Left surround speaker

The 5.1-channel digital surround format of DOLBY DIGITAL/DTS/ MPEG2* enables you to individually play five full-range (20Hz-20kHz) channels (left and right front, center, two surround channels) plus an LFE (Low Frequency Effect) channel for the low-range effect sound. It will create a realistic sound as heard in theaters and concert halls.

DTS Surround

DVD videos and audio CDs that have the mark are recorded using this system.

MPEG2*

DVD videos that have the mark are recorded using this system. MPEG2 may have 8 channels. In this case, left and right center speakers in addition to the above speaker configuration are used.

DOLBY PRO LOGIC Surround

This surround format consists of 4 channels (left and right front, center, and monaural surround channel) and emphasizes the center channel. This format is very effective for panning music, conversation, and three-dimensional sound movement output from three front channels. It also simulates the atmosphere and surround effects of the sound reflected from the side and rear walls of the theater.

DVD videos that have the mark are recorded using this system.

Audio Out Select

The output sound format can be changed by changing the setting of “Audio Out Select” –– the sound signal conversion method.

This setting is related to the equipment connected to the DVD Player’s DIGITAL OUTPUT connectors/ ANALOG OUTPUT jacks (see pages 8 and 9). For details, see “Output Sound Conversion Table” below.

• Bitstream: Select when you make the digital connection with an amplifier with a Dolby Digital/DTS/MPEG1/MPEG2*/ Dolby Pro Logic decoder.

Warning

DO NOT set “Audio Out Select” to “Bitstream”

if the amplifier does not have one of the decoders described above. If you do so, high volume sound may be output and damage your hearing as well as the speakers.

• Analog 2ch: Select when you make only the analog connection. This setting must be made to reproduce Dolby Pro Logic surround sound with the analog connection.

• PCM: Select when you make the digital connection with the 2 channel digital stereo.

The Dolby Digital, MPEG1, and MPEG2* sound signals are converted into PCM 2ch format and output from the DIGITAL OUTPUT connectors.
