AUTO: This mode automatically switches Dolby Digital EX/DTS ES Matrix 6.1/DTS ES Discrete 6.1 depending on the signal in the input source that this unit can detect. Rear center speaker does not work for 5.1 channel sources.

Discrete 6.1: This mode can be selected when the source with DTS ES Discrete format has been detected. (The “DISCRETE” indicator lights up.)

Matrix 6.1: This mode makes 6-channel playback of the input source with Matrix or Matrix compatible format through the Matrix 6.1 decoder. (The “MATRIX” indicator lights up.)

OFF: Rear center speaker does not work in this mode.

Cautions

Some 6.1-channel compatible discs do not have the signal (flag) which this unit can automatically detect. When playing this kind of discs with 6.1 channel, select “Matrix 6.1”.

6.1-channel playback is not possible even if EX/ES is pressed in the following cases:

1 when “1C REAR L/R SP” is set to “NONE” 2 when the sound effect is turned off

3 when the source connected to the 6CH INPUT jack is being played

4 when Dolby Digital KARAOKE source is being played

Selecting PRO LOGIC, PRO LOGIC or Neo: 6

You can enjoy the 2-channel sources decoded into five or six discrete channels by selecting PRO LOGIC, PRO LOGIC or Neo: 6 in the program No. 12.

1 Select a 2-channel source and start playback on the source component.

2 Press the numeric button 12 repeatedly to select the decoder; PRO LOGIC, PRO LOGIC or Neo: 6.
