Surround modes
DTS Digital Surround
DTS Digital Surround(also called simply DTS) is a multichannel digital signal format which can handle more amount of data than Dolby Digital, providing better audio quality. Though the number of audio channels is 5.1(front left, front right, center, rear(surround) left, rear(surround) right and Low Frequency Effects) which is same as Dolby
Digital, discs bearing the “ ” provides fat sound
Dolby Pro Logic
Dolby Pro Logic is a specially encoded two channel surround format which consists of four channels (front left, center, front right and surround). Sources bearing the
“ ” provide the theater-like surround sound.
The surround channel is monaural, but is played through two surround speakers.
and better signal - to - noise ratio, thanks to the lower audio compression ratio format.
It also provides wide dynamic range and better separation, resulting in magnificent sound.
“DTS” and “DTS Digital Surround” are registered trademarks of Digital Theater Systems,Inc.
Manufactured under license from Dolby Laboratories.
“Dolby”, “Pro Logic”, and the double-D symbol are trademarks of Dolby Laboratories.
• The following modes apply conventional 2-channel signals such as digital PCM or analog stereo signals to high performance Digital Processor to recreate sound fields artificially.
Dolby Digital
Dolby Digital is the multi-channel digital signal format developed by Dolby Laboratories. Discs bearing the
“ ” includes the recording of up to 5. 1 channels of digital signals, which can reproduce much better sound quality, spatial expansion and dynamic range characteristics than the previous Dolby Surround effect.
Dolby Pro Logic II surround
This mode applies conventional 2- channel signals such as digital PCM or analog stereo signals as well as Dolby
Surround signals, etc. to surround processing to offer improvements over conventional Dolby Pro Logic circuits.
Dolby Pro Logic ll surround includes 4 modes as follows:
• Dolby Pro Logic ll MOVIE
When enjoying movies, this mode allows you to further enhance the cinematic quality by adding processing that emphasizes the sounds of the action special effects.
• Dolby Pro Logic ll MUSIC
When listening to music, this mode allows you to further enhance the sound quality by adding processing that emphasizes the musical effects.
• Dolby Pro Logic ll MATRIX
When listening to poor FM broadcasts, this mode allows you to further enhance the sound quality by the ultimate cure for poor FM stereo signals.
• Dolby Pro Logic ll CUSTOM
This mode reproduces a delayed signals from the surround channels to emphasize the sense of expansion.
MATRIX
This mode reproduces a delayed signals from the surround channels to emphasize the sense of expansion for music sources.
THEATER
This mode provides the effect of being in a movie theater when watching a movie source.
HALL
This mode provides the ambience of a concert hall for classical music sources such as orchestral, chamber music, or an instrumental solo.
STADIUM
This mode provides the expansive sound field to achieve the true stadium effect when watching baseball or soccer games.
CHURCH
This mode provides the ambience of a church for baroque, string orchestral or choral group music.
• When the 6 CH DIRECT INPUTs are connected to the 6 CH decoder for a surround sound such as Dolby Digital or DTS, etc., you can enjoy the corresponding surround sound, too. (For details, see the operator’s manual of the component to be connected.)
1 3
Delay time
When the center speaker or the rear speakers is(are) closer to the listener than the front speakers, the sound from the center speaker or the rear speakers can arrive at the listener’s ears earlier than the sound from the front speakers.
In this case, the imaging is not as sharp and stable as it could be.
For audible improvement, the sound from center speaker can be delayed with the center delay time setting so that the sound from the front and the center speakers will be heard at the same time and the sound from the rear speakers can be also delayed with the rear delay time setting so that the sound from the front and the rear speakers will be heard at the same time.
The optimum delay time will be different according to the room size and the acoustic properties. It is recommended that you try several times to obtain the best effect.
• It is adjustable in Dolby Digital, Dolby Pro Logic II or Dolby Pro Logic mode. (For details, refer to “In Dolby
Digital, Dolby Pro Logic II or Dolby Pro Logic mode, adjusting delay times of the speakers” on page 19)
Speaker placement
To obtain the best surround sound effect in your home, place the speakers as follows;
• Front speakers: Place each front speaker about 1m (40 ) from the TV set.
• Center speaker: Place the center speaker either above or below the TV set to assure good visualization of center channel program.
• Rear speakers: Place the rear speakers approximately 1m above the ear level of a seated listener on the direct left and right of them or slightly behind.
• Subwoofer: Reproduces powerful deep bass sounds. Place a powered subwoofer anywhere in the front as desired.
• The ideal surround system needs all the speakers listed above.
To obtain the best surround effects, the speakers except the subwoofer should be full range speakers.
Note: To avoid interference with the TV picture, use only magnetically shielded center and front speakers.
• For your reference, the sound from each channel can be reproduced according to the surround modes as follows:
Channels
Front L/R
Modes
DTS Dolby Digital Dolby Pro Logic II Dolby Pro Logic Other Surround
