• Turn the selection knob until the desired Surround Sound mode is
displayed.
⇒ Automatic – The AMS will automatically select the Surround
Sound mode based on the selected input.
⇒ Stereo – Sound is processed into left and right front channels.
⇒ Dolby PLII(x) Movie – This setting is for use with VCRs,
television shows, and all programs encoded in Dolby Surround.
The result is an enhanced soundfield that approaches the quality of
discrete 7.1-channel sound.
⇒ Dolby PLII(x) Music – This setting is for use with any stereo
music recordings, and provides a wide and deep sound space.
⇒ DTS Neo:6 Cinema – This setting is optimum for playing movies.
Decoding is performed with emphasis on separation performance
to achieve the same atmosphere with 2-channel sources as with
6.1-channel sources. This setting is effective for playing sources
recorded in conventional surround formats as well, because the in-
phase component is assigned mainly to the center channel and the
reversed phase component to the surround (left, right, and back)
channels.
⇒ DTS Neo:6 Music – This setting is suited mainly for playing
music. The front (left and right) channel signals bypass the decoder
and are played directly, so there is no loss of sound quality, and the
effect of the surround signals output from the center and the
surround (left, right, and back) channels add a natural sense of
expansion to the sound field.
⇒ 2 Channel Surround – This setting is used to play stereo source
material in its pure unprocessed form. The signal is steered to the
surround speakers.
⇒ 2-Channel-Rear – This setting is used to play stereo source
material in its pure unprocessed form. The signal is steered to the
rear speakers.
⇒ Multi-Channel Stereo – Steers the left and right audio signals to
all of the theater speakers.
