Special features
True home theater sound
DTS 96/24
This receiver incorporates a wide variety of surround modes to bring you
maximum enjoyment from your video software. Select a surround mode
according to your equipment or the software you are going to play and
DTS 96/24 made it possible to achieve a wide frequency range of over
40 kHz by increasing the sampling frequency to 96 or 88.2 kHz.
Moreover, DTS 96/24’s ability of 24 bit resolution offers the same
frequency band and dynamic range as 96 kHz/24 bit PCM.
DTS 96/24 is, as with conventional DTS Surround, compatible with
multi-channels. Therefore, sources recorded using DTS 96/24
technologies can be played in high sampling frequency, multi-channel
audio with ordinary DVDs and CDs.

cinematic experience in a home environment.

THX Surround EX
Neo:6
During THX Surround EX mode, film soundtracks that have been
encoded with Dolby Digital Surround EX technology are able to repro-
duce an extra channel which has been added during the mixing of the
program. This channel is called Surround Back.
Neo:6 is a new technology which was developed by DTS. It can produce
high grade 6 channels surround with an astonishing fidelity from 2
channels content. Neo:6 has 2 mode, "CINEMA" mode is for movie
playback and "MUSIC" mode is for music playback.
THX Surround EX mode activates proprietary THX features that help
recreate the cinematic experience in a home environment.

DSP surround modes
The DSP (Digital Signal Processor) used for this receiver incorporates
a variety of high quality adjustable sound fields, like “ARENA”, “JAZZ
CLUB”, “THEATER”, “STADIUM” and “DISCO”. It is compatible with
almost any kind of program source.
Dolby Digital and Dolby Digital EX
The DOLBY DIGITAL mode lets you enjoy full digital surround from
software processed in the Dolby Digital format. Dolby Digital provides
up to 5.1 channels of independent digital audio for better sound quality
and more powerful presence than conventional Dolby Surround.
As for Dolby Digital EX, it creates six full-bandwidth output channels
from the 5.1 channel sources. This is done using a matrix decoder that
derives three surround channels from the two in the original recording.
For best results, Dolby Digital EX should be used with movie soundtracks
recorded with Dolby Digital Surround EX.
DVD 6-channel input
If you own a DVD player equipped with 6-channel output, this receiver
allows you to obtain the full surround sound impact of DVD source
material featuring multi-channel encoding. Since the source signals are
digital and each channel is input independently, the resulting ambience
is far superior to what can be achieved with conventional surround
sound systems.
Dolby PRO LOGIC IIx and Dolby PRO LOGIC II
DOLBY PRO LOGIC II, whilst totally compatible with its predecessor
PRO LOGIC, provides greater advantages in surround sound. It allows
user to enjoy the conventional stereo or Dolby Surround with a
convincing “5.1 like” presentation. PRO LOGIC II offers special features
for controlling the overall spatial, dimensionality and frontal sound field
imaging. PRO LOGIC II produces an impressive surround sound from
ACTIVE EQ
ACTIVE EQ mode will produce a more dynamic sound quality in any
condition. You can enjoy a more impressive sound effect when ACTIVE
EQ is turned on.
SPEAKER EQ
video software marked
and three-dimensional space
SPEAKER EQ function is to adjust the receiver’s audio output
characteristics with the speakers’ characteristics which differs
depending on the size of the speakers. When activating the SPEAKER
EQ function, you will be able to enjoy a more natural and dynamic sound
experience even with small size speakers.
from music CD. When listening to music, you will be able to enjoy the
experience of sheer STEREO surround sound.
DOLBY PRO LOGIC IIx enhanced DOLBY PRO LOGIC II’s features.
It creates 6.1 channel and 7.1 channel surround sound from stereo or
5.1 channel signals. This feature provides you an astonishing ambience
effect which makes you feel you are surrounded by natural sound.
Especially 7.1 channel surround sound can produce real back sound
from Surround Back speakers.
Universal IR (InfraRed) remote control
In addition to the basic receiver, the remote control supplied with this
receiver can also operate almost all of your remote controllable audio
and video components. Just follow the simple setup procedure to
register the components you have connected.
