Notes on sound fields

Depending on the speaker pattern settings, some sound fields may not be available.

You cannot select [PLIIx Movie] (*) and [PLIIx Music] (*) at the same time.

[PLIIx Movie] (*) and [PLIIx Music] (*) are available only when the speaker pattern is set to a setting with surround back speaker(s).

The sound fields for music and movies do not work in the following cases:

DTS-HD Master Audio, DTS-HD High Resolution Audio or Dolby TrueHD with a sampling frequency higher than 48 kHz are being received.

[Analog Direct] is selected.

[PLII Movie], [PLII Music], [PLIIx Movie] (*), [PLIIx Music] (*), [Neo:6 Cinema] (*) and [Neo:6 Music] (*) do not work when the speaker pattern is set to [2/0] or [2/0.1].

When one of the sound fields for music is selected, no sound is output from the subwoofer if all of the speakers are set to [Large] in the Speaker Settings menu. However, the sound will be output from the subwoofer if:

the digital input signal contains LFE signals.

the front or surround speakers are set to [Small].

[Multi Stereo], [PLII Movie], [PLII Music], [PLIIx Movie] (*), [PLIIx Music] (*), [HD-D.C.S.] or [Portable Audio] is selected.

*For STR-DH750 only

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 [Neo:6 Cinema] (*) or [Neo:6 Music] (*) if all of the speakers are set to [Large].

In order to take full advantage of the Dolby Digital bass redirection circuitry, we recommend setting the subwoofer’s cutoff frequency as high as possible.

*For STR-DH750 only
