26 ENDTSThe DTS multi-channel audio format is available on CD, LD and DVDsoftware. DTS is a strictly digital format and cannot be decoded insidemost CD, LD or DVD players. For this reason, if you attempt to listento DTS encoded software through the analog output of your new CD,LD or DVD player, you will experience digital noise in most cases. Thisnoise can be quite loud if the analog output is connected directly to ahigh power amplification system. Proper measures for playing thedigital output as described below should be taken to avoid thissituation. To enjoy DTS Digital Surround playback, an external 5.1channel DTS Digital Surround decoder system or an amplifier with abuilt-in DTS Digital Surround decoder must be connected to the digitaloutput (S/P DIF, AES/EBU or TosLink) of a CD, LD or DVD player.All models are incorporated with the DTS decoder.* LFE = Low Frequency Effects. This channel delivers separate non-directional bass signals to the subwoofer for more dynamic deep basssound effects.DTS has a .1 or LFE channel.The indication “LFE” appears in the display when a signal is beinginput for this channel.Ambience effectsThis receiver is equipped with listening modes that allowyou to enjoy an enhanced sonic ambience with a varietyof video sources.In order to obtain the optimum effect from the surroundmodes, make sure to input the proper speaker settingsbeforehand. &Surround modes“DTS” and “DTS Digital Surround” are trademarks ofDigital Theater Systems, Inc.Manufactured under license from Dolby Laboratories. “Dolby”, “ProLogic” and the double-D symbol are trademarks of Dolby Laborato-ries.Dolby DigitalThe Dolby Digital surround format lets you enjoy up to 5.1 channelsof digital surround sound from Dolby Digital program sources (suchas Laserdisc or DVD software marked ). Compared withprevious Dolby surround, Dolby Digital provides even better soundquality, greater spatial accuracy, and improved dynamic range.NoteAlthough a full set of speakers (front left, right, and center, surroundleft and right, and a subwoofer) is required for true 5.1 channel DolbyDigital surround sound, this receiver lets you enjoy Dolby Digital (andDolby Surround) program sources, even if you connect only the frontspeakers.* LFE = Low Frequency Effects. This channel delivers separate non-directional bass signals to the subwoofer for more dynamic deepbass sound effects.Although only Dolby Digital soundtracks incorporate a separate lowfrequency channel, connecting a subwoofer will also improve deepbass performance in the other surround modes.The indication “LFE” appears in the display when a signal is beinginput for this channel.Center speakerFront speaker (L, R)Surround speaker (L, R)Subwoofer (SW)**Optional in this mode.Center speakerFront speaker (L, R)Surround speaker (L, R)Subwoofer (SW)**Optional in this mode.Dolby PRO LOGIC IIDolby Pro Logic II was designed specifically to provide a new senseof spatiality, directionality and articulation of sounds from DolbySurround encoded sources (such as video and Laserdisc softwaremarked ). This is achieved with an intelligent, built-infeedback logic design, a matrix surround decoding and the decodingof stereo, full bandwidth surround outputs. The PRO LOGIC II modesprogrammed into this receiver are “MOVIE”, “MUSIC” and “PROLOGIC”. The “MOVIE” mode of the PRO LOGIC II has presetcharacteristics to produce a calibrated, high-level surround soundplayback while the “MUSIC” mode has user-adjustable characteris-tics to offer the three optional controls, like “Dimension”, “CenterWidth” and “Panorama” modes to allow optimization of thesoundfields as desired. The “Dimension” control allows the user togradually adjust the soundfield either towards the front or towardsthe rear; the “Center Width” control allows various adjustment of theleft-center-right speakers’ balance; the “Panaroma” extends thefront stereo image to include the surround speakers for an exciting“wraparound” effect with side wall imaging.Center speakerFront speaker (L, R)Surround speaker (L, R)Subwoofer (SW)
