Enjoying

If you connect a subwoofer

This receiver will generate a low frequency signal for output to the subwoofer when there is no LFE signal, which is a low-pass sound effect output from a subwoofer to a 2 channel signal. However, the low frequency signal is not generated for “NEO6 CIN” or “NEO6 MUS” when all speakers are set to “LARGE”. In order to take full advantage of the Dolby Digital bass redirection circuitry, we recommend setting the subwoofer’s cut off frequency as high as possible.

Notes

•This function does not work in the following cases.

–PCM signals with a sampling frequency of more than 96 kHz are being received.

–DTS 96/24 signals are being received.

–DTS-HD signals with a sampling frequency of more than 48 kHz are being received.

–Dolby TrueHD signals with a sampling frequency of more than 48 kHz are being received.

•The beginning of the sound stream may be dropped out when Neural-THX processing is turned on or off.

Tips

•You can identify the encoding format of DVD software, etc., by looking at the logo on the package.

•Dolby Pro Logic IIx decoding is effective, when a multi-channel signal is input.

Selecting movie/music mode

You can take advantage of surround sound simply by selecting one of the receiver’s preprogrammed sound fields. They bring the exciting and powerful sound of movie theaters and concert halls into your home.
