SURROUND SOUND

Surround sound settings

HALL

The sound reproduction is enhanced and a slight echo is added. This gives the impression of being in a large room. Can only be used in stereo mode.

SURROUND

The surround mode enables normal surround sound reproduction with 4 or 5 speakers. Depending on the source material, Dolby Surround Pro Logic, Dolby Digital or DTS is reproduced.

PRO LOGIC, DOLBY DIGITAL, DTS

In addition to SURROUND, the surround mode used – depending on the source material – will be displayed. In case of digital surround, the sound format AC-3 (for Dolby Digital) or DTS will be displayed, followed by the sound channels, available on the source (e. g. DVD).

Example: AC-3 3/2.1 Dolby Digital, 3 front channels, 2 surround channels and a subwoofer channel.

AC-3 3/1.0 Dolby Digital, 3 front channels,

1 (mono) surround channel without subwoofer signal.

DTS 3/2.1 DTS, 3 front channels, 2 surround channels and a subwoofer channel.

FRONT-3 STEREO

The surround sound is muted. 3 Stereo lets you listen to surround sound without using the surround speakers.

STEREO

All sound is reproduced and played through the front left and right speakers. This enables standard stereo reproduction.

Virtual Surround

Your receiver is able to reproduce one or more forms of virtual surround sound. Virtual surround gives a more real life sound impression by creating phantom speakers in addition to or instead of real speakers. The position of the listener influences the surround effect. The area where the effect is best is shown in grey.

The level of virtual surround sound effect can be adjusted in the setup menu. The following surround sound modes are available.

No rear speakers are needed. The sound of the rear channel is simulated by the front speakers. Surround sound is simulated through the front left, right and center speakers.

MULTI FRONT

Phantom speakers are created next to the left and right front speaker.

MULTI REAR

Phantom speakers are created next to the left and right rear speaker.

NATURAL SURROUND

Phantom speakers are created next to the left and right front and rear speakers.

Note: The availability of MULTI FRONT and

MULTI REAR depends on the sound channels on the source material.

NIGHT MODE (only on the remote control)

The loud parts of the sound are lowered and the soft passages are raised. You can enjoy surround sound without disturbing sleeping children or neighbors. Night mode only works with Dolby Digital, and only if supported by the source material.
