[] FEATURES
1. Dolby Digital decoder
Doiby Digital, a digital discrete system in which the
different channels are completely independent, recreates
"three-dimensional" sound fields (sounds with a sense of
distance, movement and position) with no crosstaik
between channels for greater reality. In addition, the 5
channels (excluding the 0.1 channel for low frequency
effects) have a playback range extending to 20 kHz, the
same as the range of CDs, thus resulting in clearer, more
richly expressive sound.
2. Dolby Pro Logic ill decoder
Dolby Pro Logic l]Lis a new format for playing multichannel
audio signals that offers improvements over conventional
Dolby Pro Logic. It can be used to decode not only sources
recorded in Dolby Surround but also regular stereo sources
into five channels (front left/right, center and surround
left/right). In addition, various parameters can be set
according to the type of source and the contents, so you
can adjust the sound field with greater precision.
3. DTS (Digital Theater Systems)
DTS provides up to 5.1 channels of wide-range, high
fidelity surround sound, from sources such as laser disc,
DVD and specially-encoded music discs.
4. High performance DSP simulates 7 sound fields
Playback is possible in 7 surround modes: 5-channel
Stereo, Mono Movie, Rock Arena, Jazz Club, Video Game,
Matrix and Virtual. You can enjoy a variety of sound effects
for different movie scenes and program sources even with
stereo sources not in Dolby Surround.

Memory. With Personal Memory Plus, the set

mode for each of the separate input sources.
