THX need not be activated for music, movies made
especially for TV, or shows such as sports
programming, talk shows, etc.
This is because they were originally mixed for a
small room environment.
DESCRIPTION
THX Surround EX—Dolby DIgital Surround EX is a
joint development of Dolby Laboratories and THX
Ltd.
DTS was introduced in 1994 to provide 5.1 channels
of discrete digital audio into home theater systems.
DTS brings you premium quality discrete
multichannel digital sound to both movies and
music.
DTS is a multichannel 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.
In a movie theater, film soundtracks that have
been encoded with Dolby Digital Surround EX
technology are able to reproduce an extra channel
which has been added during the mixing of the
program. This channel, called Surround Back,
places sounds behind the listener in addition to the
currently available front left, front center, front
right, surround right, surround left and subwoofer
channels. This additional channel provides the
opportunity for more detailed imaging behind the
listener and brings more depth, spacious
ambience and sound localization than ever before.
Movies that were created using the Dolby Digital
Surround EX technology, when released into the
home consumer market may exhibit wording to
that effect on the packaging. A list of movies
created using this technology can be found on the
available DVD software titles encoded with this
Only receiver and controller products bearing the
THX Surround EX logo, when in the THX Surround
EX mode, faithfully reproduce this new technology
in the home. This product may also engage the
THX Surround EX mode during the playback of 5.1
channel material that is not Dolby Digital Surround
EX eocnded. In such case, the information
delivered to the Surround Back channel will be
program dependent and may or may not be very
pleasing depending on the particular soundtrack
and the tastes of the individual listener.
THX and Ultra 2 are trademarks or registered
trademarks of THX Ltd. Surround EX is a jointly
developed technology of THX and Dolby
Laboratories, Inc. and is a trademark of Dolby
Laboratories, Inc. Used under authorization. All
rights reserved.
THX® is an exclusive set of standards and
technologies established by the world-renowned
film production company, Lucasfilm Ltd. THX
resulted from George Lucas’ desire to reproduce
the movie soundtrack as faithfully as possible both
in the movie theater and in the home theater.
THX engineers developed patented technologies
to accurately translate the sound from a movie
theater environment into the home, correcting the
tonal and spatial errors that occur.
When the THX mode of the SR9600 is on, three
distinct THX technologies are automatically
added:
Re-Equalization-restores the correct tonal balance
for watching a movie in a home environment.
These sounds are otherwise mixed to be brighter
for a large movie theater. Re-EQ compensates for
this and prevents the soundtracks from being
overly bright and harsh when played in a home
theater.
Timbre Matching-filters the information going to
the surround speakers so they more closely match
the tonal characteristics of the sound coming from
the front speakers.
This ensures seamless panning between the front and
surround speakers.
Adaptive Decorrelation-slightly changes one
surround channel’s time and phase relationship
with respect to the other surround channel.
This expands the listening position and creates
with only two surround speakers the same
spacious surround experience as in a movie
theater with multiple surround speakers.
The Marantz SR9600 was required to pass a
rigorous series of quality and performance tests, in
addition to incorporating the technologies
explained above, in order to be THX Ultra certified
by Lucasfilm Ltd.
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.
The THX Ultra2 specification provides
uncompromised 7.1 channel playback of any multi-
channel program, whether movie soundtracks or
music over the widest possible seating area.
There are an additional two processing’s for THX
Ultra2 as bellow.
“DTS” and “DTS Digital Surround” are registered
trademarks of Digital Theater Systems, Inc.
A.S.A. (Advanced Speaker Array)
“ASA” is a proprietary THX technology which
processes the sound fed to 2 surround and 2
surround back speakers to provide the optimal
surround sound experience. When you set up your
home theater system using all eight speaker
outputs (Left, Center, Right, Surround Right,
Surround Back Right, Surround Back Left,
Surround Left and Subwoofer), placing the two
Surround Back speakers close together facing the
front of the room as shown in the diagram will
provide the largest sweet spot. If for practical
reasons you have to place the Surround Back
speakers apart, you will need to go to the THX
Audio Set-up screen and choose the setting that
most closely corresponds to the speaker distance,
which will re-optimize the surround sound-field.
ASA is used in two new surround modes; THX
Ultra2 Cinema, THX Music Mode and THX Games
mode.
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.
“SURROUND EX™” is a trademark of Dolby
Laboratories. Used under authorization.
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.
THX Ultra requirements cover every aspect of
performance including pre-amplifier and power
amplifier performance and operation, and
hundreds of other parameters in both the digital
and analog domain.
Movies which have been encoded in Dolby Digital,
DTS, Dolby Pro Logic, stereo and Mono will all
benefit from the THX mode when being viewed.
The THX mode should only be activated when
watching movies which were originally produced
for a movie theater environment.
B.G.C. (Boundary Gain Compensation)
If your chosen listening room layout (for practical or
aesthetic reasons) results in most of the listeners
being close to the rear wall, the resulting bass level
can be sufficiently reinforced by the boundary that
the overall sound quality becomes “boomy”. THX
Ultra2 receivers contain the BGC (Boundary Gain
Compensation) feature to provide an improved
bass balance. BGC can be selected by choosing
“THX Ultra2 Subwoofer-Yes” from the “Boundary
Gain Compensation” section of the “THX Audio
setup menu”.
• 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.

