Auro-3D sound mode
Sound mode type Description
Auro-3D This mode uses an Auro-3D decoder to create three-dimensional audio output using the Height Channel. It is ideal for
playback of signals encoded as Auro-3D with a Height Channel. If signals not encoded as Auro-3D are input, an Upmixer
called the Auro-Matic is used to create highly realistic three-dimensional audio output.
Auro-2D Surround This mode uses an Auro-3D decoder to create Surround Sound without a Height Channel. It is ideal for playback of signals
encoded as Auro-3D without a Height Channel. If signals not encoded as Auro-3D are input, an Upmixer called the Auro-
Matic is used to output Surround Sound.
