Dolby Pro Logic II

Dolby Pro Logic II expands any 2-

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

channel source for 5.1-channel

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

playback. It provides a very natural and

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

seamless surround-sound experience

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

that fully envelops the listener. As well

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

as music and movies, video games can

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

also benefit from the dramatic spatial

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

effects and vivid imaging.

Playback

Note

*1 (North American and Taiwanese models) This listening mode is not available.

*2 Pure Audio cannot be selected when Zone 2 is active.

Besides, if you activate Zone 2 while Pure Audio is selected, the listening mode will automatically switch to Direct.

*3 The AV receiver can input the DSD signal from HDMI IN. Depending on the player, setting the output on the player side to PCM might bring better sound.

*4 For the Blu-ray Discs, Dolby Digital is used.

*5 DTS is used depending on the configuration of the AV receiver.

The listening mode may not be selected depending on the input signal. The signal input from the external AV components can be displayed by the function on the next page.
