Pure Audio

In this mode, the display and video circuitry are turned off, minimizing pos-

sible noise sources for the ultimate in high-fidelity audio reproduction. (As

the video circuitry is turned off, only video signals input through HDMI IN

can be output from HDMI OUT.)

ZXC

Direct In this mode, audio from the input source is output without surround-sound

processing. The “Sp Config” (presence of speakers), “Sp Distance” and

“A/V Sync” settings are enabled, but much of the processing set via HOME

is disabled. See “Advanced Setup” for more details (➔ 38).

Stereo Sound is output by the front left and right speakers and subwoofer.

ZXC

Mono Use this mode when watching an old movie with a mono soundtrack, or use

it with the foreign language soundtracks recorded in the left and right chan-

nels of some movies. It can also be used with DVDs or other sources contain-

ing multiplexed audio, such as karaoke DVDs.

Multichannel This mode is for use with PCM multichannel sources.

Dolby Pro Logic IIx

Dolby Pro Logic II

Dolby Pro Logic IIx expands any 2-channel source for 7.1-channel play-

back. It provides a very natural and seamless surround-sound experience that

fully envelops the listener. As well as music and movies, video games can

also benefit from the dramatic spatial effects and vivid imaging. If you’re not

using any surround back speakers, Dolby Pro Logic II will be used instead

of Dolby Pro Logic IIx.

• Dolby PLIIx Movie

Use this mode with any stereo or Dolby Surround (Pro Logic) movie (e.g.,

TV, DVD, VHS).

• Dolby PLIIx Music

Use this mode with any stereo or Dolby Surround (Pro Logic) music source

(e.g., CD, radio, cassette, TV, VHS, DVD).

• Dolby PLIIx Game

Use this mode with video games, especially those that bear the Dolby Pro

Logic II logo.

SXCN

• Dolby PLIIx Movie and Dolby PLIIx Music

These modes use the Dolby Pro Logic IIx modes to expand 5.1-channel

sources for 7.1-channel playback.

Dolby Pro Logic IIz

Height

Dolby Pro Logic IIz Height is designed to more effectively use existing

program material when height channel speaker outputs are present. Dolby

Pro Logic IIz Height can be used to upmix a variety of sources from movies

and music, but are particularly well-suited to upmix game content.

Dolby EX These modes expand 5.1-channel sources for 6.1/7.1-channel playback.

They’re especially suited to Dolby EX soundtracks that include a matrix-

encoded surround back channel. The additional channel adds an extra dimen-

sion and provides an enveloping surround sound experience, perfect for

rotating and fly-by sound effects.

Dolby Digital In this mode, audio from the input source is output without surround-sound

processing. “Sp Config” (presence of speakers), “Crossover”, “Sp Dis-

tance”, “A/V Sync” and much of the processing set via HOME are enabled.

See “Advanced Setup” for more details (➔ 38).
