The surround sound of the machine lets you enjoy the presence of a movie theater or concert hall in your room. Before using any sound effect, make sure the Speaker Setup configurations have been set correctly.

The speaker configuration is very important for the surround sound. See “Connecting Speakers” and “Positioning Speakers”. Following are the sound systems the machine can reproduce.

DOLBY DIGITAL Surround and DTS (Digital Theater System) Surround

This 5.1-channel digital surround format lets you individually play five full-range (20Hz-20kHz) channels (left and right front, center, two surround channels) plus an LFE(Low Frequency Effect) channel for the low-range effect sound.

It creates a realistic sound like that heard in theaters and concert halls.

DTS Surround

You can play a specific title, chapter, track or segment repeatedly (Title repeat, chapter/track repeat, all tracks and A-B repeat).

DOLBY DIGITAL Surround

DVD videos that have the mark are recorded using this format.

This surround format consists of four channels (left and right front, center, and monaural surround channel) and emphasizes the center channel. This format is very effective for panning music, conversation, and three- dimensional sound movement output from three front channels. It also simulates the atmosphere and surround effects of the sound reflected from the side and rear walls of the theater.

VHS, VHS Hi-Fi, video disc, and DVD videos that have the mark are recorded using this system.

Pro-logic II is new surround method to overcome the limit of Pro-logic.

Pro-logic II can change stereo signal to 5.1 channels, beside Pro-logic can change stereo signal to 4.1 channels. Surround channel is separate from mono to stereo and has unlimited frequency band width.

DVD videos, video discs, and CDs that have the mark are recorded using this format.

To play back DTS Surround sound with connected equipment such as a video disc player, you must make the digital connection in addition to the above speaker configuration.

Notes : DTS Surround

If you play a DTS Surround encoded disc with the DTS, or a DTS encoded disc using a digitally connected player, you may hear a noise for a short while until the DTS decoder of the machine recognizes the DTS encoded signal and starts operating. This is not a malfunction.

If you play in fast reverse or fast forward, pause, or skip a chapter or track, while playing a DTS Surround source, noise may be heard. This is not a malfunction.

Even when playback of the DTS Surround source stops and the DTS signal transmission ends, the machine remains in DTS mode and the DTS indicator remains lit. This is to prevent noise when you pause, fast forward, fast reverse, or skip a chapter or track of the playback source. Therefore, if the source switches from the DTS signal to a 2CH DOWN MIX(2 channel digital stereo) signal immediately, the 2CH DOWN MIX signal may not be played.

Some CD players (if connected to the machine) and video disc players may be unable to play DTS Surround sources correctly even if you connect the player to the machine digitally. In such a case, the digital signals (such as the output level, sampling frequency, frequency response, etc.) processed by the player cannot be recognized as DTS data by the machine and you may hear noise instead of the proper sound.
