Description
DTS was introduced in 1994 to provide 5.1 channels of dis­crete digital audio into home theater systems. DTS brings you premium quality discrete multi-channel digi­tal sound to both movies and music. DTS is a multi-channel sound system designed to create full range digital sound reproduction. The no compromise DTS digital process sets the standard of quality for cinema sound by delivering an exact copy of the studio master recordings to neighborhood and home theaters. Now,every moviegoer can hear the sound exactly as the moviemaker intended. DTS can be enjoyed in the home for either movies or music on of DVD's, LD's, and CD's.
"DTS"and "DTS Digital Surround" are registered trademarks of Digital Theater Systems, Inc.
The advantages of discrete multichannel systems over matrix are well known. But even in homes equipped for discrete multichannel, there remains a need for high-quality matrix decoding. This is because of the large library of matrix surround motion pictures available on disc and on VHS tape; and analog television broadcasts. The typical matrix decoder of today derives a center chan­nel and a mono surround channel from two-channel matrix stereo material. It is better than a simple matrix in that it includes steering logic to improve separation, but because of its mono, band-limited surround it can be disappointing to users accustomed to discrete multichannel.
Neo:6 offers several important improvements as follow.
< Neo:6 provides up to six full-band channels of matrix
decoding from stereo matrix material. Users with 6.1 and
5.1 systems will derive six and five separate channels, respectively. corresponding to the standard home-the­ater speaker layouts.
< Neo:6 technology allows various sound elements within
a channel or channels to be steered separately, and in a way which follows naturally from the original presenta­tion.
< Neo:6 offers a music mode to expand stereo nonmatrix
recordings into the five-or six-channel layout, in a way which does not diminish the subtlety and integrity of the original stereo recording.
DTS-ES Extended Surround is a new multi-channel digital signal format developed by Digital Theater Systems Inc. While offering high compatibility with the conventional DTS Digital Surround format, DTS-ES Extended Surround greatly improves the 360-degree surround impression and space expression thanks to further expanded surround sig­nals. This format has been used professionally in movie the­aters since 1999. In addition to the 5.1surround channels (FL, FR, C, SL, SR and LFE), DTS-ES Extended Surround also offers the SB (Surround Back) channel for surround playback with a total of 6.1 channels. DTS-ES Extended Surround includes two signal formats with different surround signal recording methods, as DTS-ES Discrete 6.1 and DTS-ES Matrix 6.1.
"DTS", "DTS-ES Extended Surround" and "Neo:6" are trade­marks of Digital Theater Systems, Inc.
The stereo CD is a 16-bit medium with sampling at 44.1 kHz. Professional audio has been 20- or 24- bit for some time, and there is increasing interest in higher sampling rates both for recording and for delivery into the home. Greater bit depths provide extended dynamic range. Higher sam­pling rates allow wider frequency response and the use of anti-alias and reconstruction filters with more favorable aural characteristics. DTS 96/24 allows for 5.1channel sound tracks to be encod­ed at a rate of 96kHz/24bits on DVD Video titles. When DVD-video appeared, it became possible to deliver 24-bit, 96 kHz audio into the home, but only in two channels, and with serious limitations on picture. This capability has had little use. DVD-audio allows 96/24 in six channels, but a new player is needed, and only analog outputs are provided, necessitat­ing the use of the D/A converters, and analog electronics provided in the player. DTS 96/24 offers the following:
1. Sound quality transparent to the original 96/24 master.
2. Full backward compatibility with all existing decoders. (Existing decoders will output a 48 kHz signal)
3. No new player required: DTS 96/24 can be carried on DVD-video, or in the video zone of DVD-audio, accessible to all DVD players.
4. 96/24 5.1-channel sound with full-quality full motion video, for music programs and motion picture soundtracks on DVD-video.

