CONNECTIONS

SPEAKER PLACEMENT

The ideal surround speaker system for this unit is 7-speaker systems, using front left and right speakers, a center speaker, surround left and right speakers, a surround back left and right speakers, and a subwoofer.

For best results we recommend that all front speakers be of the same type, with identical or similar driver units. This will deliver smooth pans across the front sound stage as the action moves from side to side. Your center channel speaker is very important as over 80 % of the dialog from a typical motion picture emanates from the center channel.

It should possess similar sonic characteristics to the main speakers. Surround channel speakers need not be identical to the front channel speakers, but they should be of high quality.

The surround center speaker is useful for playback of Dolby Digital Surround EX or DTS-ES. One of the benefits of both Dolby Digital and DTS is that surround channels are discrete full range, while they were frequency limited in earlier "Pro Logic" type systems.

Bass effects are an important part of home theater. For optimal enjoyment a subwoofer should be used as it is optimized for low frequency reproduction. If you have full range front speakers, however, they may be used in place of a subwoofer with proper setting of the switches in the menu system.

natural_image Interior view of a room with a person seated in a chair, surrounded by wall-mounted devices and floating objects (no text or symbols visible)

Front left and right speakers

We recommend to set the front L and R speakers with 45-60 degrees from the listening position.

Center speaker

Align the front line of the center speaker with the front L/R speakers. Or place the center speaker a little backward from the line.

Surround left and right speakers

When this unit is used in surround operation, the preferred location for surround speakers is on the side walls of the room, at or slightly behind the listening position.

The center of the speaker should face into the room.

Surround back left and right speakers

Surround back speakers are required when a full 7.1-channel system is installed.

Speakers should be placed on a rear wall, behind the listening position.

The center of the speaker should face into the room.

Subwoofer

We recommend using a sub-woofer to have maximum bass effect. As the subwoofer only handle low frequency. You can place it any where in the room.

HEIGHT OF THE SPEAKER UNITS

Front left and right speakers, and a center speaker Align the tweeters and mid-range drivers on the three front speakers at the same height, as best as possible.

Surround left and right speakers, and surround back speaker

Place the surround left, right and surround back speakers higher than your ears by about 70cm–1m. Also place the speakers at the same height, as best as possible.

CONNECTING HDMI COMPONENTS

An HDMI cable (sold separately) is used to connect the HDMI jack on the unit with the HDMI jack on a DVD player, TV, projector or other component. To transmit multichannel audio via HDMI, the connected player must support multichannel audio transmission through its HDMI jack.

HDMI video streaming is compatible with DVI in principle. Therefore, it is possible to connect to a TV or monitor that has a DVI terminal using an HDMI-DVI conversion cable or plug. When connecting to a DVI terminal, connect the audio signal separately.

Notes:

  • Some HDMI components can be controlled over the HDMI cable, but this unit cannot control other components this way.
  • When connected to a monitor (i.e., TV, projector, etc.) that does not support HDCP, video and audio are not output.

  • Some source devices such as DVD players or set top box do not support HDMI repeater operations like those of the unit. In such case, pictures are not properly projected on monitors such as TVs and projectors.

  • When multiple components are connected to this unit, turn power to unused components off to prevent interference between them.
  • Disconnecting or connecting cables with the power on can damage the equipment. Turn the power off before disconnecting or connecting cables.
  • Some DVD-Audio disks disable downmixing. These types of disks are not played back correctly unless the left, center, right and surround left and right speakers, and subwoofer are connected.
  • If a DVD player that does not support HDMI 1.1 or later is connected to the unit, multi channel PCM playback is not possible even with DVD-Audio disks.
  • If an Super Audio CD player that does not support HDMI 1.2 or later is connected to the unit, DSD playback is not possible even with Super Audio CD.

(*DSD: Direct Stream Digital)

- The following functions are not available when the unit is connected to equipment that does not support HDMI 1.3a.

