DTS Neo:6

Depending on the number of speakers in your system, select 3-, 5- or

• DTS 2/2/.0 or .1, 3/2/.0 or .1

Cinema

6-channel modes, enhanced for movie or video presentations.

• DTS 96/24

 

 

• Analog (2-channel)

 

 

• PCM (32kHz, 44.1kHz or 48kHz)

 

 

 

DTS Neo:6

Available only in 5- and 6-channel modes, creates a surround presentation

• DTS 2/2/.0 or .1, 3/2/.0 or .1

Music

suitable for music recordings.

• DTS 96/24

 

 

• Analog (2-channel)

 

 

• PCM (32kHz, 44.1kHz or 48kHz)

 

 

 

Logic 7

Exclusive to Harman Kardon, Logic 7 enhances 2-channel and matrix-encoded

Mode Group

recordings by deriving separate information for the surround back channels.

 

 

 

This provides more accurate placement of sound, improves panning and expands

 

 

 

the sound field, even when used with 5.1-channel systems. Logic 7 uses 96kHz

 

 

 

processing, and is available in 5.1- or 7.1-channel modes. Three variants are available.

• PCM (32kHz, 44.1kHz, 48kHz, 96kHz)

 

 

 

Logic 7

The AVR 247 is programmed at the factory to default to this mode for

Music

2-channel signals. Logic 7 Music mode is well suited to conventional

2-channel music recordings.

• PCM (32kHz, 44.1kHz, 48kHz, 96kHz)

 

 

 

Logic 7

Logic 7 Enhance circulates low frequencies in the 40Hz – 120Hz range to

Enhance

the main speakers for less localized bass performance than would be achieved

• Tuner

 

solely with a subwoofer. Enhance mode is best used with music recordings.

• PCM (32kHz, 44.1kHz, 48kHz, 96kHz)

 

 

 

Hall 1

Hall 1 is a DSP (digital signal processor) mode that simulates a small

• Analog (2-channel)

 

concert hall. It is available in 5- or 6-channel versions.

• Tuner

 

 

• PCM (32kHz, 44.1kHz or 48kHz)

 

 

 

Hall 2

Simulates a medium-sized concert hall. It is available in 5- or 6-channel

• Analog (2-channel)

 

versions.

• Tuner

 

 

• PCM (32kHz, 44.1kHz or 48kHz)

 

 

 

Theater

Simulates a live-performance theater. It is available in 5- or 6-channel

• Analog (2-channel)

 

versions.

• Tuner

 

 

• PCM (32kHz, 44.1kHz or 48kHz)

 

 

 

5-Channel Stereo

Useful for parties, the left- and right-channel information is played through

• Analog (2-channel)

 

both the front and surround speakers on each side, while the center speaker

• Tuner

 

plays a summed mono mix.

• PCM (32kHz, 44.1kHz or 48kHz)

 

 

 

7-Channel Stereo

Expands the 5-Channel Stereo presentation to include the surround back

• Analog (2-channel)

 

channels.

• Tuner

 

 

• PCM (32kHz, 44.1kHz or 48kHz)

 

 

 

DSP Surround Off

Turns off all surround processing and plays a pure 2-channel signal.

• Analog (2-channel)

 

The signal is digitized and bass management settings are applied, making it

• Tuner

 

appropriate when a subwoofer is used.

• PCM (32kHz, 44.1kHz, 48kHz, 96kHz)

 

 

 

 

Surround Off

Maintains an analog input signal in that form, bypassing all digital processing

Analog (2-channel)

(Analog Bypass)

(i.e., surround and bass management). Requires TONE OUT setting.