DTS and DTS-ES
DTS (Digital Theater System) is a 5.1 channel digital audio format that
provides five full spectrum channels and one low-frequency (subwoofer)
channel for unprecedented clarity, optimum channel separation and a
(wide) dynamic range.
Video up conversion
This receiver can convert the incoming composit video signals to S-
Video signal.
If your monitor TV has S-Video jacks, it is not necessary to do the
composit video connections, just use an S-Video cord to connect the
receiver and your monitor TV.
DTS-ES (Extended Surround) presents 6.1 channels surround system
with additional Surround Back channel which evolved from the
conventional 5.1 channels surround system. DTS-ES format that was
recorded in DVD, CD or LD comprises of two modes. DTS-ES Discrete
6.1 produce the discrete surround back which is completely independent
and DTS-ES Matrix 6.1 produces the surround back which synthesized
within the left and right surround channels using matrix technology.
DTS-ES has perfect compatibility with the conventional 5.1 channels
surround system. 6.1 channels surround with an additional surround
back presents a more natural presence and surround effects by
increasing the impression of the sound image from back.
Important:
When a DTS disc is played on a CD, LD or DVD player, noise may be
output from the analog output. It is recommended that you connect the
digital output of the player to the digital input of this unit.

In “FULL AUTO” mode (AUTO DETECT indicator light up), the
receiver detects the digital or analog input signals automatically.
Priority is given to digital signal during input mode selection. The
receiver will select the input mode and listening mode automatically
during playback to match the type of input signal (Dolby Digital,
PCM, DTS) and the speaker setting. The OPTICAL and COAXIAL
indicator on the display will light up when digital signal is detected.
If the input signal is analog, the ANALOG indicator will light up.
To keep the receiver set to the currently selected listening mode,
use the INPUT MODE key to select “DIGITAL MANUAL” (manual
sound). However, even when this setting is selected, there may be
cases in which the listening mode is selected automatically to
match a Dolby Digital source signal depending on the combination
of listening mode and source signal.
At DIGITAL MANUAL, if the audio reproduction stops in the
middle due to change in the input signals, etc. press the LISTEN
MODE knob.
If the INPUT MODE key is pressed quickly, sound may not be
produced. Press the INPUT MODE key again.

Dolby Digital
DTS
The Dolby Digital surround format lets you enjoy up to 5.1
channels of digital surround sound from Dolby Digital program
The DTS multi-channel audio format is available on CD, LD and
DVD software. DTS is a strictly digital format and cannot be
decoded inside most CD, LD or DVD players. For this reason, if you
attempt to listen to DTS encoded software through the analog
output of your new CD, LD or DVD player, you will experience
digital noise in most cases. This noise can be quite loud if the
analog output is connected directly to a high power amplification
system. Proper measures for playing the digital output as de-
scribed below should be taken to avoid this situation. To enjoy DTS
Digital Surround playback, an external 5.1 channel DTS Digital
Surround decoder system or an amplifier with a built-in DTS Digital
Surround decoder must be connected to the digital output (S/P
DIF, AES/EBU or TosLink) of a CD, LD or DVD player.
sources (such as Laserdisc or DVD software marked
).
Compared with previous Dolby surround, Dolby Digital provides
even better sound quality, greater spatial accuracy, and improved
dynamic range.
Dolby Digital EX
Dolby Digital EX is an extension of Dolby Digital technology, Dolby
Digital EX creates six full-bandwidth output channels from 6.1-
channel sources. This is done using a matrix decoder that derives
three surround channels from the two in the original recording.
This is achieved by using three different surround signals, sur-
round left, surround right, and surround back, each driving its own
array of speakers. Think of it as adding a center channel for the rear
speakers, which give more diffuse and natural surround effect,
even if you wanted the ability to completely encircle the audience
with sound, positioning sound effects exactly where they would
be heard in real life. For best results, Dolby Digital EX should be
used with movie soundtracks recorded with Dolby Digital Sur-
round EX which contain a digital flag that will automatically
activate this feature. However, for titles released prior to late
2001, this feature has to be activated manually.
All models are incorporated with the DTS decoder.
