Notes

Some 6.1-channel compatible discs do not have a signal (flag) which this unit can automatically detect. When playing these kinds of discs with 6.1-channel, select decoders (PLIIxMovie, PLIIxMusic, EX/ES or EX) manually.

6.1-channel playback is not possible even if EXTD. SUR is pressed in the following cases:

When SURR L/R SP or SURR B L/R SP is set to “NONE” (see page 59).

When the source connected to the MULTI CH INPUT jack is being played.

When the source being played does not contain surround L/R channel signals.

When a Dolby Digital KARAOKE source is being played.

When 2ch Stereo or PURE DIRECT is selected.

When the power of this unit is turned off, the input mode will be reset to AUTO.

When the DTS-ES decoder is applied to DTS 96/24 signals, this unit decodes the DTS 96/24 signals using DTS-ES Matrix decoder.

The Pro Logic IIx decoder is not available when SURR B L/R SP is set to “NONE” (see page 59).

“PLIIxMovie” cannot be selected when SURR B L/R SP is set to “LRGx1” or “SMLx1” (see page 59).
