Using the Listening Modes
—Continued
About the Listening Modes
With its built-in surround-sound decoders and DSP pro-
grams, the AV receiver can transform your home listen-
ing room into a movie theater or concert hall.
Direct
The selected input source is output directly with minimal
processing for a pure sound.
Stereo
The selected input source is processed as a stereo signal
and output by the front left and right speakers and the
subwoofer.
Mono
Use this mode when watching an old movie with a mono
soundtrack, or to select multilingual soundtracks
recorded in the left and right channels of some movies.
It can also be used when playing a DVD or other source
with multiplexed audio, such as a karaoke DVD.
Dolby Pro Logic II Movie
Use this mode with DVDs and vid-
eos that bear the Dolby Surround
logo or TV shows that feature Dolby Surround. You can
also use this mode with stereo movies or TV shows and
the AV receiver will create a 5.1 surround mix from the
2-channel stereo.
Dolby Pro Logic II Music
Use this mode to add 5.1 surround to stereo sources such
as music CDs and DVDs.
Dolby Pro Logic II Game
Use this mode when playing game discs.
Dolby Digital
With this format you can experience the
same superb sound that you get at a movie
theater or concert hall. Use this mode with DVDs that
bear the Dolby Digital logo.
DTS
This digital surround format offers a sur-
round sound experience with exceptional
fidelity. It uses compressed digital audio
data, with six discrete channels (5.1), and the
ability to handle large amounts of audio data while
remaining faithful to the original. DTS provides very
high-quality sound. You’ll need a DTS compatible DVD
player in order to enjoy DTS material. Use this mode
with DVDs and CDs that bear the DTS logo.
Neo:6
This mode provides 5.1-channel playback from 2-chan-
nel sources. It offers five full-bandwidth channels with
excellent separation. There are two modes of operation:
Cinema mode for movies, and Music mode for listening
to music.
Cinema mode simulates the realistic sense of movement
that you get with 5.1-channel surround sound sources.
Use this mode with videos, DVDs, and TV shows that
feature stereo sound.
Music mode uses the surround channels to simulate a
natural sound field that cannot be produced with conven-
tional stereo. Use this mode with stereo material such as
music CDs.
Onkyo Original DSP Modes
Mono Movie
This mode is suitable for use with old movies and other
mono sound sources. The center speaker outputs the
sound as it is, while reverb is applied to the sound output
by the other speakers, giving presence to even mono
material.
Orchestra
Suitable for classical or operatic music. The surround
channels are emphasized in order to widen the stereo
image. In addition, it simulates the natural reverberation
of a large hall.
Unplugged
Suitable for acoustic instrument sounds, vocals, and jazz
music. By emphasizing the front stereo image, it simu-
lates the stage-front experience.
Studio-Mix
Suitable for rock and pop music. Listening to music in
this mode creates a lively sound field with a powerful
acoustic image, like being at a club or rock concert.
TV Logic
Adds realistic acoustics to TV shows produced in a TV
studio. In addition, it adds surround effects to the entire
sound and adds clarity to voices.
All Ch Stereo
Ideal for background music. The front, surround, and
surround back channels create a stereo image that fills
the entire listening area.
Full Mono
In this mode, all speakers output mono audio, so the
music sounds the same regardless of where you are.
This illustration shows which speakers are active in
each listening mode.