- Deep Color

• x.v.Color
• Auto Lipsync
- Bitstream audio signal decoding, as for Dolby Digital Plus, Dolby TrueHD, DTS-HD, and so on For details, refer to the user's manuals of connected equipment.
- If a DVD player or other device with DVI output is connected to the unit, a separate audio cable (optical-digital, coaxial digital or analog) is needed for the audio signals. In this case, select the connected audio input as explained in "1-1 FUNC INPUT SETUP". (See page 23)
- Multi channel PCM signals and audio signals of 64 kHz or higher that are input from the HDMI jack are not output from the DIGITAL OUT jacks.
- Depending on the quiality of the cable used, the HDMI signal may be affected by noise.

You can control other Marantz products through this unit with the remote controller by connecting the REMOTE CONTROL terminals on each unit. The signal transmitted from the remote controller is received by the remote sensor on this unit. Then the signal is sent to the connected device through this terminal. Therefore you need to aim the remote control only at the unit. Also, if a Marantz power amplifier (some models excluded) is connected to one of these terminals, the power amplifier's, power switch is synchronized with this unit's power switch. To make REMOTE CONTROL connections with an MM8003, set P.AMPLINK to ENABLE. To make REMOTE CONTROL connections with another power amp, set P.AMPLINK to DISABLE. (See page 34)

Set the REMOTE CONTROL SWITCH on the back of other units (not the AV8003) to "EXT." (EXTERNAL) to use this feature.

Whenever external infrared sensors or similar devices are connected to RC-5 IN of the unit, be sure to always disable operation of the infrared sensor on the unit by using the following procedure.

  1. Hold down the ZONE button and the MENU button on the front panel at the same time for five seconds.
  2. The setting "IR=ENABLE" is shown on the FL DISPLAY.
  3. Press the CURSOR buttons (◀, ▶) to change this to "IR=DISABLE".
  4. Press the ENTER button. Once this setting is made, the infrared sensor on the unit is disabled.

Note:

  • Be sure to set to "IR=ENABLE" when external infrared sensors or similar devices are not connected. Otherwise, the unit will be unable to receive remote control commands.
  • To restore the original setting, perform steps 1 to 4 to set to "IR-ENABLE".

2-1 AUTO SETUP (MultEQ™ SETUP)

The AUTO SETUP (MultEQ™ Setup) feature of the unit measures sound characteristics of the speaker system and room where the unit is used and automatically optimizes settings.

The Audyssey MultEQ™ technology adopted by this unit provides the best listening environment for multiple listeners.

To do this, the AUTO SETUP feature measures a test tone emitted by each channel in a maximum of 6 listening positions, using the supplied microphone. The measurement results are analyzed using an original algorithm and environmental settings are made to improve the sound characteristics of the listening area.

To set up the speaker system (i.e., adjusting speaker distance, etc.) without using the AUTO SETUP feature, see "MANUAL SETUP" on page 29 of the manual.

HOW TO PERFORM AUTO SETUP

During measurement, the OSD menu displays the condition, therefore turn power to the monitor on.

  1. Connect the speakers, power amp of a MM8003 or other amp to this unit and place the speakers in suitable locations.
  2. Connect the supplied microphone to the MIC jack on the unit.

MARANTZ AV8003/ZWA - HOW TO PERFORM AUTO SETUP - 1

VIDEO CONVERT

ANALOG VIDEO CONVERSION

This unit is equipped to convert video signals for monitor output. Because of this, indifferent of the connection (VIDEO, S-VIDEO, COMPONENT VIDEO) between the playback device and this unit, listening and viewing are possible with a single higher grade cable between the MONITOR OUT terminal of the unit and the monitor.

UP-CONVERSION FROM ANALOG VIDEO SIGNALS TO HDMI

The up-conversion feature of this unit can output the input analog video signals (for component video signals of 480i/576i, 480p/576p, 1080i and 720p resolution, and S-Video and Video (composite) of 480i/576i resolution) to the HDMI MONITOR terminal.

