(Refer to “When selecting the SPEAKER CONFIGURATION” on page 46.)
BYPASS mode: Audio signals bypass signal processing circuits for surround sound and are palyed in stereo mode.
■Notes:
• When the selected decoding mode is not matched to the input signal format, the indicator of the signal being input
flickers, meaning the required process cannot be performed and no sound is heard. Therefore, be sure to select the
required decoding mode and the available surround mode according to the input signal format.
• When the 8 CH DIRECT is selected as an input source, the decoding and surround modes cannot be selected.
• When the pure audio function is activated, the surround mode cannot be selected.
• When 96 kHz PCM signals are input, the stereo mode is automatically selected.
When the Dolby surround mode is selected
• Combined with the original surround mode , the Dolby surround mode can be selected as follows:
* In case that the HEADPHONE SELECTOR button is set to speaker on mode.
→ (PL IIx MOVIE ↔ PL IIx MUSIC ↔ PL IIx GAME ↔ ) DOLBY VS~ ↔ NONE(Dolby surround off) ←
(original surround mode)
( ) : Impossible only when surround back channel is set to “None”.
* In case that the HEADPHONE SELECTOR button is set to speaker off mode.
→ DOLBY HEADPHONE 1 ↔ DOLBY HEADPHONE 2 ↔ DOLBY HEADPHONE 3 ↔ NONE(Dolby Headphone off) ←
(original surround mode)
When the DYNAMIC RANGE is selected
• This function compresses the dynamic range of previously specified parts of the Dolby Digital sound track (with
extremely high volume) to minimize the difference in volume between the specified and non-specified parts.
This makes it easy to hear all of the sound track when watching movies at night at low levels.
• The compression rate changes as follows :
Notes :
• Only while the digital signals from the Dolby Digital program source are being input, the dynamic range function
can be activated.
• In some Dolby Digital software, this function may not be available.
