(5) Playback using the Dolby Headphone mode

The AVR-M330 is equipped with the Dolby Headphone mode, a technology developed jointly by Dolby Laboratories and Lake Technology for achieving 3D sound over regular headphones.

The Dolby Headphone mode is set when headphones are connected to the AVR-M330’s headphones jack.

There are actually four Dolby Headphone modes creating different sound field effects: DH1, DH2, DH3 and Bypass (normal stereo playback).

The Dolby Headphone mode is compatible with Dolby Digital and DTS multi-channel sources. With 2-channel sources, playback in the Cinema and Music modes can be selected with the 2-channel mode setting.
