Basic Operation

Using the DENON original surround modes

The AVR-2807 is equipped with a high performance digital signal processor (DSP) that uses digital signal processing to recreate sound fields artificially. One of 10 surround modes can be selected according to the program source and parameters can be further adjusted to achieve even more realistic sound fields.

Types of surround modes and their features

7CH STEREO

This mode lets you enjoy stereo sound with 7 speakers. The front L (R) channel signals are played from the

surround and surround back L (R) channels and only the in-phase component of the L and R channels is

(NOTE 1)

played on the center channel.

 

 

 

WIDE SCREEN

This mode recreates the atmosphere of watching a movie in a theater with a large screen. In this mode, all

sources are played in the 7.1-channel mode.

 

 

 

SUPER STADIUM

This mode recreates the atmosphere of watching a game of baseball, soccer or other sport in a stadium.

 

 

ROCK ARENA

This mode recreates the atmosphere of a live concert in an arena.

 

 

JAZZ CLUB

This mode recreates the atmosphere of a live concert in a club with low ceilings, hard walls and the artist

just in front of you.

 

 

 

CLASSIC CONCERT

This mode recreates the atmosphere of a concert hall with rich reverberations.

 

 

MONO MOVIE

This mode recreates the atmosphere of an expansive sound field for movie sources recorded in monaural.

(NOTE 2)

 

 

 

VIDEO GAME

This mode provides a rich sense of presence for video games.

 

 

MATRIX

This mode recreates music sources recorded in stereo with an enhanced sense of expansion.

 

 

VIRTUAL

This mode can be used to enjoy surround sound with only front speakers or when using headphones.

 

 

NOTE 1: “5CH STEREO” is displayed when “SB CH OUT” is set to “OFF”.

NOTE 2: When playing sources recorded in monaural, the sound will be one-sided if signals are only input to one channel (left or right), so input signals to both channels. If you have a source component with only one audio output (monophonic camcorder, etc.) obtain a “Y” adapter cable to split the mono output to two outputs, and connect to the L and R inputs.

•Depending on the program source being played, the effect may not be very noticeable. In this case, try other surround modes, without worrying about their names, to create a sound field suited to your tastes.