Notes:

  • HDMI video input is only output to the HDMI MONITOR OUT terminal of the unit. If connecting a playback device such as a DVD player to the HDMI input jack, connect the HDMI MONITOR OUT terminal of the unit to a TV monitor.
    • This mode is unavailable for the REC out terminal.
  • This mode is unavailable for still picture, fast forward and reverse play on video component.
  • If, while attempting to use the video convert feature, the unit cannot synchronize with the display device, "NO SIGNAL" appears on the monitor or noise is generated, this feature cannot be used. All of these signs are caused by equipment incompatibility; there is nothing wrong with the unit. If this occurs, set "VIDEO CONVERT" in the "VIDEO SETUP" menu to "DISABLE". Next, connect the video input signal to the display component via the MONITOR OUT terminal under VIDEO and the S-video input signal to the display component via the MONITOR OUT terminal under S-VIDEO.

- The video convert feature constantly monitors input video signals and determines whether to convert the input signals or not. However, some input video signals cannot be detected correctly. If this occurs, set "VIDEO CONVERT" in the "VIDEO SETUP" menu to "DISABLE".

ENGLISH

- For optimal video performance, THX recommends setting the "VIDEO CONVERT" mode "DISABLE".

This mode provides 6.1 or 7.1 channel surround sound from conventional stereo sources (analog or digital), such as CD, tape, FM, TV, stereo VCR, etc.

Pro Logic IIx GAME

This mode restores the impact low-frequency surround effects by routing them to the system's subwoofer.

5.1ch + Pro Logic IIx Movie

This mode provides 7.1 channel surround sound from 5.1 channel sources movie soundtracks.

5.1ch + Pro Logic IX Music

This mode provides 6.1 or 7.1 channel surround sound from 5.1 channel sources music soundtracks.

Notes:

- Pro Logic IIx mode will decode as Pro Logic II mode when the SURR, B is set to "NONE" from SPEAKER SETUP menu. (See page 29)

• Pro Logic IIx mode is available for a 2 channel input signal which is encoded in Dolby Digital, HDCD or PCM format.

dts

dts. Neo:6 Cinema. Neo:6 Music

This mode is for DTS-encoded source materials such as laserdisc, CD and DVD. Neo:6 is for some 2 channel sources.

dts

In this mode, THX ASA processing is applied to the surround channels of all 5.1 and 2.0-encoded game sources such as analog, PCM, DTS and Dolby Digital. This accurately places all game audio surround information, providing a full 360-degree playback environment. THX Games mode is unique as it gives you a smooth transition of audio in all points of the surround fi eld.

Neural Surround

Neural Surround™ represents the latest advancement in surround technology developed for music.

Neural Surround ^™ employs psychoacoustic frequency domain processing which allows delivery of a more detailed sound stage with superior channel separation and localization of audio elements. System playback is scalable from 5.1 to 7.1 multi-channel surround playback.

CAUTION

Note for DTS

• To connected DVD player, laserdisc player or CD player needs to support DTS digital output. You may not be able to play some DTS source signals from certain CD players and LD players even if you connect the player to the unit digitally. This is because the digital signal has been processed (such as the output level, sampling frequency or frequency response), and the unit cannot recognize the signal as DTS data.

- Depending on the player used, DTS play may produce a short noise. This is not a malfunction.

- While signals from a DTS laserdisc or CD are playing in another surround mode, you cannot switch to digital input or from digital input to analog input from the INPUT SETUP in the MAIN MENU or by pressing the A/D button.

- You can not listen to DTS-encoded software in a ZONE.

- The outputs for VCR 1 OUT, DSS/VCR 2 OUT, TAPE OUT and CD-R OUT output analog audio signals only. Do not record from CDs or LDs that support DTS using these outputs. If you do, the DTS-encoded signal will be recorded as noise.

Note or Dolby Digital Surround EX

- When playing Dolby Digital Surround EX-encoded software in 6.1 channels, it is required to set the EX/ES mode.

- Note that some Dolby Digital Surround EX-encoded software does not contain the identification signal. In this case, set the EX/ES mode manually.

