Description
Incoming Bitstream or Signal
DTS Digital Using a different encoding/decoding method from Dolby Digital, DTS Digital
also provides up to five discrete main channels, plus an LFE channel.
DTS 1/0/.0 or .1, 2/0/.0 or .1, 3/0/.0 or .1, 3/1/.0 or .1, 2/2/.0 or •
.1, 3/2/.0 or .1
DTS-ES Matrix (played as 5.1) •
DTS-ES Discrete (played as 5.1) •
DTS-HD
DTS-HD is a high-definition audio format that complements the high-definition video
found on Blu-ray Disc and HD-DVD discs. It is transmitted using a DTS core with
high-resolution extensions. Even when only DTS 5.1 surround sound is desired (or
available, if the multizone system is in use), the higher capacity of high-resolution
discs serves up DTS at twice the bit rate used on DVD-Video discs.

DTS-HD Master Audio
DTS-HD Master Audio technology delivers bit-for-bit reproductions of studio master
recordings for an incredibly accurate performance.

DTS Stereo
Delivers a 2-channel downmix of DTS Digital materials or presents a matrix-
encoded surround presentation.

Logic 7
Mode Group
A HARMAN proprietary technology, Logic 7 technology enhances two-channel
and matrix-encoded recordings by deriving separate information for the surround
back channels. It provides more accurate placement of sound, improves panning
and expands the sound field, even when used with 5.1-channel systems. Logic 7
technology uses 96kHz processing and is available in 5.1 mode. Three variants are
available.

Logic 7
Movie
Especially suited to two-channel sources containing Dolby Surround or matrix
encoding, Logic 7 Movie mode increases centre-channel intelligibility.

Logic 7
Music
The AVR is programmed at the factory to default to this mode for two-
channel signals. Logic 7 Music mode is well suited to conventional two-
channel music recordings.

5-Channel Stereo
Useful for parties, the left- and right-channel information is played through both
the front and surround speakers on each side, while the centre speaker plays a
summed mono mix.

PCM (32kHz, 44.1kHz, 48kHz, 96kHz) •
2-Channel Stereo
Turns off all surround processing and plays a pure 2-channel signal or a downmix
of a multichannel signal. The signal is digitised and bass management settings are
applied, making it appropriate when a subwoofer is used.
