Glossary

 

 

Dolby Atmos

 

 

This unit supports playback in the Dolby Atmos format which provides 360e sound placement. Unlike existing

 

 

surround systems, Dolby Atmos doesn't rely on channels, but rather enables the accurate placement of sound

 

 

objects that have independent motion in a three-dimensional space with even greater clarity. Dolby Atmos is an

 

 

optional audio format on Blu-ray Discs and achieves a three-dimensional sound field by introducing a sound field

 

 

above the listener.

 

 

ARC

 

 

The ARC (Audio Return Channel) feature transfers TV audio signals via HDMI cable so that you can play the

 

 

audio from the TV through this unit. Connection to an ARC compatible TV is complete with one HDMI cable. Refer

 

1

to the instruction manual for your TV to see if it supports ARC. (ÄP12)

 

 

HDMI CEC functionality

 

 

Control features such as linking input switching with the input selector and players conforming to the CEC

 

 

standard, switching audio output and volume using the remote controller of a CEC-compliant TV, and

 

 

automatically switching this unit to standby when the TV is turned off (ÄP14)

 

 

HDMI Standby Through

 

 

Video and audio signals from AV components can be transmitted to the TV even if this unit is in standby (ÄP14)

7.1-Channel System

Front speakers output front stereo sound and a center speaker outputs center sound such as dialogs and vocals. Surround speakers create back sound field. Powered subwoofer reproduces bass sounds and creates rich sound field.

Surround back speakers improve the sense of envelopment created by the back sound field and provide a more realistic sound field. Furthermore, by installing surround back speakers, you can select the Dolby Atmos listening mode, which realizes the most up-to-date 3D sound, when the input format is Dolby Atmos.

The front speakers should be positioned at ear height, while the surround speakers should be positioned just above ear height. Center speaker should be set up facing the listening position.

Placing the powered subwoofer between the center speaker and a front speaker gives you a natural sound even when playing music.

The optimal positioning is for surround back speakers to be at ear height.

0If you are including surround back speakers in the setup, surround speakers are required.

Listening Mode

This unit is equipped with a variety of listening modes, and you can select the optimum listening mode for movies, TV, music, and games by repeatedly pressing the MOVIE/TV, MUSIC, and GAME buttons (c). You can also select THX-related listening modes by repeatedly pressing THX (d). For details on the listening modes, see the Advanced Manual. This section introduces some of the popular modes.

Dolby Digital/DTS modes

When the input signal is a digital surround format such as Dolby Digital or DTS, you can

select the listening mode that suits the input signal. Dolby Digital is displayed for Dolby Digital and DTS-HD Master Audio is displayed for DTS-HD Master Audio. The output is Stereo for 2-channel input signals.

Direct

This listening mode can be selected for all input signals. It shuts down processing that affects sound quality to deliver a playback sound quality closer to sources. Speakers play the sound field according to the number of channels in the input signal, so there would be output from only the front speakers for a 2 ch signal, for example.

Dolby Surround/DTS Neural:X

These listening modes allow you to expand the playback signal to a maximum of 11 channel to suit the connected speaker configuration when the input signal is 2 channels or 5.1 channels.

THX surround modes

Multiple surround speakers are installed in movie theaters so that the moviegoer is enveloped in a natural surround sound. Even with just two surround speakers, the THX Cinema mode achieves, with the high-quality technology developed by THX, the same kind of breadth of sound you would get in a movie theater along with the natural flow of timbre with the sound field towards the front. Also available are modes such as THX Music and THX Games.

Original surround modes

You can select listening modes such as the All Ch Stereo mode where a stereo image is played from both the front and the rear, and Orchestra (only with the MUSIC button) which is best for playback of classical and opera pieces.

Troubleshooting | Appendix

When the unit is operating erratically

Try restarting the unit

Restarting the unit may help it operate more smoothly. To restart the unit, turn it to standby, and then press Í ON/ STANDBY on the main unit for at least 5 seconds. (The unit’s settings will be maintained.) If there is no improvement even after the unit is restarted, try disconnecting and reconnecting the power cords of the unit and connected equipment.

Resetting the unit (this resets the unit settings to the default)

If restarting the unit doesn't fix the problem, resetting the unit to the status at the time of shipment may solve the problem. If you reset the unit status, your preferences will be reset to the defaults. Note them down before the operation below.

1.While pressing the CBL input selector button on the main unit, press Í ON/STANDBY.

2."Clear" appears on the display and the unit returns to standby. Do not unplug the power cord until "Clear" disappears from the display.

To reset the remote controller, while holding down CLR, press MODE until MAIN flash twice (about 3 seconds).

When the subwoofer produces no sound

If the setting of the front speakers is "Full Band" and during 2ch input such as from the TV or music, the low range elements will be output from the front speakers rather than from the subwoofer. If you would rather output from the subwoofer, make one of the following settings.

1.Change the front speakers settings to a setting other than "Full Band" for the crossover frequency value. The range below the frequency you specify will be output from the subwoofer rather than the front speakers. We do not recommend changing this if your front speakers have good low range reproduction capabilities.

2.Change "Double Bass" to "On".

The low range elements will be output from both the front speakers and the subwoofer. This may mean that there is too much bass. Do not change if this happens, or choose option 1.

Refer to "Setup Menu" "Crossover" in the Advanced Manual for details.