4. 96/24 5.1-channel sound with full-quality full-
motion video, for music programs and motion
picture soundtracks on DVD-video.
Dolby Surround encoded video cassettes and
television programs with enhanced depth and
spatiality. It can also process any high-quality
stereo or Advanced Resolution 5.1-channel music
content into a seamless 6.1- or 7.1-channel
listening experience.

DTS-ES Extended Surround is a new multichannel
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 5.1 surround 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.
HDCD® (High Definition Compatible Digital ®) is a
patented process for delivering on Compact Disc
the full richness and details of the original
microphone feed.
HDCD encoded CDs sound better because they
are encoded with 20-bits of real musical
information as compared to 16-bits for all other
CDs.
HDCD overcomes the limitation of the 16-bit CD
format by using a sophisticated system to encode
the additional four bits onto the CD while remaining
completely compatible with the CD format.
When listening to HDCD recordings, you hear
more dynamic range, a focused 3-D sound stage,
and extremely natural vocal and musical timbre.
With HDCD, you get the body, depth and emotion
of the original performance not a flat, digital
imitation.
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.
The Dolby Headphone technology provides a
surround sound listening experience over headphones.
When listening to multichannel content such as
DVD movies over headphones, the listening
experience is fundamentally different than
listening to speakers. Since the headphone
speaker drivers are covering the pinna of the ear,
the listening experience differs greatly from
traditional speaker playback. Dolby utilizes
patented headphone perspective curves to solve
this problem and provides a non-fatiguing,
immersive, home theater listening experience.
Dolby Headphone also delivers exceptional 3D
audio from stereo material.
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.)

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.

Dolby Digital EX creates six full-bandwidth output
channels from 5.1-channel sources. This is done
using a matrix decoder that derives 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.
Circle Surround II (CS-II) is a powerful and
versatile multichannel technology. CS-II is
designed to enable up to 6.1 multichannel surround
sound playback from mono, stereo, CS encoded
sources and other matrix encoded sources. In all
cases the decoder extends it into 6 channels of
surround audio and a LFE/subwoofer signal. The
CS-II decoder creates a listening environment that
places the listener “inside” music performances
and dramatically improves both hi-fi audio
conventional surround-encoded video material.
CS-II provides composite stereo rear channels to
greatly improve separation and image positioning–
adding a heightened sense of realism to both audio
and A/V productions.
CS-II is packed with other useful feature like dialog
clarity (SRS Dialog) for movies and cinema-like
bass enrichment (TruBass). CS-II can enable the
dialog to become clearer and more discernable in
movies and it enables the bass frequencies
contained in the original programming to more
closely achieve low frequencies–overcoming the
low frequency limitations of the speakers by full
octave.
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.
About Dolby Pro Logic IIx

