Description

DTS was introduced in 1994 to provide 5.1 channels of discrete digital audio into home theater systems.

DTS brings you premium quality discrete multi-channel digital sound to both movies and music.

DTS is a multi-channel sound system designed to create full range digital sound reproduction.

The no compromise DTS digital process sets the standard of quality for cinema sound by delivering an exact copy of the studio master recordings to neighborhood and home theaters.

Now,every moviegoer can hear the sound exactly as the moviemaker intended.

DTS can be enjoyed in the home for either movies or music on of DVD's, LD's, and CD's.

"DTS"and "DTS Digital Surround" are registered trademarks of Digital Theater Systems, Inc.

DTS-ES Extended Surround is a new multi-channel digital signal format developed by Digital Theater Systems Inc.

While offering high compatibility with the conventional

DTS Digital Surround format, DTS-ES Extended Surround greatly improves the 360-degree surround impression and space expression thanks to further expanded surround signals. This format has been used professionally in movie theaters since 1999.

In addition to the 5.1surround channels (FL, FR, C, SL, SR and LFE), DTS-ES Extended Surround also offers the SB

(Surround Back) channel for surround playback with a total of 6.1 channels. DTS-ES Extended Surround includes two signal formats with different surround signal recording methods, as DTS-ES Discrete 6.1 and DTS-ES Matrix 6.1.

"DTS", "DTS-ES Extended Surround" and "Neo:6" are trademarks of Digital Theater Systems, Inc.

The advantages of discrete multichannel systems over matrix are well known.

But even in homes equipped for discrete multichannel, there remains a need for high-quality matrix decoding. This is because of the large library of matrix surround motion pictures available on disc and on VHS tape; and analog television broadcasts.

The typical matrix decoder of today derives a center channel and a mono surround channel from two-channel matrix stereo material. It is better than a simple matrix in that it includes steering logic to improve separation, but because of its mono, band-limited surround it can be disappointing to users accustomed to discrete multichannel.

Neo:6 offers several important improvements as follow.

< Neo:6 provides up to six full-band channels of matrix decoding from stereo matrix material. Users with 6.1 and

5.1 systems will derive six and five separate channels, respectively. corresponding to the standard home-theater speaker layouts.

< Neo:6 technology allows various sound elements within a channel or channels to be steered separately, and in a way which follows naturally from the original presentation.

< Neo:6 offers a music mode to expand stereo nonmatrix recordings into the five-or six-channel layout, in a way which does not diminish the subtlety and integrity of the original stereo recording.

The stereo CD is a 16-bit medium with sampling at 44.1 kHz.

Professional audio has been 20- or 24- bit for some time, and there is increasing interest in higher sampling rates both for recording and for delivery into the home. Greater bit depths provide extended dynamic range. Higher sampling rates allow wider frequency response and the use of anti-alias and reconstruction filters with more favorable aural characteristics.

DTS 96/24 allows for 5.1channel sound tracks to be encoded at a rate of 96kHz/24bits on DVD Video titles.

When DVD-video appeared, it became possible to deliver

24-bit, 96 kHz audio into the home, but only in two channels, and with serious limitations on picture. This capability has had little use.

DVD-audio allows 96/24 in six channels, but a new player is needed, and only analog outputs are provided, necessitating the use of the D/A converters, and analog electronics provided in the player.

DTS 96/24 offers the following:

1. Sound quality transparent to the original 96/24 master.

2. Full backward compatibility with all existing decoders.

(Existing decoders will output a 48 kHz signal)

3. No new player required: DTS 96/24 can be carried on

DVD-video, or in the video zone of DVD-audio, accessible to all DVD players.

4. 96/24 5.1-channel sound with full-quality full motion video, for music programs and motion picture soundtracks on

DVD-video.

Description Connections

Dolby Digital identifies the use of Dolby Digital audio coding for such consumer formats as DVD and DTV. As with film sound, Dolby Digital can provide up to five full-range channels for left, center, and right screen channels, independent left and right surround channels, and a sixth ( ".1") channel for low-frequency effects.

Dolby Surround Pro Logic II is an improved matrix decoding technology that provides better spatiality and directionality on Dolby Surround program material; provides a convincing three-dimensional soundfield on conventional stereo music recordings; and is ideally suited to bring the surround experience to automotive sound. While conventional surround programming is fully compatible with Dolby Surround Pro

Logic II decoders, soundtracks will be able to be encoded specifically to take full advantage of Pro Logic II playback, including separate left and right surround channels. (Such material is also compatible with conventional Pro Logic decoders.)

Dolby Digital EX creates six full-bandwidth output channels from 5.1-channel sources. This is done using a matrix decoder that drives three surround channels from the two in the original recording. For best results, Dolby Digital EX should be used with movies soundtracks recorded with

Dolby Digital Surround EX.

About Dolby Pro Logic IIx

Dolby Pro Logic IIx technology delivers a natural and immersing 7.1-channel listening experience to the home theater environment. A product of Dolby's expertise in surround sound and matrix decoding technologies, Dolby Pro

Logic IIx is a complete surround sound solution that maximizes the entertainment experience from stereo as well as

5.1-channel encoded sources.

SPEAKER PLACEMENT

The ideal surround speaker system for this unit is 7-speaker systems, using front left and right speakers, a center speaker, surround left and right speakers, surround back left and right speakers, and a subwoofer.

