dolby Surround encoded. Pressing the PLII button also jumps the
remote to the Pro Logic Modes page, where you can adjust the currently
selected Dolby Pro Logic II mode.

DTS Neo:6

Pressing the DTS Neo:6 button when the signal for the currently selected
source is analog, PCM digital, Dolby Digital 2.0 or DTS 2.0 applies the DTS
Neo:6 surround processing algorithm.
Club
Pressing the Club button when the signal for the currently selected source is
analog, PCM digital, Dolby Digital 2.0 or DTS 2.0 applies Club-mode process-
ing.
Mono
Pressing the Mono button when the signal for the currently selected source is
analog, PCM digital, Dolby Digital, or DTS will downmix all channels to mono
and send the resulting signal to the center speaker or, if the system has no
center speaker, the left and right front speakers.
5 Ch St
Pressing the 5 Ch St button when the signal for the currently selected source
is analog, PCM digital, Dolby Digital 2.0 or DTS 2.0 applies 5-Channel Stereo
processing.
Party
Pressing the Party button when the signal for the currently selected source is
analog, PCM digital, Dolby Digital 2.0 or DTS 2.0 applies Party-mode pro-
cessing.