• i.LINK Transmission Formats
• HDMI
i.LINK is the generic name for the IEEE 1394 digital
interface standard of the Institute of Electrical and
Electronics Engineers. It covers the transmission of
data such as digital sound and the operation of
connected devices.
Two i.Link transmission formats are MPEG-2TS,
which is used in digital broadcasting, and DV, which is
used by DVD recorders and for digital video.
This receiver supports the i.LINK (Audio)format. Only
components that support i.LINK (Audio) can be
connected to the SR9600. i.LINK (Audio) makes it
possible to digitally transmit multichannel audio from
DVD-Audio and Super Audio CDs.
HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) is an
enhancement to the DVI (Digital Visual Interface)
standard. It adds capabilities for digitally transmitting
audio signals in addition to video signals. Where
multiple cables were previously needed for audio/
video, HDMI enables audio/video connection via a
single cable.
The HDMI jacks of this receiver support HDMI Ver.
1.1. The multichannel signals of DVD-Audio can be
transmitted as digital signals without conversion.

COMPONENT VIDEO INPUT/OUTPUT
If your DVD player or other device has component
video connectors, be sure to connect them to these
connectors on the SR9600. The SR9600 has 4
component video input connectors to obtain the
color information (Y, C /P , C /P ) directly from the
recorded DVD signal or other video component and
2 component video output connectors to output it
directly into the matrix decoder of the display
device.
By sending the pure DVD component video signal
directly, the DVD signal forgoes the extra
processing that normally would degrade the
image. The result is vastly increased image
quality, with incredibly life-like colors and crisp
detail.

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 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”
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.
Place the surround left, right and surround back
speakers higher than your ears by about 2.3 - 3.3 ft
(70cm–1m). Also, place the speakers at the same
height, as best as possible.

Notes:
• Some HDMI components can be controlled over
the HDMI cable, but this receiver cannot control
other components this way.
• When connected to a monitor (i.e., TV, projector,
etc.) that does not support HDCP, video and audio
are not output.
• DVI cables come with 24-pin and 29-pin plugs.
This receiver supports 24-pin DVI-D cables; 29-
pin DVI cables cannot connect to it.
• Some source devices such as DVD players do not
support HDMI repeater operations like those of
the SR9600. In such case, pictures are not
properly projected on monitors such as TVs and
projectors.
• When multiple components are connected to this
receiver, turn power to unused components off to
prevent interference between them.

You can control other Marantz products through
the SR9600 with the remote control by connecting
the REMOTE CONTROL terminals on each unit.
The signal transmitted from the remote control is
received by the remote sensor on the SR9600,
then the signal is sent to the connected device
through this terminal. Therefore you need to aim
the remote control only at the SR9600. Also, if a
Marantz power amplifier (some models excluded)
is connected to one of these terminals, the power
amplifier’s power switch is synchronized with this
unit’s power switch.
Whenever external infrared sensors or similar
devices are connected to the RC-5 IN jack on the
SR9600, be sure to always disable operation of the
infrared sensor on the SR9600 by using the
following procedure.

Example connection :
Up to 17 devices can be connected in a daisy
chain.
Notes:
• The i.LINK feature of the SR9600 supports only
CONNECTING i.LINK COMPONENTS
devices (digital broadcast receiver (MPEG-2 TS),
digital video (DV), etc.) that support i.LINK
(Audio). Do not connect unsupported devices
because malfunctions can occur.
The SR9600 connects to i.LINK components that
support up to S400 (400 Mbps). Use a 4-pin i.LINK
cable that supports S400 for i.LINK connections
with this receiver.
Video data cannot be transmitted via the i.LINK
(Audio) supported by this receiver. To connect to a
video component, connect the video signal
separately. When connected to other Marantz
products using i.LINK, the system can be operated
over the i.LINK cable.
When multiple i.LINK components are connected
to the receiver, data can be transmitted through
the other i.LINK components. The components do
not have to be connected in a specific order to do
this. (see page 34)
i.LINK does not distinguish between input and
output terminals in two-way communications. Input
and output are switched according to the direction
in which signals flow.
The SR9600 can detect up to 15 components.

