Dolby Surround (Dolby Pro Logic)*

Used to reproduce sound tracks of the software encoded with Dolby

Surround ( DOLBY SURROUND ).

Dolby Surround encoding format records the left front channel, right front channel, center channel, and surround channel signals (total 4 channels) into 2 channels.

The Dolby Pro Logic decoder built in this receiver decodes these 2-channel signals into original 4-channel signals—matrix-based multi-channel reproduction, and allows you to enjoy a realistic surround sound in your listening room.

•When Dolby Pro Logic is activated, the PRO LOGIC indicator lights up on the display.

■DTS Digital Surround

DTS-ES Extended Surround (DTS-ES)**

DTS-ES Extended Surround is another new digital surround encoding format, developed by Digital Theater Systems, Inc., that adds the third surround channel—surround back channel. (See “Dolby Digital EX.”)

DTS ES has two types—DTS-ES Discrete 6.1 and DTS-ES Matrix 6.1:

DTS-ES Discrete 6.1—compatible with DTS-ES Extended Surround (DTS-ES), which has discrete 6.1-channel. You can play

back the software encoded with DTS ES ().

DTS-ES Matrix 6.1—is designed to add an extra surround channel to DTS Digital Surround 5.1-channel. By using a matrix encoding/ decoding method, additional “surround back” channel signal is encoded (and decoded) in both the left and right surround channel signals. You can playback the software encoded with DTS-ES

().

•To enjoy the software encoded with DTS-ES, connect the source component using the digital terminal on the rear of this receiver. (See page 13.)

DTS Digital Surround**

Used to reproduce multi-channel sound tracks of the software

encoded with DTS Digital Surround ( ).

DTS Digital Surround is a discrete 5.1-channel digital audio format available on CD, LD, and DVD software.

Compared to Dolby Digital, DTS Digital Surround format has a lower audio compression ratio which enables it to add breadth and depth to the sounds reproduced. As such, DTS Digital Surround features natural, solid and clear sound.

•To enjoy the software encoded with DTS Digital Surround, connect the source component using the digital terminals on the rear of this receiver. (See page 13.)

When using Surround mode, the sounds come out of all the connected and activated speakers.

•If only the front speakers are connected, JVC’s original

3D-PHONIC processing (which has been developed to create the surround effect only through the front speakers) is used.

The 3D-PHONIC indicator lights up on the display.

DVD MULTI Playback Mode

This receiver provides the DVD MULTI playback mode for reproducing the analog discrete 5.1-channel output mode of the DVD player.

You can adjust the sound reproduced by DVD MULTI playback mode while playing back video software such as a DVD using the analog discrete 5.1-channel output mode.

•For the connection and the details of the DVD MULTI playback mode, see page 37.

Note:

When you select “DVD MULTI” as the source to play, you cannot select any Surround and DSP modes.

Neo:6**

Neo:6 is a newly developed conversion method to create

6-channel (plus subwoofer) from all 2-channel software. Neo:6 has two modes—Neo:6 Cinema and Neo:6 Music:

Neo:6 Cinema—suitable for reproduction of matrix-based 2-channel software.

Neo:6 Music—suitable for reproduction of all 2-channel stereo music software.