Note for 96 kHz/192 kHz PCM audio

- The AUTO, Pure Direct, and Stereo modes can be used when playing PCM signals with a sampling frequency of 96/192 kHz (such as from DVD-Video/Audio discs).

- Certain DVD player models inhibit digital output. For details, refer to the player's operation manual.

- Some DVD discs feature copy protection. When using such disc, 96 kHz PCM signal are not output from the DVD player. For details, refer to the player's operation manual.

Note for HDCD

• HDCD is effective only through digital input.

- You may not be able to play some HDCD source signals from certain CD players if you connect the player to the unit digitally. This is because the digital signal has been processed (such as the output level, sampling frequency or frequency response) and the unit cannot recognize the signal as HDCD data.

RDS OPERATION

Now in use in many countries, RDS (Radio Data System) is a description of the station's programming hidden space in the FM signal.

Your new unit is equipped with RDS to assist in the selection of FM stations using station and network names, rather than broadcast frequencies. Additional RDS functions include the ability to search for programme types.

RADIO TEXT

Some RDS stations broadcast RADIO TEXT, which is additional information on the station and programme being broadcast.

RADIO TEXT information appears as 'running' text in the display. RADIO TEXT is transmitted character by the radio station. As a result of that it may take some time until the entire text has been completely received.

RDS DISPLAY

When a unit is tuned to an FM station that is transmitting RDS data, the Front Panel Information Display will automatically show the station name or RDS TEXT in place of the typical display of the station's broadcast frequency.

To change the display, switch the remote controller to TUNER mode and press the </ / > button until 004 is displayed. Press the DISPLAY button.

PROGRAMME TYPE (PTY) DISPLAY

The RDS system categorizes programmes according to their genre into different programme type (PTY) groups. To display the programme type information of the current station, switch the remote controller to TUNER mode and press the < / > button until 004 is displayed. Press the PTY button.

  1. Press the PTY button in the TUNER MODE on the remote controller. The current station's PTY will be displayed, or the currently selected PTY group will be displayed in blinking if no station or RDS data is present.
  2. To change to a new PTY type, press the TUNING ▲ or ▼ button on the front panel or numeric buttons on the remote controller until the desired PTY is shown in the display.
  3. Once the desired PTY group or type has been selected, press the PTY button while the display blink (approx. 5 seconds). The PTY Auto search will start, and the tuner will pause at each station broadcasting RDS PTY information corresponding to the selected choice.
  4. To advance to the next RDS station with the desired PTY, press the PTY button again within 5 seconds.

ZONE SYSTEM

The Zone System mode allows the same source or different sources to be heard in two ZONEs other than where this unit is installed.
To use the zone system, connect the audio from the ZONE OUT A and B AUDIO output terminals to the ZONE A and B amps.
Connect the VIDEO output (ZONE OUT) terminal to the monitor in Zone A. (ZONE OUT terminal is linked to the source selector in Zone A.)
If a surround channel back speaker or speaker C (see page 18) are not used in the ZONE where this unit is installed, the zone speaker system can be used with the amp for the surround back channel.
Also, the COMPONENT VIDEO MONITOR OUT 2 terminal can be used for the monitor output of ZONE A.
This unit supports zone system functions such as source selectors, OSD menu systems, sleep timers and remote control.

text_image THX ULTRA2. RECOMMENDED USE All Home Theaters or Living Rooms THX CERTIFICATION FEATURES THX Surround EX THX Cinema, Music, Games Modes: ■ Re-Equalization ■ Timbre Matching ■ Adaptive Decorrelation ■ ASA Technology Boundary Gain Compensation THX Bass Management System ADDITIONAL THX TECHNOLOGIES Neural-THX Surround Visit www.thx.com for further technical details.

THX® is an exclusive set of standards and technologies established by the world-renowned film production company. Lucasli Im Ltd. THX resulted from George Lucas' desire to reproduce the movie soundtrack as faithfully as possible both in the movie theater and in the home theater.

