Dolby Pro Logic IIx
Dolby Pro Logic IIx is another multi-channel playback
decoder to convert not only multi-channel software but
2-channel software into 7.1 channel (or 6.1 channel) that
developed from Dolby Pro Logic II. The matrix-based
conversion method used for Dolby Pro Logic IIx makes no
limitation for the cutoff frequency of the surround treble.
• This receiver provides three types of Dolby Pro Logic IIx
modes—Pro Logic IIx Movie (PLIIx MOVIE), Pro Logic IIx
Music (PLIIx MUSIC), and Pro Logic IIx Game (PLIIx GAME).
When Dolby Pro Logic IIx is activated, “PLIIx MOVIE,” “PLIIx
MUSIC,” or “PLIIx GAME” appear and the
indicator
lights up on the display.
PLIIx MOVIE Suitable for playing any Dolby Surround
encoded software. You can enjoy a sound field
with a natural wraparound effect.
PLIIx MUSIC Suitable for playing any 2-channel stereo
software. You can enjoy wide and deep 7.1-
channel sounds.
PLIIx GAME Suitable for when playing a video game. You
can enjoy 7.1-channel sounds with “being
there” feeling. This mode is available only for
an analog 2-channel signal.
7 DTS*
DTS is another digital signal compression method, developed
by Digital Theater Systems, Inc., and enables multi-channel
encoding and decoding (1ch up to 6.1ch).
• When DTS signal is detected through the digital input, the
indicator lights up on the display.
DTS Digital Surround
DTS Digital Surround (DTS) is a discrete 5.1-channel digital
audio format available on CD, LD, and DVD software.
Compared to Dolby Digital, the DTS Digital Surround format
has a lower audio compression rate which enables it to add
breadth and depth to the sounds reproduced. As such, DTS
Digital Surround features natural, solid, and clear sound.
DTS Extended Surround (DTS-ES)
DTS-ES is another multi-channel digital encoding format.
It greatly improves the 360-degree surround impression and
space expression by adding the third surround channel—
surround back channel.
DTS-ES includes two signal formats with different surround
signal recording methods—DTS-ES Discrete 6.1ch (ES
DISCRETE) and DTS-ES Matrix 6.1ch (ES MATRIX).
DTS-ES Discrete 6.1ch has been designed to encode (and
decode) a 6.1-channel signal discretely to avoid interference
with each channel.
DTS-ES Matrix 6.1ch has been designed to add an extra
surround channel to DTS Digital Surround 5.1-channel. By
using a matrix encoding/decoding method, an additional
“surround back” channel signal is encoded (and decoded) in
both the left and right surround channel signals.
DTS 96/24
In recent years, there has been increasing interest in higher
sampling rates both for recording and for reproducing at
home. Higher sampling rates allow wider frequency range and
greater bit depths provide extended dynamic range.
DTS 96/24 is a multi-channel digital signal format (fs 96
kHz/24 bits) introduced by Digital Theater Systems, Inc. to
deliver “better-than-CD sound quality” into the home.
• When DTS 96/24 signal is detected, the
96/24 indicator
lights up. You can enjoy its 5.1-channel sound with full-
quality.
DTS Neo:6
DTS Neo:6 is another conversion method to create 6-channel
(plus subwoofer) from analog/digital 2-channel software by
using the high precision digital matrix decoder used for DTS-
ES Matrix 6.1ch.
• This receiver provides the following DTS Neo:6 modes—
Neo:6 Cinema (NEO:6 CINEMA) and Neo:6 Music (NEO:6
MUSIC).
When one of them is activated, the NEO:6 indicator lights up
on the display.
NEO:6 CINEMA Suitable for playing movies. You can get the
same atmosphere with 2-channel software
as with 6.1-channel software. It is also
effective for playing software encoded with
conventional surround formats.
NEO:6 MUSIC Suitable for playing music software. The
front channel signals bypass the decoder
(resulting in no loss of sound quality) and
the surround signals transmitted through
the other speakers expand the sound field
naturally.
* “DTS”, “DTS-ES”, “Neo:6” and “DTS 96/24” are trademarks
of Digital Theater Systems, Inc.
When using Surround mode, the sounds come out of the
activated speakers which the Surround mode requires.
• If either “SURROUND SPK” or “CENTER SPK” is set
to “NO” in the speaker setting (see page 30), the
corresponding channel signals are allocated to and emitted
through the front speakers.
• If both “SURROUND SPK” and “CENTER SPK” are set to
“NO” in the speaker setting (see page 30), JVC’s original
3D-PHONIC processing (which has been developed to create
the surround effect through the front speakers only) is used.
The 3D-PHONIC indicator lights up on the display.
