Main Menu
The 'Main Menu' is designed for adjustments to the
decoder which are only occasionally required for daily
listening; perhaps to allow for temporary changes in the
listening room, or to compensate for unique
characteristics of a special listening source.
To open the 'Main Menu' press the remote control button
or
briefly, or the
button on the
decoder’s front panel.
Listening mode:
At this menu point you can select the decoder’s playback
mode or sound field which you wish to use. The decoder
'remembers' your chosen setting for each input
(DVD, CD, Tuner, ...), and selects it every time you
switch to that input.
Surnd EX/ES (Dolby Digital EX / DTS ES decoder
version). The DTS ES and Dolby Digital Surround EX
digital multi-channel signals are detected and decoded.
The surround channels are reproduced by the surround
loudspeakers and one or two rear loudspeakers (6.1 /

The DTS and Dolby Digital digital multi-channel signals
are automatically detected and decoded. The surround
channels are reproduced by two surround loudspeakers

decoder converts it into a stereo signal, i. e. all channel
information is mixed down and sent to the main left and
right loudspeakers.
Mono All channels are mixed down onto the center
loudspeaker channel.

Generally Channel I transmits the synchronised sound.
The signal from Channel I is reproduced via the Centre

suppressed.

Notes
:
*) If no Centre speaker is present (see 'Loudspeaker
Menu'), the Centre channel is mixed onto the left and
right main speakers.
Not all signal sources (DVDs, CDs etc.) which are
encoded with Dolby Digital or dts Digital Surround always
contain information on all channels. Even if the screen
indicates that a particular channel is present, this does
not necessarily mean that the loudspeaker in question
will always produce sound.
In every playback mode signals may be present on the
subwoofer channel; this depends on the loudspeaker
arrangement you have selected in the 'Speaker Setup'.