THX engineers developed patented technologies to accurately translate the sound from a movie theater environment into the home, correcting the tonal and spatial errors that occur.

When the THX mode of the unit is on, three distinct THX technologies are automatically added:

Re-Equalization-restores the correct tonal balance for watching a movie in a home environment.

These sounds are otherwise mixed to be brighter for a large movie theater. Re-EQ compensates for this and prevents the soundtracks from being overly bright and harsh when played in a home theater.

Timbre Matching-fi Iters the information going to the surround speakers so they more closely match the tonal characteristics of the sound coming from the front speakers.

This ensures seamless panning between the front and surround speakers.

Adaptive Decorrelation-slightly changes one surround channel's time and phase relationship with respect to the other surround channel.

This expands the listening position and creates with only two surround speakers the same spacious surround experience as in a movie theater with multiple surround speakers.

The unit was required to pass a rigorous series of quality and performance tests, in addition to incorporating the technologies explained above, in order to be THX certified.

THX requirements cover every aspect of performance including pre-amplifier and power amplifier performance and operation, and hundreds of other parameters in both the digital and analog domain.

Movies which have been encoded in Dolby Digital, DTS, Dolby Pro Logic, stereo and Mono will all benefit from the THX mode when being viewed.

The THX mode should only be activated when watching movies which were originally produced for a movie theater environment.

THX need not be activated for music, movies made especially for TV, or shows such as sports programming, talk shows, etc.

This is because they were originally mixed for a small room environment.

The THX logo is a trademark of THX Ltd. which may be registered in some jurisdictions. All rights reserved.

THX SURROUND EX

THX Surround EX—Dolby Digital Surround EX is a joint development of Dolby Laboratories and THX Ltd.

In a movie theater, fi Im soundtracks that have been encoded with Dolby Digital Surround EX technology are able to reproduce an extra channel which has been added during the mixing of the program. This channel, called Surround Back, places sounds behind the listener in addition to the currently available front left, front center, front right, surround 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.

Movies that were created using the Dolby Digital Surround EX technology, when released into the home consumer market may exhibit wording to that effect on the packaging. A list of movies created using this technology can be found on the Dolby web site at www.dolby.com. A list of available DVD software titles encoded with this technology an be found at www.thx.com.

Only receiver and controller products bearing the THX Surround EX logo, when in the THX Surround EX mode, faithfully reproduce this new technology in the home. This product may also engage the THX Surround EX mode during the playback of 5.1 channel material that is not Dolby Digital Surround EX eoccended. In such case, the information delivered to the Surround Back channel will be program dependent and may or may not be very pleasing depending on the particular soundtrack and the tastes of the individual listener.

The THX Ultra2 specification provides uncompromised 7.1 channel playback of any multi-channel program, whether movie soundtracks or music over the widest possible seating area.

There are an additional two processing's for THX Ultra2 as bellow.

A.S.A. (Advanced Speaker Array)

"ASA" is a proprietary THX technology which processes the sound fed to 2 surround and 2 surround back speakers to provide the optimal surround sound experience. When you set up your home theater system using all eight speaker outputs (Left, Center, Right, Surround Right, Surround Back Right, Surround Back Left, Surround Left and Subwoofer), placing the two Surround Back speakers close together facing the front of the room as shown in the diagram will provide the largest sweet spot. If for practical reasons you have to place the Surround Back speakers apart, you will need to go to the THX Audio Set-up screen and choose the setting that most closely corresponds to the speaker distance, which will re-optimize the surround sound-fi eld. ASA is used in two new surround modes; THX Ultra2 Cinema, THX Music Mode and THX Games mode.

B.G.C. (Boundary Gain Compensation)

If your chosen listening room layout (for practical or aesthetic reasons) results in most of the listeners being close to the rear wall, the resulting bass level can be suffi cienly reinforced by the boundary that the overall sound quality becomes "boomy". THX Ultra2 receivers contain the BGC (Boundary Gain Compensation) feature to provide an improved bass balance. BGC can be selected by choosing "THX Ultra2 Subwoofer-Yes" from the "Boundary Gain Compensation" section of the "THX Audio setup menu".

