5.1 Decoder Module 3 | Re:source |
Matrix
This parameter primarily increases the surround effect for programmes sources recorded in stereo sound, by using an elaborate Dolby Matrix decoder.
Spatial
This is a living sound picture, which was developed in the Revox sound studios. It emulates a small hall where you might expect to hear some live jazz or chamber music. For this reason, Spatial is particularly well suited for listening to this or similar music types.
With this stereo sound, the stereo signal is also sent to the rear surround speakers but as a mirror image. This means that you have stereo reproduction between each pair of speaker.
With a square layout, this can give a fantastic feeling of space.
Stereo
Additionally, it is possible to listen to music in pure stereo with out the influence of any room sound program. In the lower display field this is
indicated with 
.
In this case, the audio cables are connected directly to the outputs on an ultra linear amplifier path.
If, however, you want to modify the treble and bass settings in stereo mode, this will take you out of the ultra linear path.
Playback is then done through a DSP as shown by the 
display field at the bottom of the screen.
All surround speakers are deactivated in this function and are therefore shown as light symbols on the display.
