Surround Mode Description Incoming Bitstream or Signal
DTS-ES Discrete DTS-ES Discrete is another Extended Surround mode that adds a surround
back channel, but this information is encoded discretely on the disc, and is
not derived from information contained in the surround channels.
DTS-ES Discrete
DTS Stereo Delivers a 2-channel downmix of DTS Digital materials, or presents a matrix-
encoded surround presentation.
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 96/24

DTS Neo:6
Mode Group
DTS Neo:6 analog processing is available with DTS and DTS 96/24 signals and
2-channel analog or PCM signals to create a 3-, 5- or 6-channel presentation.
See below
DTS Neo:6
Cinema
Depending on the number of speakers in your system, select 3-, 5- or
6-channel modes, enhanced for movie or video presentations.
DTS 2/2/.0 or .1, 3/2/.0 or .1
DTS 96/24
Analog (2-channel)
PCM (32kHz, 44.1kHz or 48kHz)
DTS Neo:6
Music
Available only in 5- and 6-channel modes, creates a surround presentation
suitable for music recordings.
DTS 2/2/.0 or .1, 3/2/.0 or .1
DTS 96/24
Analog (2-channel)
PCM (32kHz, 44.1kHz or 48kHz)
Logic 7
Mode Group
A Harman International proprietary technology, Logic 7 technology enhances
2-channel and matrix-encoded recordings by deriving separate information
for the surround back channels. This 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- or 7.1-channel modes. Three variants are available.

Logic 7
Movie
Especially suited to 2-channel sources containing Dolby Surround or matrix
encoding, Logic 7 Movie mode increases center channel intelligibility.
Analog (2-channel)
Tuner
PCM (32kHz, 44.1kHz, 48kHz, 96kHz)
Logic 7
Music
The AVR 160 is programmed at the factory to default to this mode for
2-channel signals. Logic 7 Music mode is well suited to conventional
2-channel music recordings.
Analog (2-channel)
Tuner
PCM (32kHz, 44.1kHz, 48kHz, 96kHz)
Logic 7
Game
Use Logic 7 Game mode to enhance enjoyment of video game consoles. Analog (2-channel)
Tuner
PCM (32kHz, 44.1kHz, 48kHz, 96kHz)
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 center speaker
plays a summed mono mix.
Analog (2-channel)
Tuner
PCM (32kHz, 44.1kHz or 48kHz, 96kHz,
192kHz)
7-Channel Stereo Expands the 5-Channel Stereo presentation to include the surround back
channels.
Analog (2-channel)
Tuner
PCM (32kHz, 44.1kHz or 48kHz, 96kHz,
192kHz)
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 digitized and bass
management settings are applied, making it appropriate when a subwoofer
is used.
Analog (2-channel; DSP downmix available
for multichannel)
Tuner
PCM (32kHz, 44.1kHz, 48kHz, 96kHz)
2-Channel Stereo
(Analog Bypass)
Maintains an analog input signal in that form, bypassing all digital
processing (i.e., surround and bass management). Requires Tone Control
setting to be off.
Analog (2-channel)
