SURROUND MODES
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 7.4.2).
VCR Analog Dolby Pro Logic Source Material: With analog, there is no way for any processor to detect Dolby
Pro Logic 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 automatically detects the digital format that you select in the DVD menu and 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 DD-5.1) and DTS Neo:6 (for DTS-5.1).
To make operation easier, these can only be turned on or off after the movie has started and the AVM 20 has
detected the format. As soon as the display reads either DD-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 the last setting for these additional surround modes is remembered so you
do not have to change them from movie to movie.
Note: Surround modes for stereo source material are not available for 5.1-channel source material.
