DECODE MODE indicators
The processor automatically identifies the format of the input audio signal and the
corresponding indicator lights up. Switch the audio between Dolby Digital, DTS, etc., on the
connected equipment (DVD device etc.).
• DOLBY DIGITAL: Input signal recorded in the DOLBY DIGITAL format.
• DOLBY PRO LOGIC II: Analogue input signal, digital input PCM signal, or Dolby
Digital 2-channel signal processed by DOLBY PRO LOGIC II.
(If the sound field is set to ”OFF,” it is not processed by DOLBY PRO LOGIC II.)
• DTS: Input signal recorded in the DTS format.
Note
If the equipment connected to the DIGITAL IN jack is not playing back (fast forwarding,
rewinding, etc.), the DECODE MODE indicators may not light up correctly.

Adjust the volume.
Notes
• When watching films, be careful not to raise the volume too high in quiet scenes. You
may hurt your ears when a loud scene is played.
• You may hear some noise when you disconnect the AC power adaptor from the
processor before removing the headphones.
Transition time between modes
When sliding switches on the processor to change to new modes, the transition time
between modes may vary. This is due to differences in system control between
modes.
Notes
• The surround sound effect may not be obtained from sound sources that do not incorporate
video, such as music CDs.
• This system simulates the average HRTF * common to most people. However, the effect can
differ from person to person since the HRTF can vary between individuals.
