5.1 PLIIx MUS
The 5.1 PLIIx MUS (MUSIC) listening mode is designed to playback 7.1
discrete channels decoded from 5.1-channel Dolby Digital music
sources. (The 5.1 PLIIx MUSIC listening mode can also be used with
other types of Dolby Digital sources with mixed results.) The seven
main channels are full–frequency. The .1 channel, often referred to as
LFE information, has a limited frequency range of up to 120Hz.
Dolby Pro Logic IIx technology is an extension to Dolby Pro Logic II
that enables the listener to experience natural and seamless 6.1- or
7.1-channel (six or seven speakers and a subwoofer) surround sound
from any native two-channel (stereo) or 5.1-channel source.
Note:
The MC-8 cannot detect Dolby Digital Surround EX encoding in
non-flagged 5.1-channel Dolby Digital input sources.
Activating the 5.1 PLIIx MUS listening mode
The 5.1 PLIIx MUS listening mode is a dynamic listening mode and
cannot be assigned as a preferred listening mode for Dolby Digital
sources. To activate this listening mode, use the front-panel or remote
control Mode buttons.
When the DOLBY D parameter is set to USE LAST, the MC-8 will
automatically activate the dynamic 5.1 PLIIx MUS listening mode if
this listening mode was activated the last time a Dolby Digital
source was present.
Note:
The 5.1 PLIIx MUS mode does not appear in the list of available listening
modes if either the side or rear speakers are missing from the configuration.
See “Listening Mode Menu Option and Parameter Descriptions” on page 5-34 for
detailed descriptions.