For best results we recommend that all front speakers be of the same type, with identical or similar driver units. This will deliver smooth pans across the front sound stage as the action moves from side to side.

Your center channel speaker is very important as over 80 % of the dialog from a typical motion picture emanates from the center channel.

It should possess similar sonic characteristics to the main speakers. Surround channel speakers need not be identical to the front channel speakers, but they should be of high quality.

The surround center speaker is useful for playback of

Dolby Digital Surround EX or DTS-ES. One of the benefits of both Dolby Digital and DTS is that surround channels are discrete full range, while they were frequency limited in earlier "Pro Logic" type systems.

Bass effects are an important part of home theater.

For optimal enjoyment a subwoofer should be used as it is optimized for low frequency reproduction. If you have full range front speakers, however, they may be used in place of a subwoofer with proper setting of the switches in the menu system.

Surround Mode Night Mode

One of the most important features of the LR-6500 is its ability to reproduce a full multichannel surround sound field from digital sources, analog matrix surroundencoded programs and standard stereo programs.

Surround modes may be changed at any time by using either the front panel or remote controller.

1

Press the SURR.M button (or the SURR.M button on the remote controller) from the front panel until the desired major surround mode group such as Dolby or

DTS is selected to select a new surround mode.

In may listening situations, you may find loud passages objectionable. Adjusting this setting allows you to compress the sounds into a range that you may find more suitable for a particular listening situation. Dolby Digital satisfies these needs through the dynamic range controlling. Select one of the followings to fit the individual listening situation of the audience.

1

The Night mode may be engaged when a Dolby

Digital DVD is playing by pressing the NIGHT button.

2

Press the SURR. SEL (n/6) button (or the SURR(v/^) on the remote controller) repeatedly until choose the specific individual.

• The Dolby Digital. Dolby Digital EX and DTS 5.1, DTS-

ES Matrix and DTS-ES Discrete modes may only be selected when a digital input is in use.

• The Dolby Pro Logic llx modes are available only when the LR-6500 has been configured for 6.1/7.1

operation by configuring the Surround Back speakers as either "Large" or "Small"

• When the 7.1 CH direct inputs are in use there is no surround processing, as these inputs take the analog output signals from an optional, external DVD-Audio or SACD player, or another source device and carry them straight through to the volume control without any further digital processing.

• To listen to a program in traditional two-channel stereo, using the front left and front right speakers only (plus the subwoofer, if installed and configured).

2

Press the 5/b buttons to select either the middle range of full-compression versions of the Night mode.

MAX:

Audio with fully compressed dynamic range.

MID:

Audio with partially compressed dynamic range.

OFF:

Audio with uncompressed dynamic range. Select this when you don't want to use the night mode.

• This function is effective only when playing back a

DVD disc recorded with Dolby Digital. This control has no effect on other discs.

NOTE: Once a program has been encoded with matrix surround information, it retains the surround information as long as the program is broadcast in stereo.

Thus, movies with surround sound may be decoded via any of the analog surround modes such as Dolby

Pro Logic ll Movie or DTS Neo:6 Cinema, when they are broadcast via conventional TV stations, cable, pay-TV and satellite transmission. In addition, a growing number of made-for-television programs, sports broadcasts, radio dramas and music CDs are also recorded in surround sound.

5-Channel Stereo, 7-Channel Stereo

This mode takes advantage of multiple speakers to place a stereo signal at both the front and back of a room.

Depending on whether the unit has been configured for either 5.1 or 6.1/7.1 operation, one of these modes, but not both, is available at any time. Ideal for playing music in situations such as a party, it places the same signal at the front-left and surround-left, and front-right and surroundright speakers.

The center channel is fed a summed mono mix of the inphase material of the left and right channels.

• Dimension: This setting alters the perceived depth of the surround field by creating a shallower presentation that appears to move sounds toward the front of the room, or a deeper presentation that appears to move the center of the sound field toward the back of the room. The setting of

"O" is a neutral default, with the range of adjustment shown as "R-3" for a deeper, rear-oriented sound.

• Panorama: Switch this setting on or off to add an enveloping wraparound presentation the increases the perception of sound along the sides of the room.

Stereo

This mode turns off all surround processing and presents the pure left- and right-channel presentation of two-channel stereo programs.

PURE STEREO: When Audio input is selected analog, the unit is in a "bypass" mode with no bass management.

Channel level adjustment is a key part of the configuration of any surround sound product. It is particularly important for a digital receiver such as the LR-6500, as correct outputs ensure that you hear soundtracks with proper directionality and intensity.

Listeners are often confused about the operation of the surround channels. While some assume that sound should always be coming from each speaker, most of the time there will be little or no sound in the surround channels.

This is because they are only used when a movie director or sound mixer specifically places sound there to create ambience or special effect, or to continue action from the front of the room to the rear. When the output levels are properly set, it is normal for surround speakers to operate only occasionally. Artificially increasing the volume to the rear speakers may destroy the illusion of an enveloping sound field that duplicates the way you hear sound in a movie theater or concert hall.

Before beginning the output level adjustment process, make certain that all speaker connections have been properly made. The system volume should be set to the level that you will use during a typical listening session