• During playback of an i.LINK device, do not
disconnect or connect the i.LINK cable of other
devices. Also, do not connect new devices or turn
the power on/off. This can cut off the sound.

Example connection :
• Some i.LINK devices cannot relay data while
power is off or the device is on standby. See the
instruction manual of the connected device.
Up to 63 devices can be connected in a tree
formation by branching. This kind of connection is
possible with devices that have 3 or more i.LINK
connectors.
The SR9600 does not relay data in this state
either.
• The maximum data transfer speed of an i.LINK
device is labeled near to its i.LINK connector.
This maximum data speed is standardized as S100
(100 Mbps), S200 (200 Mbps) and S400 (400
Mbps). The SR9600 has a maximum data transfer
speed of S400, but if the connected device
supports only S100 or S200, the actual data
transfer may be slower than 400 Mbps.

Mbps stands for “mega bits per second”. It
expresses the quantity of data that can be sent in 1
second. The SR9600 supports S400, therefore it
sends 400 Mb of data every second.

RE-EQ
LIP.SYNC
This menu is for turning THX Cinema Re-EQ™ on
and off. The tonal balance of a film soundtrack will
be excessively bright and harsh when played back
over audio equipment in the home. This is because
film soundtracks were designed to be played back
in large movie theater environments.
Activating the Cinema Re-EQ™ mode when
watching a film made for movie theaters corrects
this and restores the correct tonal balance.
Cinema Re-EQ™ is therefore not necessary for
material that was not designed for movie theaters
(for example, sports programming, television
shows, made for TV movies, etc.).
Depending on the display component (TV, monitor,
projector, etc.) connected to the SR9600, a time lag
can occur between image signal processing and
audio signal processing. Though minor, this time
lag can interfere with movie and music enjoyment.
The Lip.Sync mode delays the audio signal with
respect to the image signal output from the SR9600
to correct the time lag between the sound and
image.

When playing back software which has been
encoded in Dolby Digital, sometimes you may see
a brief message on the FL display which will read
"Dial Norm X dB" (X being a numeric value).
Dialogue Normalization serves to let you know if
the source material has been recorded at a higher
or lower level than usual. For example, if you see
the following message: "Dial Norm + 4 dB" on the
FL display, to keep the overall output level
constant just turn down the volume control by 4 dB.
In other words, the source material that you are
listening to has been recorded 4 dB louder than
usual.

