•“Audyssey DSX™” can be set when you are using front height speakers or front wide speakers.

•“Audyssey DSX™” is only valid when using a center speaker.

•“Audyssey DSX™” is valid when surround mode is STANDARD mode other than PLgz Height or DTS NEO:X.

About Audyssey Dynamic Surround Expansion

(A-DSX)

Audyssey DSX™ is a scalable system that adds new speakers to improve surround impression.

Starting with a 5.1 system Audyssey DSX™ firstadds Wide channels for the biggest impact on envelopment. Research in human hearing has proven that information from the Wide channels is much more critical in the presentation of a realistic soundstage than the Back Surround channels found in traditional 7.1 systems. Audyssey DSX™ then creates a pair of Height channels to reproduce the next most important acoustical and perceptual cues. In addition to these new Wide and Height channels, Audyssey DSX™ applies Surround Envelopment Processing to enhance the blend between the front and surround channels.

gRESTORER

About the RESTORER function

•Such compressed audio formats as MP3, WMA (Windows Media Audio) and MPEG-4 AAC reduce the amount of data by eliminating signal components that are hard for the human ear to hear. The RESTORER function generates the signals eliminated upon compression, restoring the sound to conditions near those of the original sound before compression. It also corrects the sense of volume of the bass to obtain richer sound with compressed audio signals.

•This is displayed on the GUI menu and can be set when the input source is set to “NET/USB”, or when analog signals or PCM signals (fs = 44.1/48 kHz) are input.