SPEAKER PLACEMENT
The ideal surround speaker system for this unit is 7-speak­er systems, using front left and right speakers, a center speaker, surround left and right speakers, surround back left and right speakers, and a subwoofer. For best results we recommend that all front speakers be of the same type, with identical or similar driver units. This will deliver smooth pans across the front sound stage as the action moves from side to side. Your center channel speaker is very important as over 80 % of the dialog from a typical motion picture emanates from the center channel. It should possess similar sonic characteristics to the main speakers. Surround channel speakers need not be identi­cal to the front channel speakers, but they should be of high quality. The surround center speaker is useful for playback of Dolby Digital Surround EX or DTS-ES. One of the benefits of both Dolby Digital and DTS is that surround channels are discrete full range, while they were frequency limited in earlier "Pro Logic" type systems. Bass effects are an important part of home theater. For optimal enjoyment a subwoofer should be used as it is optimized for low frequency reproduction. If you have full range front speakers, however, they may be used in place of a subwoofer with proper setting of the switches in the menu system.
Front left and right speakers
We recommend to set the front L and R speakers with 45­60 degrees from the listening position.
Center speaker
Align the front line of the center speaker with the front L/R speakers. Or place the center speaker a little backward from the line.
Surround left and right speakers
When the LR-6500 is used in surround operation, the pre­ferred location for surround speakers are on the side walls of the room, at or slightly behind the listening position. The center of the speaker should face into the room.

Dolby Digital identifies the use of Dolby Digital audio coding for such consumer formats as DVD and DTV. As with film sound, Dolby Digital can provide up to five full-range chan­nels for left, center, and right screen channels, independent left and right surround channels, and a sixth ( ".1") channel for low-frequency effects.
Dolby Surround Pro Logic II is an improved matrix decoding technology that provides better spatiality and directionality on Dolby Surround program material; provides a convincing three-dimensional soundfield on conventional stereo music recordings; and is ideally suited to bring the surround expe­rience to automotive sound. While conventional surround programming is fully compatible with Dolby Surround Pro Logic II decoders, soundtracks will be able to be encoded specifically to take full advantage of Pro Logic II playback, including separate left and right surround channels. (Such material is also compatible with conventional Pro Logic decoders.)
Dolby Digital EX creates six full-bandwidth output channels from 5.1-channel sources. This is done using a matrix decoder that drives three surround channels from the two in the original recording. For best results, Dolby Digital EX should be used with movies soundtracks recorded with Dolby Digital Surround EX.
About Dolby Pro Logic IIx
Dolby Pro Logic IIx technology delivers a natural and immersing 7.1-channel listening experience to the home theater environment. A product of Dolby's expertise in sur­round sound and matrix decoding technologies, Dolby Pro Logic IIx is a complete surround sound solution that maxi­mizes the entertainment experience from stereo as well as
5.1-channel encoded sources.

Surround back speakers
Surround back speakers are required when a full 7.1-chan­nel system is installed. Speakers should be placed on a rear wall, behind the lis­tening position. The center of the speaker should face into the room.
Subwoofer
We recommend using a subwoofer to have maximum bass effect. Subwoofer bears only low frequency range so you can place it any where in the room.
HEIGHT OF THE SPEAKER UNITS
Front left and right speakers, and a center speaker
Align the tweeters and mid-range drivers on the three front speakers at the same height, as best as possible.
Surround left and right speakers, and surround back speaker
Place the surround left, right and surround back speakers higher than your ears by about 70cm -1m. Also place the speakers at the same height, as best as pos­sible.
Note:
• Use magnetically-shielded speakers for front left, right and the center speakers when the speakers are installed near the TV and the TV is a monitor type.
CONNECTING SPEAKER WIRE
1. Strip away approx. 10 mm of wire insulation.
2. Twist the bared wire ends tight, to prevent short circuits.
3. Loosen the knob by turning it counterclockwise.
4. Insert the bare part of the wire into the hole in side of each terminal.
5. Tighten the knob by turning it clockwise to secure the wire.
Caution:
• Be sure to use speakers with the specified impedance as
shown on the rear panel of this unit.
• To prevent damage to circuitry, do not let the bare speak-
er wires touch each other and do not let them touch any metal part of this unit.
• Do not touch the speaker terminals when the power is on.
It may cause you to receive an electric shocks.
• Do not connect more than one speaker cable to one
speaker terminal. Doing so may damage this unit.

