Automatic outputting of the original sound

xAUTO FORMAT DIRECT AUTO

The auto decoding function automatically detects the type of audio signal being input (Dolby Digital, DTS, or standard 2 channel stereo) and performs the proper decoding if necessary. This mode presents the sound as it was recorded/encoded, without adding any effects (e.g. reverberation).

However, if there are no low frequency signals (Dolby Digital LFE, etc.), it will generate a low frequency signal for output to the subwoofer.

Using only the front speaker and subwoofer

x2 CHANNEL STEREO

This mode outputs the sound from the front left and right speakers and subwoofer. Standard 2 channel (stereo) sources completely bypass the sound field processing. Multi channel surround formats are downmixed to two channels.

This allows you to play any source using only the front left and right speakers and subwoofer.

Outputting 2 channel sources like CDs by 5.1channel

xDolby Pro Logic

Dolby Pro Logic produces five output channels from 2 channel sources. This mode performs Pro Logic decoding to the input signal and output to front, center, and surround speakers.

Meanwhile, the surround channel becomes monaural.
