The Cinema mode is for use with stereo television shows and all programs encoded in Dolby Surround.

The Music mode is recommended for stereo music and surround-encoded stereo music sources.

The Game mode is for playing games. The game mode can only be used with 2-channel audio sources.

•Dimension Control:

This control gradually adjusts the soundfield either towards the front or towards the rear.

The control can be set in 7 steps from 0 to 6.

DTS NEO:6 Mode:

•Cinema:

This mode is optimum for playing movies. Decoding is performed with emphasis on separation performance to achieve the same atmosphere with 2-channel sources as with 6.1-channel sources.

This mode is effective for playing sources recorded in conventional surround formats as well, because the in-phase component is assigned mainly to the center channel (C) and the reversed phase component to the surround (SL, SR and SB channels).

•Music:

This mode is suited mainly for playing music. The front channel (FL and FR) signals bypass the decoder and are played directly so there is no loss of sound quality, and the effect of the surround signals output from the center (C) and surround (SL, SR and SB) channels add a natural sense of expansion to the sound field.

CENTER IMAGE (0.0 to 1.0: default 0.3):

The center image parameter for adjusting the expansion of the center channel in the DTS NEO:6 MUSIC mode has been added.