This mode provides 6.1 or 7.1 channel surround
sound from 5.1 channel sources music soundtracks.
THX Cinema mode applies additional processing
to Dolby Digital, DTS and Dolby Pro Logic multi-
channel, surround sources. The THX processing
was developed by Lucasfilm Ltd. to recreate the
sound of top-quality theater.
Use the THX Cinema mode for all movies on disc,
tape or broadcast. In this mode, the THX Surround
EX mode is not available.
THX MUSIC
PURE DIRECT
For the replay of multichannel music, the THX
Music mode should be selected. In this mode, THX
ASA processing is applied to the surround
channels of all 5.1-encoded music sources, such
as DTS and Dolby Digital, to provide a wide, stable,
rear soundstage.
This mode is to be used with multichannel music
sources such as DTS 5.1 music and Dolby Digital
5.1 music.
The Pure Direct mode further reduces sources of
noise in addition to effect of the Source Direct
mode, by blocking output from the video jacks
(VIDEO, S-VIDEO, COMPONENT VIDEO and
HDMI) and turning the FL display off.
.
THX SURROUND EX
Notes:
In a movie theater, film soundtracks that have
been encoded with Dolby Digital Surround EX
technology are able to reproduce an extra channel
which has been added during the mixing of the
program.
This channel, called Surround Back, places
sounds behind the listener in addition to the
currently available front left, front center, front
right, surround right, surround left and subwoofer
channels.
• Pro Logic IIx mode will decode as Pro Logic II
mode when the SURR. B is set to “NONE” from
SPEAKER SETUP menu. (See page 37)
Notes:
• These modes are only available when you have
setup SPEAKER SIZE menu system (i.e. 2
surround back speakers).
• Pro Logic IIx mode is available for a 2 channel
input signal which is encoded in Dolby Digital,
HDCD or PCM format.
• These modes are only available when the input
signal has surround left and surround right
contents.
• PCM audio signals can be subjected to Pro Logic
IIx processing when the sampling frequency is 32
kHz, 44.1 kHz or 48 kHz.
This additional channel provides the opportunity
for more detailed imaging behind the listener and
brings more depth, spacious ambience and sound
localization than ever before.
THX Surround EX will operate for any 5.1 channel
source whenever THX is active.
THX GAMES
For the replay of stereo and multichannel game
audio the THX Games mode should be selected. In
this mode, THX ASA processing is applied to the
surround channels of all 5.1 and 2.0-encoded game
sources such as analog, PCM, DTS and Dolby
Digital. This accurately places all game audio
surround information, providing a full 360-degree
playback environment. THX Games mode is unique
as it gives you a smooth transition of audio in all
points of the surround field.
THX Surround EX is not available in system
without surround back speaker(s).

