DSP SURROUND (MOVIE, HALL, STADIUM, MATRIX)

These modes provide surround effect processing from each input source material.

They will produce theater, concert hall and stadium like atmospheres. Select as your taste desires.

Note:

•PCM-audio (32 kHz, 44.1 kHz or 48 kHz) and analog source material can playback in this mode.

STEREO

This mode bypasses all surround processing.

Stereo program sources the left and right channels play normally when PCM-audio or analog stereo is input.

With Dolby Digital and DTS sources, the 5.1 multi-channels are converted to two channel stereo. 96 kHz PCM source material can be playback in stereo mode.

S (SOURCE ) - DIRECT

In the source direct mode, the tone control circuit and bass management configuration are bypassed for full range frequency response and the purist audio reproduction.

96 kHz PCM source material can be play back in this mode.

Notes:

•Internal speaker size is setup to front L/R = Large, Center = Large, Surround L/R = Large and Subwoofer = yes automatically. Tone controls and additional processing are also defeated.

•When you use this mode with certain DVD and CD players, performing operations such as “Skip” or “Stop” may momentarily interrupt the output.

CAUTION

NOTE for DTS signal

*Connected DVD-player, laser-disc player or CD-player needs to support DTS-digital output. You may not be able to play some DTS source signals from certain CD players and LD players even if you connect the player to the SR6300 digitally. This is because the digital signal has been processed (such as the output level, sampling frequency, or frequency response) and the SR6300 cannot recognize the signal as DTS data.

*Depending on the player used, DTS play may produce short noise. This is not a malfunction. In such cases, select the surround mode the “DTS” or “DTS-ES”.

*If DTS cinema, DTS music or DTS-ES mode is selected, digital input cannot be switched to analog input.

*When the analog input function has been selected, Surround mode cannot be switched to DTS cinema, DTS music or DTS-ES mode.

*While signals from DTS-laser disc or CD are playing in another Surround mode, you cannot switch to digital input or from digital input to analog input by INPUT SETUP in SETUP MAIN MENU or A/D button.

*The outputs for the VCR 1 OUT, DSS/VCR 2 OUT, TAPE OUT, and CD-R OUT output analog audio signals. Do not record from CDs or LDs that support DTS using these outputs. If you do, the DTS- encoded signal will be recorded as noise.

NOTE for Dolby Digital Surround EX signal

*When playing Dolby Digital Surround EX-encoded software in 6.1 channels, it is required to set the EX/ES mode.

*Note that some of Dolby Digital Surround EX-encoded software does not contain the identification signal. In this case, set the EX/ ES mode manually.

NOTE for 96kHz PCM audio

*AUTO, Source- DIRECT, and STEREO modes can be used when playing PCM signals with a sampling frequency of 96 kHz (such as from DVD-Video discs that contain 24 bit, 96 kHz audio). If such signals are input during playback in one of the other surround modes, output from SR6300 will be muted.

*Certain DVD player models inhibit digital output. For details, refer to the player’s operation manual.

*Some DVD formatted discs featured copy protection. When using such disc, 96 kHz PCM signal is not output from the DVD player. For details, refer to the player's operation manual.