Surround Mode
One of the most important features of the LR-6500 is its ability to reproduce a full multichannel surround sound field from digital sources, analog matrix surround­encoded programs and standard stereo programs. Surround modes may be changed at any time by using either the front panel or remote controller.
Press the SURR.M button (or the SURR.M button on the remote controller) from the front panel until the desired major surround mode group such as Dolby or DTS is selected to select a new surround mode.
Press the SURR. SEL
(n/6) button (or the SURR(v/^)
on the remote controller) repeatedly until choose the specific individual.
• The Dolby Digital. Dolby Digital EX and DTS 5.1, DTS­ES Matrix and DTS-ES Discrete modes may only be selected when a digital input is in use.
• The Dolby Pro Logic llx modes are available only when the LR-6500 has been configured for 6.1/7.1 operation by configuring the Surround Back speak­ers as either "Large" or "Small"
• When the 7.1 CH direct inputs are in use there is no surround processing, as these inputs take the analog output signals from an optional, external DVD-Audio or SACD player, or another source device and carry them straight through to the volume control without any further digital processing.
• To listen to a program in traditional two-channel stereo, using the front left and front right speakers only (plus the subwoofer, if installed and configured).
NOTE: Once a program has been encoded with matrix surround information, it retains the surround informa­tion as long as the program is broadcast in stereo. Thus, movies with surround sound may be decoded via any of the analog surround modes such as Dolby Pro Logic ll Movie or DTS Neo:6 Cinema, when they are broadcast via conventional TV stations, cable, pay-TV and satellite transmission. In addition, a grow­ing number of made-for-television programs, sports broadcasts, radio dramas and music CDs are also recorded in surround sound.

System Configuration
(OSD - On Screen Display)
Before using the unit, you will probably want to change the settings for most inputs so that they are properly configured to reflect the use of digital or analog inputs, the type of speakers installed and the surround mode specifics of your home theater system. Remember that since the LR-6500 memorizes the settings for each input individually, you will need to make these adjustments for each input used. However, once they are made, fur­ther adjustment is only required when system compo­nents are changed.
Making Configuration Adjustments

FUNCTION SETUP
You can select associate one of the digital inputs with the selected input source. Some digital video input sources, such as a cable box or HDTV set-top, may change between analog and digital outputs, depending on which channel is in use. The LR-6500's Auto Polling feature allows you to avoid losing the audio feed when this happens by permitting both analog and digital connections to the same source on the unit Digital audio is the default, and the unit will auto­matically switch to the analog audio if the digital audio stream stops.
SURROUND SETUP
Dolby Digital
Available only with digital input sources encoded with Dolby Digital data. It provides up to five separate main audio channels and a special dedicated low-frequency effects (LFE) channel.
Dolby Digital EX
Available when the receiver is configured for 6.1/7.1-chan­nel operation, Dolby Digital EX is the latest version of Dolby Digital. When used with movies or other programs that have special encoding, Dolby Digital EX reproduces specially encoded soundtracks so that a full 6.1/7.1 sound field is available. When the receiver is set for 6.1/7.1 operation and a Dolby Digital signal is present, the EX mode is automati­cally selected. Even if specific EX encoding is not available to provide the additional channel, the special algorithms will derive a 6.1/7.1 output.

DTS 5.1
When the speaker configuration is set for 5.1-channel oper­ation, the DTS 5.1 mode is available when DVD, audio-only music or laser discs encoded with DTS data are played. DTS 5.1 provides up to five separate main audio channels and a special dedicated low-frequency channel.
DTS-ES 6.1 Matrix, DTS-ES 6.1 Discrete
When the speaker configuration is set for 6.1/7.1 operation, playback of a DTS-encoded program source will automati­cally trigger the selection of one of the two DTS-ES modes. Newer discs with special DTS-ES discrete encoding will be decoded to provide six discrete, full-bandwidth channels plus a separate low-frequency channel. All other DTS discs will be decoded using the DTS-ES Matrix mode, which cre­ates a 6.1-channel sound field from the original 5.1-channel soundtrack.
Dolby Pro Logic II (Movie, Music, Pro Logic)
Dolby Pro Logic II is the latest version of Dolby Laboratory's benchmark surround technology that decodes full-range, discrete left, center right, right surround and left surround channels from either matrix surround-encoded programs and conventional stereo sources when an analog input is in use. The Dolby Pro Logic II Movie mode is optimized for movie soundtracks, while the Pro Logic II Music mode should be used with musical selections. The Pro Logic mode activates original Pro Logic processing for those who prefer that presentation.
DTS Neo:6 Cinema, DTS Neo:6 Music
These two modes are available when any analog source is playing to create a six-channel surround presentation from conventional Matrix-encoded and traditional Stereo sources. Select the Cinema version of Neo:6 when a pro­gram with any type of analog Matrix surround encoding is present.
Select the Music version of Neo:6 for optimal processing when a nonencoded, two-channel stereo program is being played.
Theater
The Theater mode creates a sound field that resembles the acoustic feeling of a standard live-performance theater.
Hall 1, Hall 2
The two Hall modes create sound fields that resemble a small (Hall 1) and medium-sized (Hall 2) concert hall.