Neo:6 Cinema, Neo:6 Music
EX/ES
STEREO
Note for HDCD
This mode decodes 2 channel signals into 6
channel signals using high-accuracy digital matrix
technology.
•
HDCD is effective only through digital input.
This mode provides 6.1 channel surround for
Dolby Digital EX, and DTS-ES-encoded source
material such as DVD.
This mode cannot be used when an analog input
has been selected.
This mode bypasses all surround processing.
In stereo program sources, the left and right
channels play normally when PCM audio or analog
stereo is input.
With Dolby Digital and DTS sources, the 5.1
channels are converted to two channel stereo. 96
kHz PCM source material can be played back in
stereo mode.
•
You may not be able to play some HDCD source
signals from certain CD players if you connect the
player to the SR9600 digitally. This is because the
digital signal has been processed (such as the
output level, sampling frequency or frequency
response) and the SR9600 cannot recognize the
signal as HDCD data.
The DTS Neo:6 decoder has near-discrete
properties in the frequency characteristics of the
channels as well as in channel separation.
According to the signals to be played back, DTS
Neo:6 uses either the Neo:6 Cinema mode
optimized for movie playback or the Neo:6 Music
mode optimized for music playback.
Dolby Digital EX
In a movie theater, film soundtracks that have
been encoded with Dolby Digital Surround EX
technology are able to reproduce an extra channel
which has been added during the mixing of the
program.
CAUTION
Notes:
Note for DTS
•
The Neo:6 mode is available for 2 channel input
signals which are encoded in Dolby Digital,
HDCD or PCM format.
This channel, called surround back, places sounds
behind the listener in addition to the currently
available front left, front center, front right,
surround right, surround left and subwoofer
channels.
This additional channel provides the opportunity
for more detailed imaging behind the listener and
brings more depth, spacious ambience and sound
localization than ever before.
•
To connected DVD player, laserdisc player or CD
player needs to support DTS digital output. You
may not be able to play some DTS source signals
from certain CD players and LD players even if
you connect the player to the SR9600 digitally.
This is because the digital signal has been
processed (such as the output level, sampling
frequency or frequency response), and the
SR9600 cannot recognize the signal as DTS
data.
• PCM audio signals can be subjected to Neo:6
processing when the sampling frequency is 32
kHz, 44.1 kHz or 48 kHz.
MULTI CH. ST
This mode is used to create a wider, deeper and more
natural soundstage from two channel source material.
This is done by feeding the left channel signal to
both the left front and left surround speakers and
the right channel signal to both the right front and
right surround speakers. Additionally, the center
channel reproduces a mix of the right and left
channels.
Dolby Digital EX is not available in systems that do
not have without surround back speaker(s).
• Depending on the player used, DTS play may
produce a short noise. This is not a malfunction.
DTS-ES (Discrete 6.1, Matrix 6.1)
• While signals from a DTS laserdisc or CD are
playing in another surround mode, you cannot
switch to digital input or from digital input to
analog input from the INPUT SETUP in the
MAIN MENU or by pressing the A/D button.
DTS-ES adds the surround center channel audio
to the DTS 5.1 channel format to improve the
acoustic positioning, and makes acoustic image
movement more natural with the 6.1 channel
reproduction.
CIRCLE SURROUND II
(CSII-CINEMA, CSII-MUSIC, CSII-MONO)
The SR9600 incorporates a DTS-ES-decoder,
which can handle DTS-ES Discrete-encoded and
DTS-ES Matrix-encoded program sources from
DVD, etc.
DTS-ES Discrete 6.1 features digital discrete
recording of all channels, including the surround
back channel(s), and higher quality audio
reproduction.
• You can not listen to DTS-encoded software in a
multiroom.
Circle Surround is designed to enable multichannel
surround sound playback of non-encoded and
multichannel encoded material.
Backward compatibility provides listeners with up
to 6.1 channels of surround performance from an
entire collection of music and film, including
broadcast, videotape and stereo recorded music.
Depending on source material, you can select
CSII-Cinema mode, CSII-Music mode or CSII-
Mono mode.
•
The outputs for VCR 1 OUT, DSS/VCR 2 OUT,
TAPE OUT and CD-R OUT output analog audio
signals only. Do not record from CDs or LDs that
support DTS using these outputs. If you do, the
DTS-encoded signal will be recorded as noise.
DTS-ES is not available in systems that do not
have surround back speakers.
Note or Dolby Digital Surround EX
•
When playing Dolby Digital Surround EX-encoded
software in 6.1 channels, it is required to set the
EX/ES mode.
dts
Notes:
• Note that some Dolby Digital Surround EX-
encoded software does not contain the
identification signal. In this case, set the EX/ES
mode manually.
dts, Neo:6 Cinema, Neo:6 Music
• The CS II mode is available for 2 channel input
signals which are encoded in Dolby Digital,
HDCD or PCM format.
This mode is for DTS-encoded source materials
such as laserdisc, CD and DVD. Neo:6 is for some
2 channel sources.
• PCM audio signals can be subjected to CS II
processing when the sampling frequency is 32
kHz, 44.1 kHz or 48 kHz.
Note for 96 kHz/192 kHz PCM audio
dts
•
The AUTO, Pure Direct, and Stereo modes can
be used when playing PCM signals with a
sampling frequency of 96/192 kHz (such as from
DVD-Video/Audio discs).
This mode is enabled when playing source
materials encoded in dts multichannel.
Playing multichannel encoded-5.1 channel dts
sources provides five main audio channels (left,
center, right, surround left and surround right) and
a Low Frequency Effects channel.
VIRTUAL
This mode creates a virtualized surround sound
experience from a two-speaker (front L and R)
playback system playing any multichannel audio
source (such as found on DVDs and digital
broadcasts), including Dolby Digital, Dolby Pro
Logic or DTS.
•
•
Certain DVD player models inhibit digital output.
For details, refer to the player’s operation manual.
Some DVD discs feature copy protection. When
using such disc, 96 kHz PCM signal are not output
from the DVD player. For details, refer to the
player’s operation manual.
dts-ES decoding is not available in this mode.
The DTS mode cannot be used when an analog
input has been selected.
