If you’ve selected DTS > PCM in DTS Out on page 46 or 2 Channel in Audio Output Mode below section, you can choose the way the signal is downmixed to PCM audio. Stereo will downmix the DTS signal to 2-channel stereo, whereas Lt/Rt will downmix to a 2-channel sig- nal compatible with Dolby surround matrix decoders. (This allows you to hear surround sound if your AV receiver or amplifier has Dolby Pro Logic capability.)

Notes:

Even if you set Audio Output Mode to 5.1 Channel, you’ll only get sound from all speakers when playing a 5.1 channel multichannel disc.

When set to 5.1 Channel, only the front left/right channels are output from the AUDIO OUT (2ch) jacks. Change to 2 Channel if you want to listen to downmixed stereo audio (for example, because you are listening through the TV’s built-in speakers).

When set to 5.1 Channel there is no digital output when playing DVD-Audio.

If you set to 2 Channel, Dolby Digital, DTS and MPEG audio is mixed down to two channels so you still hear all the audio recorded on the disc. With DTS encoded audio, you can choose how the signal is downmixed to PCM audio. See DTS Downmix above to change the downmix setting.

Some DVD-Audio discs don’t allow downmixing of audio. These discs always output multi-channel audio regardless of the setting made here.

ENTER

• You can see the effect of your changes in the room graphic on the right of the screen.

Except for the subwoofer, you can set speaker size to Large or Small. If the main speaker cone in the speaker is 12cm or more, set to Large, otherwise set to Small (or Off if you don’t have that speaker).

If you set the front L and R speakers to Small, the center and surround speak- ers are automatically set to Small and the subwoofer to On.

The subwoofer can only be set to On or Off.
