DTS:X
This mode faithfully reproduces the sound design recorded
in the DTS:X format.
The DTS:X audio format is a combination of the mixing
methodology based on past channel based formats and
object based dynamic audio mixing, and it is characterized
by the precise positioning of sounds and the ability to
express movement.
0 To enable transfer of this audio format, connect via HDMI
cable and set audio output on the player to bitstream
output.
Ent.Show (Entertainment Show)
Suitable for rock or pop music, Listening to music in this
mode creates a lively sound field with a powerful acoustic
image, like being at a club or rock concert.
Ext.Mono (Extended Mono)
In this mode, all speakers output the same sound in mono,
so the sound you hear is the same regardless of where you
are within the listening room.

This mode is ideal for background music. Stereo sound is
played through the surround speakers as well as the front
speakers, creating a stereo image.
F.S.Surround (Front Stage Surround)

multichannel surround sound even when surround
speakers have not been installed. This works by controlling
how sounds reach the listener's left and right ears.
Mono
In this mode, when the input signal is analog or PCM, the
left and right front speakers output the sound in monaural.
PCM

PCM.
