Glossary
for Audio Stream &
Surround mode
Allows you to enjoy 5.1(or 6) discrete channels of
high quality digi-
tal audio from
DTS program
sources
such
as
discs, DVD and
compact discs, etc.bearing
the trademark. DTS
Digital
Surround
delivers up to 6 channels of
transparent audio(which
means
identi-
cal to the
original masters)
and results in
exceptional clarity
throughout
a
true 360 degree sound field. The term
DTS is
a
trademark of DTS
Technology,
LLC. Manufactured under license
from
DTS
Technology,
LLC.
The
Dolby Digital
surround format lets you
enjoy
up
to 5.1 chan-
nels of digital surround sound from
a
Dolby Digital
program
source.
If
you
play
DVDs with
"
"
mark,
you can
enjoy
even
better sound quality, greater spatial
accuracy,
and improved
dynamic
range.
Use this mode
when
playing movie
or
Dolby Digital
2 channel
which carries the
" "
mark. This mode provides the effect of
being
in
a
movie theatre
or
live concert house-an effect with
an
intensity
which
can
only
be obtained
through
DOLBY PRO LOGIC
SURROUND. The effect of the
front/back/left/right movement
of
the sound image,
as
well
as
the
sense
of fixed position in the
sound image, is
much clearer and
more
dynamic
than
before.
(II)
Dolby
Pro
Logic
II creates five full-bandwidth
output
channels from
two-channel
sources.
This is done
using
an
advanced, high-purity
matrix surround decoder that extracts the
spatial properties
of the
original recording without adding
any
new
sounds
or
tonal col-
orations.
MOVIE mode:
The Movie mode is for
use
with stereo television shows and all pro-
grams
encoded in
Dolby
Surround. The result is enhanced sound-
field directionality that approaches the quality of discrete 5.1-chan-
nel sound.
MUSIC mode:
The Music mode is for
use
with any stereo music
recordings,
and
provides
a
wide and deep sound space. The Music mode includes
controls that allow the sound
to
be tailored
to
individual
listening
tastes.
MATRIX mode:
The Matrix mode is the
same as
the Music mode
except
that the
directional enhancement logic is turned off. It may be used to
enhance
mono
signals by making
them
seem
"larger."
The Matrix
mode may also find
use
in auto
systems,
where the fluctuations
from poor FM
stereo reception
can
otherwise
cause
disturbing
sur-
round
signals
from
a
logic
decoder. The ultimate "cure" for poor FM
stereo reception may be simply to force the audio to
mono.
3D SURROUND
This unit
can
produce
a
3D Surround effect,
using
3D Surround
Sound
technology,
which simulates multi-channel audio
playback
from two conventional stereo speakers instead of the five
or more
speakers normally required to listen
to multi-channel
audio from
a
home theatre. This feature works with DVD discs encoded with
Dolby
Pro
Logic
and
Dolby Digital
audio tracks.
BYPASS
Software with multichannel surround audio signals is played
according to
the way it
was
recorded.
Sound Mode

surround sound
simply by selecting
one
of the
pre-programmed
sound fields
according to
the
program you
want to
listen
to.

until the sound mode you
want appears in the
