Notes

The Pro Logic IIx decoder is not available when “SUR. B SP” is set to “NONE” (see page 79).

The Neural Surround decoder is compatible with the PCM signals (32 kHz, 44.1 kHz and 48 kHz) and the analog 2- channel input sources.

The Neural Surround decoder is not effective with any of the sound field programs.

When Neural Surround-incompatible signals are being input while the Neural Surround decoder is selected, multi-channel sources are decoded straight into the appropriate channels without any additional effect processing and the Neural Surround-incompatible PCM signals are played back in stereo.
