Most DVD-Videos have more than one surround sound format contained on the disc. The most common formats are DTS, Dolby Digital and Dolby Digital Stereo.

Once you have selected a surround sound format via the DVD-Video’s menu (see Using DVD-Video and DVD-Audio menus in the Playing Discs chapter), the UNIDISK SC allows you to further amend the audio mode in order to restrict the number of speakers used, if desired.

The options available are:

Audio mode

Speakers used

DTS Full*

Requires 5.1 channels (five full-range speakers plus subwoofer)

 

As Mix

As many speakers as are available (up to 6)

 

3 Stereo

Fronts and centre (plus subwoofer if available)

Phantom

Fronts and surrounds (plus subwoofer if available)

 

Stereo

Stereo + Sub

*Available only for discs featuring DTS format.

To cycle through the available audio modes:

Repeatedly press SURR (surround) on the handset. The audio modes are shown on the front panel display.

Notes:

All above audio modes, with the exception of DTS Full, are available when listening to a CD or an auxiliary source.

For Dolby Digital stereo discs you must set the Dolby PL option in the setup menus to On (see Setup Menus chapter).
