Select the required effect
Movie: This mode enables 5.1 channel surround sound and is suitable for
movies, especially for movies recorded in Dolby Surround. The channel sepa-
ration and the dynamic of the surround effects is comparable to Dolby Digital
5.1.
Pro Logic: This mode enables 4.1 channel surround sound. The left, right and
center channels have a full-frequency, while the surround channels have a lim-
ited frequency; they are mono. The Pro Logic mode is less sensitive to the qual-
ity of the source material. Therefore it may be useful when the Music or Movie
modes do not give good results.
Auto: If you select “Auto”, the device automatically sets the Pro Logic II mode
to “Music” if a Music CD is played. If a DVD-Video disc is played, it automati-
cally sets the Pro Logic II mode to “Movie”.

HDCD
HDCD (High Definition Compatible Digital) is a coding/decoding process with a
clearly improved sound quality for CD and CD-R software which has been
recorded accordingly. The integrated HDCD decoder in the device decodes
these signals and ensures the natural sound characteristics.
Sample rate
Here, you can select the sample rate for HDCD discs, either 44.1 kHz or 88.2
kHz. You can also deactivate this mode.