DTS-ES
DTS-ES (Digital Theater System-Extended Surround) presents 6.1
channels surround system with additional Surround Back channel
which evolved from the conventional 5.1 channels surround
system. DTS-ES format that was recorded in DVD, CD or LD
comprises of two modes. DTS-ES Discrete 6.1 produces the
discrete surround back which is completely independent and DTS-
ES Matrix 6.1 produces the surround back which synthesised
within the left and right surround channels using matrix technol-
ogy. DTS-ES has perfect compatibility with the conventional 5.1
channels surround system. 6.1 channels surround with an addi-
tional surround back presents a more natural presence and sur-
round effects by increasing the impression of the sound image
from back. Programs which are recorded using DTS-ES technol-
ogy consist of information flags which will be able to control the
Discrete and Matrix mode. Thus, it can automatically select the
best matched mode.
Although only Dolby Digital soundtracks incorporate a separate
low frequency channel, connecting a subwoofer will also improve
deep bass performance in the other surround modes.
The indication “LFE” appears in the display when a signal is being
input for this channel.
Neo:6
Dolby PRO LOGIC IIx and Dolby PRO LOGIC II
Dolby Pro Logic II was designed specifically to provide a new
sense of spatiality, directionality and articulation of sounds from
Dolby Surround encoded sources (such as video and Laserdisc
Neo:6 is a new technology which was developed by DTS. It can
produce high grade 6 channels surround with an astonishing
fidelity from 2 channels content. Neo:6 has 2 modes, “CINEMA”
mode is for movie playback and “MUSIC” mode is for music
playback.
software marked
). This is achieved with an intel-
ligent, built-in feedback logic design, a matrix surround decoding
and the decoding of stereo, full bandwidth surround outputs.
DOLBY PRO LOGIC IIx enhanced DOLBY PRO LOGIC II’s fea-
tures.
DTS 96/24
DTS 96/24 made it possible to achieve a wide frequency range of
over 40 kHz by increasing the sampling frequency to 96 or 88.2
kHz. Moreover, DTS 96/24’s ability of 24 bit resolution offers the
same frequency band and dynamic range as 96 kHz/24 bit PCM.
DTS 96/24 is, as with conventional DTS Surround, compatible with
multi-channels. Therefore, sources recorded using DTS 96/24
technologies can be played in high sampling frequency, multi-
channel audio with ordinary DVDs and CDs.
It creates 6.1 channel and 7.1 channel surround sound from stereo
or 5.1 channel signals. This feature provides you an astonishing
ambience effect which makes you feel you are surrounded by
natural sound. Especially 7.1 channel surround sound can produce
real back sound from Surround Back speakers.
The PRO LOGICIIx modes programmed into this model are
“MOVIE”, “MUSIC” and “GAME”. The PRO LOGIC II modes
programmed into this model are “MOVIE”, “MUSIC”, “GAME”
and “PRO LOGIC”. The “MOVIE” mode has preset characteris-
tics to produce a calibrated, high-level surround sound playback
while the “MUSIC” mode has user-adjustable characteristics to
offer the three optional controls, like “Dimension”, “Center Width”
and “Panorama” modes to allow optimization of the soundfields
as desired. The “Dimension” control allows the user to gradually
adjust the soundfield either towards the front or towards the rear;
the “Center Width” control allows various adjustment of the left-
center-right speakers’ balance; the “Panorama” mode extends
the front stereo image to include the surround speakers for an
exciting “wraparound” effect with side wall imaging.
DTS has a “.1” or “LFE” channel.
The indication “LFE” appears in the display when a signal is being
input for this channel.
Note
LFE = Low Frequency Effects. This channel delivers separate non-
directional bass signals to the subwoofer for more dynamic deep
bass sound effects.
The “GAME” mode provides surrounded and exciting sound
when you enjoy game or TV. Especially in PRO LOGIC IIx “GAME”
mode, base sound not only from Front and Center but also from
Surround channel is added to Subwoofer. This provides even
more dynamic surround effects.

Ambience effects
THX
Movie soundtracks are mixed in special movie theatres called dub-
bing stages and are designed to be played back in movie theatres with
similar equipment and conditions. This same soundtrack is then
transferred directly onto Laserdisc, VHS tape, DVD, etc., and is not
changed for playback in a small home theatre environment.
