8us format).

The DSD format, using a sampling frequency 64 times higher than that of a conventional CD, and with 1-bit quantization, achieves both a wide frequency range and a wide dynamic range across the audible frequency range, and so provides music reproduction extremely faithful to the original sound.

Types of Super Audio CDs

There are two types of discs, depending on the

SA-(D layer and (D layer combination.

• SA-(D layer: A high-density signal layer for Super Audio CD

• CD layer* I : A layer that is readable by a conventional CD player

Singte Iayer disc

An SA-CD layer consists of the 2 channel area or the multi-channel area.

• 2 channel area: An area in which 2 channel stereo tracks are recorded

• Multi-channel area: An area in which multichannel (up to 5.1 channels) tracks are recorded

2 channel area .4

• Do not catch the speakei cord insulation in tlle SPEAKER jack

Avoiding short-circuiting the speakers

Short-circuiting of the speakers may damage the system.

To prevent this, be sure to follow these precautions when connecting the speakers. Make sure the bare wire of each speaker cord does not touch another speaker temlinal or the bare wire of another speaker cord.

Examples of poor conditions of the speaker

Stripped speaker cord is touching another speaker terminal

cord

Stripped cords are touching each other due to excessive removal of insulation

After connecting all the components, speakers, and AC power cord (mains lead), output a test tone to check that all the speakers are connected correctly.

For details on outputting a test tone, see page 78.

If no sound is heard from a speaker while outputting a test tone, or a test tone is output from a speaker other than the one currently displayed on the Setup Display, the speaker may be short-circuited.

If this happens, check the speaker connection again.

• Be sure to match the speaker cord to the appropriate terminal on the components: @ to @, and @ to @. If the cords are reversed, the solmd will lack bass and may be distolted

About DVD software types and the conversion method

DVD software can be divided into 2 types: film-based software and video-based software.

Video-based software is derived from TV, such as dramas and sit-coms, and displays images at 30 flames/60 fields per second. Fihn-based software is derived from film and displays images at 24 flames per second.

Some DVD software contains both video and film.

This element creates the same sensation in your listening room by shifting the sound of the front speakers "into" the screen.

• Cinema Studio Reverberation

Reproduces the reverberations peculiar to a movie theater. Cinema Studio EX is the integrated mode which operates these elements simuhaneously.

Chapter

Subdivision of a title on a DVD A title is composed of several chapters.

Dolby Digital

This movie theater SOl.tndibmlat

ibr is more advanced than Dolby Surround Pro Logic. In this format, the surronnd speakers output stereo sonnd with an expanded frequency range, and a subwoofer channel/'or deep bass is independently provided.

This format is also called "5.1" with the subwoofer channel designed as the 0.1 channel (since it functions only when a deep bass effect is needed).

All six channels in this ibrmat are recorded separately for snperior channel separation.

Fnrthermore, since all the signals are processed digitally, less signal degradation occurs.

Dolby Pro Logic II

Dolby Pro Logic II creates five full-bandwidth output channels from 2 channel sonrces. This is done using an advanced, high-pnrity matrix surround decoder that extracts the spatial properties of the original recording without adding an?,:new sonnds or tonal colorations.

•

Movie mode

The Movie mode is _r use with stereo television shows and all programs encoded in Dolby

Surround.

The result is enhanced soundfield directionality that approaches the qnality of discrete 5. l-channel sound.

•

Music mode

The Music mode is ibr use with aW stereo music recordings, and provides a wide and deep sonnd space.

Dolby Surround Pro Logic

As one method of decoding Dolby Snrround,

Dolby Snrronnd Pro Logic produces four channels from 2 channel sound. Compared with the ibrmer Dolby Surround system, Dolby

Surround Pro Logic reprodnces left-to-right panning more natnrally and localizes sonnds

more precisely.

To take full advantage of Dolby

Surround Pro Logic, you should have one pair of surround speakers and a center speaker.

The surround speakers output monaural sound.

DTS

Digital audio compression technology developed by Digital Theater Systems, Inc. This technology conforms to 5. i-channel surround.

This format comprises of stereo rear channel and there is discrete subwoof_r channel in this fomlat.

DTS provides the same 5.1 discrete channels of high quality digital audio. The good channel separation is realized due to the al!

channel data being recorded discretely and processed in digitally.

DVD

A disc that contains up to 8 hours of moving pictures even though its diameter is the same as aCD.

The data capacity of a single-layer and singlesided DVD, at 4.7 GB (Giga Byte), is 7 times that ofa CD. Furthermore, the data capacity of a dual-layer and single-sided DVD is 8.5 GB, a single-layer and double-sided DVD 9.4 GB, and a dual-layer and double-sided DVD 17 GB.

The picture data uses the MPEG 2 fore, at, one of a worldwide standard of digital compression technology.

The picttLre data is compressed to about 1/40 of its original size. The DVD also uses the variable rate coding technology that processes allocated data according to the status of the picture.

The audio data is recorded in Dolby Digital as well as in P(M, allowing you to enjoy more realistic audio presence.

Furthermore, various advanced functions such as the multi-angle, multilingual, and Parental
