ADVANCED FUNCTIONS

Surround Mode	Description	Incoming Bitstream or Signal

DTS Neo:6	Depending on the number of speakers in your system, select 3-, 5- or	• DTS 2/2/.0 or .1, 3/2/.0 or .1
Cinema	6-channel modes, enhanced for movie or video presentations.	• DTS 96/24
		• Analog (2-channel)
		• PCM (32kHz, 44.1kHz or 48kHz)

DTS Neo:6	Available only in 5- and 6-channel modes, creates a surround presentation	• DTS 2/2/.0 or .1, 3/2/.0 or .1
Music	suitable for music recordings.	• DTS 96/24
		• Analog (2-channel)
		• PCM (32kHz, 44.1kHz or 48kHz)

Logic 7	Exclusive to Harman Kardon, Logic 7 enhances 2-channel and matrix-encoded	See below.
Mode Group	recordings by deriving separate information for the surround back channels.
	This provides more accurate placement of sound, improves panning and expands
	the sound field, even when used with 5.1-channel systems. Logic 7 uses 96kHz
	processing, and is available in 5.1- or 7.1-channel modes. Three variants are available.

Logic 7	Especially suited to 2-channel sources containing Dolby Surround or matrix	• Analog (2-channel)
Cinema	encoding, Logic 7 Cinema mode increases center channel intelligibility.	• Tuner
		• PCM (32kHz, 44.1kHz, 48kHz, 96kHz)

Logic 7	The AVR 247 is programmed at the factory to default to this mode for	• Analog (2-channel)
Music	2-channel signals. Logic 7 Music mode is well suited to conventional	• Tuner
	2-channel music recordings.	• PCM (32kHz, 44.1kHz, 48kHz, 96kHz)

Logic 7	Logic 7 Enhance circulates low frequencies in the 40Hz – 120Hz range to	• Analog (2-channel)
Enhance	the main speakers for less localized bass performance than would be achieved	• Tuner
	solely with a subwoofer. Enhance mode is best used with music recordings.	• PCM (32kHz, 44.1kHz, 48kHz, 96kHz)

Hall 1	Hall 1 is a DSP (digital signal processor) mode that simulates a small	• Analog (2-channel)
	concert hall. It is available in 5- or 6-channel versions.	• Tuner
		• PCM (32kHz, 44.1kHz or 48kHz)

Hall 2	Simulates a medium-sized concert hall. It is available in 5- or 6-channel	• Analog (2-channel)
	versions.	• Tuner
		• PCM (32kHz, 44.1kHz or 48kHz)

Theater	Simulates a live-performance theater. It is available in 5- or 6-channel	• Analog (2-channel)
	versions.	• Tuner
		• PCM (32kHz, 44.1kHz or 48kHz)

5-Channel Stereo	Useful for parties, the left- and right-channel information is played through	• Analog (2-channel)
	both the front and surround speakers on each side, while the center speaker	• Tuner
	plays a summed mono mix.	• PCM (32kHz, 44.1kHz or 48kHz)

7-Channel Stereo	Expands the 5-Channel Stereo presentation to include the surround back	• Analog (2-channel)
	channels.	• Tuner
		• PCM (32kHz, 44.1kHz or 48kHz)

DSP Surround Off	Turns off all surround processing and plays a pure 2-channel signal.	• Analog (2-channel)
	The signal is digitized and bass management settings are applied, making it	• Tuner
	appropriate when a subwoofer is used.	• PCM (32kHz, 44.1kHz, 48kHz, 96kHz)

Surround Off	Maintains an analog input signal in that form, bypassing all digital processing	•	Analog (2-channel)
(Analog Bypass)	(i.e., surround and bass management). Requires TONE OUT setting.	•	Tuner