THX engineers developed patented technologies to accurately trans-
late the sound from the movie theatre environment into the home,
correcting the tonal and spatial errors that occur. Activate THX
whenever watching a movie that was intended for the playback in a
Cinema. On this product, when the THX indicator is on, the following
THX features are automatically added in movie playback modes (e.g.
Dolby Digital+THX, DTS+THX, THX Surround EX, etc):
THX Surround EX mode
THX Surround EX-Dolby Digital Surround EX is a joint development of
Dolby Laboratories and the THX division of Lucasfilm Ltd.
In a movie theatre, film soundtracks that have been encoded with
Dolby Digital Surround EX technology are able to reproduce an extra
channel which has been added during the mixing of the program. This
channel, called Surround Back, places sounds behind the listener in
addition to the currently available front left, front center, front right,
surround right, surround left and subwoofer channels. This additional
channel provides the opportunity for more detailed imaging behind
the listener and brings more depth, spacious ambience and sound
localization than ever before.
Movies that were created using the Dolby Digital Surround EX
technology, when released into the home consumer market may
exhibit a Dolby Digital Surround EX logo on the packaging. A list of
movies created using this technology can be found on the Dolby web
Re-equalization (Re-EQ)
The tonal balance of a film soundtrack will be excessively bright and
harsh when played back over audio equipment in the home because
film soundtracks were designed to be played back in large movie
theatres using very different professional equipment. Re-Equaliza-
tion restores the correct tonal balance for watching a movie soundtrack
in a small home environment.
Only receiver and controller product bearing the THX Surround EX
logo, when in the THX Surround EX mode, faithfully reproduce this
new technology in the home.
Timbre Matching
This product may also engage the “THX Surround EX” mode during
the playback of 5.1 channel material that is not Dolby Digital Surround
EX encoded. In such case the information delivered to the Surround
Back channel will be program dependent and may or may not be very
pleasing depending on the particular soundtrack and the taste of the
individual listener.
The human ear changes our perception of a sound depending on the
direction from which the sound is coming. In a movie theatre, there
is an array of surround speakers so that the surround information is
all around you. In a home theatre, you use only two speakers located
to the side of your head. The Timbre Matching feature filters the
information going to the surround speakers so that they more closely
match the tonal characteristics of the sound coming from the front
speakers. This ensures seamless panning between the front and
surround speakers.
DSP mode
Adaptive Decorrelation
The DSP mode lets you add the atmosphere of a live concert or hall
to almost any type of program source. These modes are particularly
effective when used with stereo program sources, like CD, television,
and FM radio. You might enjoy trying the ARENA, JAZZ CLUB,
THEATER, STADIUM or DISCO mode the next time you watch a
concert or sporting event!
In a movie theatre, a large number of surround speakers help create
an enveloping surround sound experience, but in a home theatre
there are usually only two speakers. This can make the surround
speakers sound like headphones that lack spaciousness and envelop-
ment. The surround sounds will also collapse into the closest speaker
as you move away from the middle seating position. Adaptive
Decorrelation slightly changes one surround channel's time and
phase relationship with respect to the other surround channel. This
expands the listening position and creates - with only two speakers
- the same spacious surround experience as in a movie theatre.
What's DSP mode?
DSP stands for Digital Signal Processor.
The way a sound is heard in an actual environment depends on a
variety of different factors. One of the most important is reverberation
(the act of decaying elements of sound echoing in various places).
The DSP modes produce the feeling of presence by using the DSP to
create reverberation, without spoiling the sound quality of the original
signal.
THX Select
Before any home theatre component can be THX Select certified, it
must incorporate all the features above and also pass a rigorous
series of quality and performance tests. Only then can a product
feature the THX Select logo. Hundreds of parameters in both the
digital and analog domain are tested and required to meet very
specific high quality standards which is your guarantee that the Home
Theatre products you purchase will give you superb performance for
many years to come. THX Select requirements cover every aspect of
the product including pre-amplifier and power amplifier performance
and operation.
DVD 6-channel mode
Using a DVD player or the like equipped with six (5.1) output channels
and the receiver, you can enjoy multi-channel encoded DVD source
material in all its splendor. Since the source signals are digital and
each channel is input independently, the resulting sound quality,
sense of spaciousness, and dynamic range are superb.
The indication "6CH INPUT" appears in the display during DVD 6-
channel mode selection.
