This channel, called surround back, places sounds
behind the listener in addition to the currently

right, surround left and subwoofer channels.
This additional channel provides the opportunity
for more detailed imaging behind the listener and
brings more depth, spacious ambience and sound
localization than ever before.

not have without surround back speaker(s).
DTS-ES (Discrete 6.1, Matrix 6.1)
DTS-ES adds the surround center channel audio to

more natural with the 6.1 channel reproduction.
The SR6001 incorporates a DTS-ES-decoder, which
can handle DTS-ES Discrete-encoded and DTS-ES
Matrix-encoded program sources from DVD, etc.
DTS-ES Discrete 6.1 features digital discrete

• Speaker size is set to Front L/R = LARGE, Center =
LARGE, Surround L/R = LARGE and Subwoofer
= YES automatically. Tone controls, equalizer and
additional processing are deactivated.
• When you use this mode with certain DVD and CD
players, performing operations such as skip or stop
may momentarily interrupt the output.
PURE DIRECT
The Pure Direct mode further reduces sources of
noise in addition to effect of the Source Direct mode,
by blocking output from the video jacks (VIDEO,
S-VIDEO, COMPONENT VIDEO and HDMI) and
turning the FL display off.
AUTO
When this mode is selected, the SR6001 determines
whether the digital input signal is Dolby Digital, Dolby
Digital Surround EX, DTS, DTS-ES, DTS 96/24 or
PCM audio.
Surround EX & DTS-ES will operate for multichannel
sources that have a Dolby Digital Surround EX or
DTS-ES auto trigger fl ag in the digital signal.
When a Dolby Digital or DTS signal is input, the
number of channels for which the corresponding
signal is encoded will be played.
Inputting a Dolby Digital two channel signal with
Dolby surround status automatically subjects that
signal to Pro Logic IIx movie processing before play.
PCM 96 kHz source material can be played in this
mode.
Notes:
• When you use this mode with certain DVD and CD
players, performing operations such as skip or stop
may momentarily interrupt the output.
