Setting for Easy and Effective Surround Operations

Auto Surround—AUTO SURROUND

Auto Surround works when the unit detects the incoming digital signal. In other words, it works...

When you select the digital source (the source with digital input selected for it), and

When you change the input mode from analog to digital.

Select “AUTO SURR ON” to activate Auto Surround.

AUTO SURR ON:

When multi-channel signal is detected, an appropriate Surround mode will be turned on.

When Dolby Digital 2-channel with surround signals is detected, “PLII MOVIE” will be selected.

When Dolby Digital 2-channel without surround signals is detected, “SURROUND OFF” will be selected.

When Linear PCM signal is detected, nothing will change.

AUTO SURR OFF: Select to deactivate Auto Surround.

Notes:

This function does not take effect in the following cases:

While playing an analog source,

While selecting any of DSP modes (see page 26), or one of the fixed digital input mode—“DOLBY DIGITAL” or “DTS SURROUND” (see page 12), and

While listening with the headphones—“HEADPHONE” or “3D H PHONE” (see pages 11 and 24).

If you select another Surround mode or DSP mode (or deactivate the Surround/DSP mode) manually, Auto Surround, if in use, will be canceled temporarily for the currently selected source.

Auto Surround setting will be restored in the following cases:

When you turn the receiver off and on,

When you change the source,

When you change the analog/digital input, and

When you select “AUTO SURR ON” again.

Virtual Surround Back—VIRTUAL SBACK

You can enjoy the surround back channel while playing back Dolby Digital Surround EX software or DTS-ES software without the surround back speakers. This function creates the great surround effect from the behind as if you have connected the surround back speakers.

Select “VRTL SB ON” to activate Virtual Surround Back.

VRTL SB ON: While you play Dolby Digital Surround EX software or DTS-ES software, the VIRTUAL SB (Surround Back) indicator lights up.

VRTL SB OFF: Select to deactivate Virtual Surround Back.

Notes:

When you have set “NONE” for “SURR SPEAKERS,” this function is not available.

While playing back DTS-ES Matrix software with DTS 96/24, DTS 96/24 processing will not be performed with Virtual Surround Back activated. To apply the processing, deactivate Virtual Surround Back.

Virtual Surround Back may not be applied to some software.

Virtual Surround Back only works for Surround modes (see page 25). This function does not work when activating the DSP mode (see page 27).

Setting the Digital Input Terminals

When you use the digital input terminals, register which components you have connected to the digital input terminals.

Digital Input terminal—DIGITAL IN

As you rotate MULTI JOG, the digital input terminals are set to used for the following digital components:
