DTHD (Dolby Audio - TrueHD)
„
This mode faithfully reproduces the sound design recorded in the Dolby TrueHD
audio format.
The Dolby TrueHD audio format is a "lossless" format expanded based on the
lossless compression technology referred to as MLP, and it faithfully reproduces
the master audio recorded in the studio. Dolby TrueHD is an optional audio
format based on 5.1 ch for Blu-ray Discs. It is possible to record a maximum of
7.1 channels with additional channels such as the surround back channel. 7.1 ch
is recorded at 96 kHz/24 bit, and 5.1 ch is recorded at 192 kHz/24 bit.
• To enable transfer of this audio format, connect via an HDMI cable and set
the audio output on the player to Bitstream output.
„ Drama
Suitable for TV shows produced in a TV studio. This mode enhances the
surround effects to the entire sound to give clarity to voices and create a realistic
acoustic image.
„ DSD
This mode is suitable for playing sources recorded in DSD.
• This unit supports the DSD signal input from the HDMI input terminal.
However, depending on the connected player, better sound may be obtained
by setting the output on the player side to the PCM output.
• This listening mode cannot be selected if the output setting on your Blu-ray
Disc/DVD player is not set to DSD.
„ Ent.Show (Entertainment Show)
Suitable for rock or pop music. Listening to music in this mode creates a lively
sound field with a powerful acoustic image, like being at a club or rock concert.
„ Ext.Stereo (Extended Stereo)
This mode is ideal for background music. Stereo sound is played through the
surround speakers as well as the front speakers, creating a stereo image.
„ F.S.Surround (Front Stage Surround)
In this mode, you can enjoy a virtual playback of multichannel surround sound
even with only two or three speakers. This works by controlling how sounds
reach the listener's left and right ears.
• This mode cannot be selected when "Speaker Virtualizer" ( →p61) is set to
"Off" (Default: On).
