DTS Digital Surround**
Used to reproduce multi-channel sound tracks of the software
encoded with DTS Digital Surround (
).
DTS Digital Surround is a discrete 5.1-channel digital audio
format available on CD, LD, and DVD software.
Compared to Dolby Digital, DTS Digital Surround format has a
lower audio compression ratio which enables it to add breadth and
depth to the sounds reproduced. As such, DTS Digital Surround
features natural, solid and clear sound.
• To enjoy the software encoded with DTS Digital Surround,
connect the source component using the digital terminals on the
rear of this receiver. (See page 13.)

When using Surround mode, the sounds come out of all the
connected and activated speakers.
• If only the front speakers are connected, JVC’s original 3D-
PHONIC processing (which has been developed to create the
surround effect only through the front speakers) is used.
The 3D-PHONIC indicator lights up on the display.

Dolby Surround (Dolby Pro Logic)*
Used to reproduce sound tracks of the software encoded with Dolby
Surround (
DOLBY SURROUND
).
Dolby Surround encoding format records the left front channel,
right front channel, center channel, and surround channel signals
(total 4 channels) into 2 channels.
The Dolby Pro Logic decoder built in this receiver decodes these
2-channel signals into original 4-channel signals—matrix-based
multi-channel reproduction, and allows you to enjoy a realistic
surround sound in your listening room.
• When Dolby Pro Logic is activated, the
PRO LOGIC indicator
lights up on the display.

DTS-ES Extended Surround (DTS-ES)**
This is another new digital surround encoding format, developed by
Digital Theater Systems, Inc., that adds the third surround channel—
surround back channel. (See Dolby Digital EX.)
DTS ES has two types—DTS-ES Discrete 6.1 and DTS-ES Matrix 6.1:
DTS-ES Discrete 6.1—compatible with DTS-ES Extended
Surround (DTS-ES), which has discrete 6.1-channel. You can play
back the software encoded with DTS ES (
).
DTS-ES Matrix 6.1—is designed to add an extra surround channel
to DTS Digital Surround 5.1-channel. By using a matrix encoding/
decoding method, additional “surround back” channel signal is
encoded (and decoded) in both the left and right surround channel
signals. You can playback the software encoded with DTS-ES
(
).
• To enjoy the software encoded with DTS-ES, connect the source
component using the digital terminal on the rear of this receiver.
(See page 13.)
Neo:6**
Neo:6 is a newly developed conversion method to create
6-channel (plus subwoofer) from all 2-channel software. Neo:6 has
two modes—Neo:6 Cinema and Neo:6 Music:
Neo:6 Cinema—suitable for reproduction of matrix-based 2-channel
software.
Neo:6 Music—suitable for reproduction of all 2-channel stereo
music software.
DVD MULTI Playback Mode
This receiver provides the DVD MULTI playback mode for
reproducing the analog discrete 5.1-channel output mode of the
DVD player.
You can adjust the sound reproduced by DVD MULTI playback
mode while playing back video software such as a DVD using
the analog discrete 5.1-channel output mode.
• For the connection and the details of the DVD MULTI
playback mode, see page 37.
Note:
When you select “DVD MULTI” as the source to play, you cannot
