2 Surround parameters t
DTS NEO:6 Mode:
• Cinema:
This mode is optimum for playing movies. Decoding
is performed with emphasis on separation
performance to achieve the same atmosphere with
2-channel sources as with 6.1-channel sources.
This mode is effective for playing sources recorded
in conventional surround formats as well, because
the in-phase component is assigned mainly to the
center channel (C) and the reversed phase
component to the surround (SL, SR and SB
channels).
• Music:
This mode is suited mainly for playing music. The
front channel (FL and FR) signals bypass the decoder
and are played directly so there is no loss of sound
quality, and the effect of the surround signals output
from the center (C) and surround (SL, SR and SB)
channels add a natural sense of expansion to the
sound field.
CENTER IMAGE (0.0 to 1.0: default 0.3):
The center image parameter for adjusting the
expansion of the center channel in the DTS NEO:6
MUSIC mode has been added.
The Dolby Headphone
The Dolby Headphone mode is set when headphones
are connected to the PHONES jack while in the
DOLBY/DTS SURROUND mode.
