x DTS 96/24 96 XXXX

(DTS 96/24 decoding mode)

•AUTO

When a DTS 96/24 signal is input, it is played back at 96 kHz sampling frequencies.

•OFF

Even when a DTS 96/24 signal is input, it is played back at 48 kHz sampling frequencies.

Notes

•This parameter is valid only in the A.F.D. mode (page 29). In other sound fields, this parameter is always set to “96 OFF”.

•DTS 96/24 decoding is only valid in the A.F.D. mode (page 29). When the system is set to other sound fields, standard 48 kHz decoding is used.

xSB XXXX(Surround back decoding mode)

You can also press SURR BACK DECODING to set the surround back decoding mode (page 33).

For details on each decoding mode, see page 34.

•OFF

•AUTO

•ON

Note

You can select the surround back decoding mode only when you use a sound field selected with the A.F.D. button except for the Dolby Pro Logic IIx mode.

xA.V.SYNC. X (Time alignment)

•Y (Yes) (Delay time: 68 ms)

The audio output is delayed so that the time gap between the audio output and visual display is minimized.

•N (No) (Delay time: 0 ms)

The audio output is not delayed.

Notes

•This parameter is useful when you use a large LCD or plasma monitor or a projection TV.

•This parameter is valid only when you use a sound field selected with the 2CH or A.F.D. buttons.

•The parameter is not valid when PCM 96 kHz, DTS 96/24 or DTS 2048 signals are input or when the receiver is performing DTS-ES Matrix 6.1 decoding.

xDEC. XXXX(Digital audio input decoding priority)

Lets you specify the input mode for the digital signal input to the DIGITAL IN jacks.

The initial setting is “DEC. AUTO” for VIDEO 2 and “DEC. PCM” for DVD and SA-CD/CD.

•AUTO

Automatically switches the input mode between DTS, Dolby Digital, or PCM.

•PCM

PCM signals are given priority (to prevent the interruption when playback starts). Even when other signals are input, the sound is output. However, this receiver cannot decode DTS-CD when set to “DEC. PCM”.

Note

When set to “DEC. AUTO” and the sound from the digital audio jacks (for CD, etc.) is interrupted when playback starts, set to “DEC. PCM”.
