Basic Operations—Continued

DTS-ES Matrix

This is DTS with an added surround back channel for 6.1 surround sound. Use it to

provide 6.1-channel surround playback with program material recorded in DTS 5.1 format. Since DTS 5.1 program material

contains surround back channel informa-

tion, all channels can be reconstructed for 6.1-channel playback. Use this mode with CDs, DVDs, or LDs that bear the DTS-ES or DTS logo.

Neo:6

This mode provides 6.1-channel playback from 2-chan- nel sources. It offers six full-bandwidth channels with excellent separation. There are two modes of operation: Cinema mode for movies, and Music mode for listening to music.

Cinema mode simulates the realistic sense of movement that you get with 6.1-channel surround sound sources. Use this mode with videos, DVDs, and TV programs that feature stereo sound.

Music mode uses the surround channels to simulate a natural sound field that cannot be produced with conven- tional stereo. Use this mode with stereo material such as music CDs.

Onkyo Original DSP Modes

Orchestra

Suitable for classical or operatic music. The surround channels are emphasized in order to widen the stereo image. In addition, it simulates the natural reverberation of a large hall.

Unplugged

Suitable for acoustic instrument sounds, vocals, and jazz music. By emphasizing the front stereo image, it simu- lates the stage-front experience.

Studio-Mix

Suitable for rock and pop music. Listening to music in this mode creates a lively sound field with a powerful acoustic image, like being at a club or rock concert.

TV Logic

Adds realistic acoustics to TV programs produced in a TV studio. In addition, it adds surround effects to the entire sound and adds clarity to voices.

Mono Movie

This mode is suitable for use with old movies and other mono sound sources. The center speaker outputs the sound as it is, while reverb is applied to the sound output by the other speakers, giving presence to even mono material.

All Ch Stereo

Ideal for background music. The front, surround, and surround back channels create a stereo image that fills the entire listening area.

Full Mono

In this mode, all speakers output mono audio, so the music sounds the same regardless of where you are.
