5.8 SURROUND MODES
A surround mode is signal processing that enhances original source material.
There are two types of surround modes – those that apply to stereo source
material and those that pertain to 5.1-channel source material.
Stereo Source Material:
This includes both analog stereo and digital stereo (stereo PCM or Dolby Digital-2.0) source material. Various
surround modes can be applied, some of which can provide up to 7.1 channels of output. These are
described in detail in section 5.8.1. Each Source also keeps its own Mode setting, so you can, for example,
set VCR to ‘AnthemLogic-Cinema’, and then set CD to ‘AnthemLogic-Music’ – when you switch to each
Source, their respective Mode will be remembered.
Note: Surround modes are not available for inputs set to Anlg-Dir (see section 7.4.5).
Regarding analog VCR input: With analog, there is no way for any processor to detect Dolby Surround
encoded material. Dolby Pro Logic must therefore be turned on manually by selecting it in the Mode options.
All other stereo source surround modes are also available.
5.1-Channel Source Material:
The AVM 20 detects the digital format that you select in the DVD menu and automatically engages either
Dolby Digital-5.1 or DTS-5.1 – whichever applies – to provide 5.1 discrete channels. Each format also has an
additional Mode that can be applied – Dolby Digital EX (for Dolby D-5.1) and DTS Neo:6 (for DTS-5.1).
To make operation easier, these additional modes can only be turned on/off after the movie has started and
the AVM 20 has detected the format. As soon as the display reads either Dolby D-5.1 or DTS-5.1, you can set
the additional surround mode On or Off – there is usually plenty of time to do so when the film studio’s logos
are played at the beginning of the movie. The last setting for these additional surround modes is remembered
so you do not have to change them from movie to movie (see sections 5.8.4 and 5.8.5).
Note: Surround modes for stereo source material are not available for 5.1-channel source material.
