Surround modes
DSP mode
The DSP mode lets you add the atmosphere of a live concert or hall
to almost any type of program source. These modes are particularly
effective when used with stereo program sources, like CD, television,
and FM radio. You might enjoy trying the LIVE or HALL mode the next
time you watch a concert or sporting event!

Dolby 3 Stereo
Dolby 3 Stereo is available for systems that do not have surround
speakers. When in the Dolby 3 Stereo mode, the surround information
is redirected to the front left and right speakers. This mode is
designed for use with Dolby Surround program sources, but can also
improve sound field unity for programs that are not Dolby Surround
encoded. Dialog positioning and sound image definition, however,
may not be as accurate when used with programs that are not Dolby
Surround encoded.
What's DSP?
DSP stands for Digital Signal Processor.
The way a sound is heard in an actual environment depends on a
variety of different factors. One of the most important is reverberation
(the act of decaying elements of sound echoing in various places).
The DSP modes produce the feeling of presence by using the DSP
to create reverberation, without spoiling the sound quality of the
original signal.

DVD 6-channel mode
Using a DVD player or the like equipped with six (5.1) output
channels and the receiver, you can enjoy multi-channel encoded
DVD source material in all its splendor. Since the source signals are
digital and each channel is input independently, the resulting sound
quality, sense of spaciousness, and dynamic range are superb.
