Surround Mode Description
DTS Neo:6 Depending on the number of speakers in your system, select 3-, 5- or
Cinema 6-channel 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.
Logic 7 Exclusive to Harman Kardon, Logic 7 enhances 2-channel and matrix-encoded See below.
recordings by deriving separate information for the surround back channels.
This provides more accurate placement of sound, improves panning and
expands the sound field, even when used with 5.1-channel systems. Logic 7
uses 96kHz processing, and is available in 5.1- or 7.1-channel modes.
Logic 7 Especially suited to 2-channel sources containing Dolby Surround or matrix
Cinema encoding, Logic 7 Cinema mode increases center channel intelligibility.
Logic 7 The AVR 245 is programmed at the factory to default to this mode for
Music 2-channel signals. Logic 7 Music mode is well suited to conventional
2-channel music recordings.
Logic 7 Logic 7 Enhance circulates low frequencies in the 40Hz – 120Hz range to

solely with a subwoofer. Enhance mode is best used with music recordings.
Hall 1 Hall 1 is a DSP (digital signal processor) mode that simulates a small
concert hall. It is available in 5- or 6-channel versioins.
Hall 2 Simulates a medium-sized concert hall. It is available in 5- or 6-channel
versions.
Theater Simulates a live-performance theater. It is available in 5- or 6-channel
versions.
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.
DSP Surround Off Turns off all surround processing and plays a pure 2-channel signal.
The signal is digitized and bass management settings are applied, making it
appropriate when a subwoofer is used.
Surround Off Maintains an analog input signal in that form, bypassing all digital processing
(Analog Bypass) (i.e., surround and bass management). Requires TONE OUT setting.