• UPSAMPLING
The setting to turn the unit's upsampling feature on or off. In normal use, this feature is turned off, which means that digital sources are processed at their native sample rate. For example, a 48kHz digital source will be processed at 48kHz. However, the LR-6500 allows you to upsample the incoming 48kHz signals to 96kHz for added resolution.
NOTE: This feature is only available for the Dolby Pro Logic ll-Music, Dolby Pro Logic ll-Movie, Dolby Pro Logic and Dolby 3 Stereo modes.
SPEAKER SETUP
This menu allows you to switch the menu to change either the speaker size setting or the exact crossover point used for that speaker group. For the first pass through the menu, leave the setting at its default option of SPEAKER SIZE, and then proceed as outlined below. Once the speaker choices have been set, you may wish to return to this line to change the option so that the crossover settings may be adjusted.

5-Channel Stereo, 7-Channel Stereo
This mode takes advantage of multiple speakers to place a stereo signal at both the front and back of a room. Depending on whether the unit has been configured for either 5.1 or 6.1/7.1 operation, one of these modes, but not both, is available at any time. Ideal for playing music in sit­uations such as a party, it places the same signal at the front-left and surround-left, and front-right and surround­right speakers.
The center channel is fed a summed mono mix of the in­phase material of the left and right channels.
Stereo
This mode turns off all surround processing and presents the pure left- and right-channel presentation of two-chan­nel stereo programs.
PURE STEREO: When Audio input is selected analog, the unit is in a "bypass" mode with no bass management.
DSP STEREO: When DSP Stereo is selected, the signal is digitized and bass management settings are applied.
System Configuration
DOLBY SURROUND
When DOLBY SURROUND mode is selected, a menu will be shown.
The choices on this menu include the selection of the actu­al surround mode, the selection of rear channel post-pro­cessing when the system is configured for 7.1 operation, adjustments to the Night Mode when available with a Dolby Digital soundtrack, the adjustment of special para­meters available when either Dolby Pro Logic ll Music or Dolby Pro Logic llx Music is selected as the surround mode and control over digital upsampling, when available.
• Center Width: This setting adjusts the balance of the vocal information in the front sound stage between the center and front left/right speakers. The lower settings spread the center channel sound more broadly into the left and right channel s. A higher number (up to "7") pro­duces a tighter center channel presentation.

The factory default setting for all speaker positions is 100Hz. If that setting is acceptable for all channels, then no adjustments are needed and you may skip this section. However, should you wish to change one of the settings. The available choices at which point low-frequency infor­mation will be sent to the subwoofer, rather than to the main speaker channel, are 40Hz, 60Hz, 80Hz, 100Hz, 120Hz and 200Hz.
DISTANCE ADJUST
Due to the different distances between the listening posi­tion and each speaker position, the amount of time it takes for sound to reach your ears from each channel is different. You may compensate for this difference through the use of the delay settings to adjust the timing for the speaker place­ment and acoustic conditions in your listening room or home theater.

Channel level adjustment is a key part of the configuration of any surround sound product. It is particularly important for a digital receiver such as the LR-6500, as correct out­puts ensure that you hear soundtracks with proper direc­tionality and intensity.
Listeners are often confused about the operation of the sur­round channels. While some assume that sound should always be coming from each speaker, most of the time there will be little or no sound in the surround channels. This is because they are only used when a movie director or sound mixer specifically places sound there to create ambience or special effect, or to continue action from the front of the room to the rear. When the output levels are properly set, it is normal for surround speakers to operate only occasionally. Artificially increasing the volume to the rear speakers may destroy the illusion of an enveloping sound field that duplicates the way you hear sound in a movie theater or concert hall.
Before beginning the output level adjustment process, make certain that all speaker connections have been prop­erly made. The system volume should be set to the level that you will use during a typical listening session
NOTE
You can adjust channel level by pressing the TEST TONE button on the remote control.
