Automatic outputting of the original soundxAUTO FORMAT DIRECT STANDARD

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.

Outputting the sound from multiple speakersxAUTO FORMAT DIRECT MULTI

This mode lets you enjoy audio playback of all types of discs from multiple speakers.

•The sound is not output from multiple speakers depending on the source.

Outputting 2 channel sources like CDs by 5.1channelxDolby 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.xDolby Pro Logic II MOVIE/MUSIC

Dolby Pro Logic II produces five full-bandwidth output channels from 2 channel sources. This is done using an advanced, high-purity matrix surround decoder that extracts the spatial properties of the original recording without adding any new sounds or tonal colorations.

Note

•When the input signal is multi channel source, Dolby Pro Logic and Dolby Pro Logic II MOVIE/MUSIC are canceled and the multi channel source is output directly.
