SACD Playback
This sub-submenu selects the behavior of the
Model Eleven when playing SACD discs. The
choices include “2ch area”, Multi-ch area” and
“CD Area. Some SACD discs contain both 2
channel and multi-channel information.
Additionally, some SACD discs contain a CD
area in addition to their SACD area. These are
often referred to as “Hybrid SACD” discs. Not all
SACD discs have multi-channel or CD areas.
This menu setting only establishes the preferred
behavior of the Model Eleven. The actual
playback will depend both upon the settings in
this menu and the disc in play.
PhotoViewer
This sub-submenu has two choices, either “On”
or “Off”. When set to “On” a disc that contains
JPEG files will be played as a photo CD. This is
regardless of any other content on the disc. The
setting for this option becomes valid upon the
subsequent disc loaded into the Model Eleven.
DTS Downmix
This sub-submenu has two choices, either
“STEREO” or “Lt/Rt”. When playing DTS discs
the and the “Digital Audio Out” section of the
Model Eleven has its “DTS” option set to “DTS >
PCM” the Model Eleven can matrix surround
information into a Dolby ProLogic compatible
configuration if the “DTS Downmix” option is set
to “Lt/Rt”. If the converter connected to the
Model Elevens digital outputs is not Dolby
ProLogic capable, then set this option to
“STEREO”.
Using the navigation keys, navigate back to the
left hand column and highlight the “Speakers”
option.
Speakers
This submenu has four sub-submenu choices.
Using the navigation keys, select the “Audio
Output Mode” area.
Audio Output Mode
This sub-submenu has two choices, either “2
Channel” or “5.1 Channel”. If your Model Eleven
is equipped with either of the multi-channel
modules (balanced or unbalanced) and you
have these channels (center, LFE, surround left
or surround right) connected, select the “5.1
Channel” option. If you do not have either of the
multi-channel modules installed or you are not
using any of their outputs, select the “2 Channel”
option.
Speaker Installation
This sub-submenu invokes a graphical display of
the listening room. When selected, you can
provide the Model Eleven with information as to
the presence and type of speaker that you have
connected to each output. Each of the speakers
in use can have various different options,
depending upon the specific speaker. A
minimum of two speakers at the front left and
front right locations are assumed. You can
select either large or small for these two
locations. The effect that these choices have is
to determine the use of bass management. If
small is selected for either of these locations,
then a subwoofer is assumed to be connected to
the LFE output. You cannot select small for
either left or right front without also selecting
“On” for the subwoofer choice. Similarly, when
small is selected for either the center channel or
left and right surround either the front speakers
must be set to large or the subwoofer must be
set to “On”. There must always be at least one
set of low frequency capable speakers in the
system (either a subwoofer or a large and full
range front pair).
