Input Source

The following audio formats are supported by the listening mode.

AThis is mono (monophonic) sound.

SThis is stereo (stereophonic) sound. Two independent audio signal channels are reproduced through two speakers.

DThis is 5.1-channel surround sound. This surround system has five main channels of sound and a sixth subwoofer channel (called the point-one channel).

FThis is 7.1-channel surround sound. This is a further sound enhancement to 5.1 channel sound with two additional speakers that provide greater sound envelopment and more accurate positioning of sounds.

GThis is DTS-ES surround sound. This surround system can produce a discrete or a matrix-encoded sixth channel from existing DTS 5.1 encoded material.

HThis is Dolby Digital EX surround sound. This provides a center back surround channel from 5.1-channel sources.
