True home theater sound
DTS
DTS (Digital Theater Systems) 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. In the DTS mode, the 5.1 channel digital input from a DTS CD, LD or DVD disc (carrying the DTS marking) can be played in Digital Surround. 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.
Dolby Digital (AC-3)
The DOLBY DIGITAL (AC-3) mode lets you enjoy full digital surround from software processed in the Dolby Digital (AC-3) format. Dolby Digital (AC-3) provides up to 5.1 channels of independent digital audio for better sound quality and more powerful presence than conventional Dolby Surround.
Dolby Pro Logic & Dolby 3 Stereo
This surround system reproduces theater-like surround sound from video software marked . The PRO LOGIC mode uses the built-in adaptive matrix circuit to steer the Left, Center, Right and Surround channel audio signals. The 3 STEREO mode will redirect the surround signal to the front left and right speakers when only the front and center speakers are used.
DSP surround modes
The DSP (Digital Signal Processor) used for this AV CONTROL CENTER incorporates a variety of high quality adjustable sound fields, like "ARENA", "THEATER", "JAZZ CLUB" to add the “presence” associated with an arena, theater, jazz club to the original signal. process either PCM or analog sources.
Multi channel music (SRS Circle Surround)
SRS Circle surround enables you to listen to multi channel sound from the stereo source. We assume you have already enjoyed listening to Dolby digital sound / DTS multi channel sound with your multi speakers. Now, this time try listening to the stereo source (ex. Audio CD)
using your multi speakers. You may discover a new type of “stereo” sound through SRS Circle Surround.

DTS disclaimer clause
DTS Digital Surround™ is a discrete 5.1 channel digital audio format available on CD, LD, and DVD software which consequently cannot be decoded and played back inside most CD, LD, or DVD players. For this reason, when DTS-encoded software is played back through the analog outputs of the CD, LD, or DVD player, excessive noise will be exhibited. To avoid possible damage to the audio system, proper precautions should taken by the consumer if the analog outputs are connected directly to an amplification system. To enjoy DTS Digital Surround™ playback, an external 5.1 channel DTS Digital Surround™ decoder system must be connected to the digital output (S/PDIF, AES/ EBU, or TosLink) of the CD, LD or DVD player. This unit is equipped with DTS Digital Surround™ decoder.

MIDNIGHT function
Any time you don't want to experience the loud and soft volume extremes of recorded sound (for example, late at night), use MIDNIGHT function to reduce volume extremes. This feature keeps loud, dramatic sound from being too loud (perhaps disturbing family members or neighbors) while ensuring that you can still hear whispered dialog or other soft sounds. Midnight function only works if you are listening to a Dolby Digital program that has been encorded with special compression data.

Functions of RDS
(Radio Data System)
RDS is a system which transmits useful information (digital data) for FM broadcasts together with the broadcast signal. Tuners and receivers designed for RDS reception can extract the information from the broadcast signal for use with various functions such as automatic display of the station name.
Functions made possible with RDS
The RDS indicator lights up when an RDS broadcast (signal) is received.
PTY (Program Type Identification) Search :
The tuner automatically searches for a station which is currently broadcasting a specified program type (genre).
e
EON (Enhanced Other Network) reservation
By selecting one of the two kinds of program previously, the tuner switches automatically to a station broadcasting that kind of program whenever it starts broadcasting. When the broadcasting completes, the tuner returns automatically to the originally-received station.

This AV CONTROL CENTER incorporates 7 different sound modes to let you enjoy surround sound with a wide variety of program sources. The Dolby Digital (AC-3) and Dolby Pro Logic surround sound let you enjoy theater-like surround effects when
48
you play Dolby Digital (AC-3) and Dolby Surround program sources (like Laserdiscs and DVDs). Dolby 3 Stereo creates a panoramic frontal sound field. The Digital Signal Processing (DSP) modes let you create a variety of different sonic environments from almost any type of program source. To obtain the best possible surround sound, be sure to complete "Setup for surround play (SET UP)" before using the surround modes.

Surround modes

£
DTS
The DTS multi-channel audio format is available on CD, LD and DVD software. DTS is a strictly digital format and can not 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 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 described 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.
SRS Circle Surround
The Circle Surround System was developed to provide the highest level of sonic performance available in a Matrix system. Audio for music was not the focus for other multichannel formats and, as a result, there is a serious compromise in the performance of these systems. That is not to say that the Circle Surround system is only for music–other applications such as Cinema, Home Theater, multichan­nel broadcast, video tape and any other type of audio delivery can take advantage of the superior performance of Circle Surround. Since Circle Surround provides proper performance for music, the sonic impact for all other applications is also improved. Circle Surround 5.1 is capable of delivering true five-channel impact.

Dolby Digital (AC-3)
The Dolby Digital (AC-3) surround format lets you enjoy up to 5.1 channels of digital surround sound from Dolby Digital (AC-3) program sources (such as Laserdisc software marked with previous Dolby surround, Dolby Digital (AC-3) provides even better sound quality, greater spatial accuracy, and improved dynamic range.
Note
Although a full set of speakers (front left, right, and center, Surround left and right, and a subwoofer) is required for true 5.1 channel Dolby Digital (AC-3) surround sound, this AV CONTROL CENTER lets you enjoy Dolby Digital (AC-3) (and Dolby Pro Logic) program sources, even if you connect only the front speakers.

Dolby 3 Stereo
Dolby 3 Stereo is available for systems that do not have surround speakers. When in the Dolby 3 Stereo mode the surround information is redirected to the front left and right speakers. This mode is designed for use with Dolby Surround program sources, but can also improve sound field unity for programs that are not Dolby Surround encoded. Dialog positioning and sound image definition, however, may not be as accurate when used with programs that are not Dolby Surround encoded.
DSP mode
The DSP mode lets you add the atmosphere of a live concert or hall to PCM or analog 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, THEATER, JAZZ CLUB mode the next time you watch a concert or sporting event!
DVD 6-channel INPUT 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.
