5.1 Decoder Module

The 5.1 Decoder module forms the core of the M51’s audio processing with all functions, which the puristic Stereo and the inspired home cinema listener expects. It monitors and controls all the audio signals; it generates all the home cinema signals and sends them on to the outputs.

You can use all normal audio formats such as Dolby Surround, Dolby Pro Logic II, Dolby Digital, DTS or MPEG with the 5.1 Decoder Module, naturally in high resolution 24 bit as well.

These signals are also made available to external devices through 6 cinch sockets.

Additionally, using the Lipsync function, a time delay of up to 170 ms can be defined for the audio signal.

The 5.1 Decoder Module handles the conversion of the symmetrical analogue signals in ultra-linear stereo operation. From here, it also goes through gold-coated silver contact relays to the output stages.

A further task, which the

5.1Decoder Module handles is the connection of three digital sources. In this case, you can either feed the digital signals in using an optical fibre or coax cable.

Important

The 5.1 Decoder module plays a very significant role for the whole system. Since it represents the Audio Control Centre, the system will not operate without the decoder module.