- dts Digital Surround

DTS was introduced in 1994 to provide 5.1 channels of discrete digital audio into home theater systems. DTS brings you premium quality discrete multichannel digital sound to both movies and music.

DTS is a multichannel sound system designed to create full range digital sound reproduction.

ENGLISH

The no compromise DTS digital process sets the standard of quality for cinema sound by delivering an exact copy of the studio master recordings to neighborhood and home theaters.

Now, every moviegoer can hear the sound exactly as the moviemaker intended.

DTS can be enjoyed in the home for either movies or music on of DVD's, LD's, and CD's.

• dts Neo:6 ^®

The advantages of discrete multichannel systems over matrix are well known.

But even in homes equipped for discrete multichannel, there remains a need for high-quality matrix decoding. This is because of the large library of matrix surround motion pictures available on disc and on VHS tape; and analog television broadcasts.

The typical matrix decoder of today derives a center channel and a mono surround channel from two-channel matrix stereo material. It is better than a simple matrix in that it includes steering logic to improve separation, but because of its mono, band-limited surround it can be disappointing to users accustomed to discrete multichannel.

Neo:6 offers several important improvements as follow.

- Neo:6 provides up to six full-band channels of matrix decoding from stereo matrix material. Users with 6.1 and 5.1 systems will derive six and five separate channels, respectively, corresponding to the standard home-theater speaker layouts.

- Neo:6 technology allows various sound elements within a channel or channels to be steered separately, and in a way which follows naturally from the original presentation.

- Neo:6 offers a music mode to expand stereo nonmatrix recordings into the fl ve- or six-channel layout, in a way which does not diminish the subtlety and integrity of the original stereo recording.

- dts Digital Surround ES ^®

DTS-ES Extended Surround is a now multichannel digital signal format developed by Digital Theater Systems Inc. While offering high compatibility with the conventional DTS Digital Surround format, DTS-ES Extended Surround greatly improves the 360-degree surround impression and space expression thanks to further expanded surround signals. This format has been used professionally in movie theaters since 1999.

In addition to the 5.1 surround channels (FL, FR, C, SL, SR and LFE), DTS-ES Extended Surround also offers the SB (Surround Back) channel for surround playback with a total of 6.1 channels. DTS-ES Extended Surround includes two signal formats with different surround signal recording methods, as DTS-ES Discrete 6.1 and DTS-ES Matrix 6.1.

• dts Digital Surround 96/24

The stereo CD is a 16-bit medium with sampling at 44.1kHz . Professional audio has been 20- or 24-bit for some time, and there is increasing interest in higher sampling rates both for recording and for delivery into the home. Greater bit depths provide extended dynamic range. Higher sampling rates allow wider frequency response and the use of anti-alias and reconstruction fiters with more favorable aural characteristics.

DTS 96/24 allows for 5.1 channel sound tracks to be encoded at a rate of 96kHz/24bits on DVD-Video titles.

When DVD-video appeared, it became possible to deliver 24-bit, 96 kHz audio into the home, but only in two channels, and with serious limitations on picture. This capability has had little use.

DVD audio allows 96/24 in six channels, but a new player is needed, and only analog outputs are provided, necessitating the use of the D/A converters and analog electronics provided in the player.

DTS 96/24 offers the following

  1. Sound quality transparent to the original 96/24 master.

  2. Full backward compatibility with all existing decoders. (Existing decoders will output a 48 kHz signal)

  3. No new player required: DTS 96/24 can be carried on DVD-video, or in the video zone of DVD-audio, accessible to all DVD players.
  4. 96/24 5.1-channel sound with full-quality full-motion video, for music programs and motion picture soundtracks on DVD-video.

dts-HD

Master Audio

DOLBY

DIGITAL EX

PROLOGIC IX

Dolby Digital identifies the use of Dolby Digital audio coding for such consumer formats as DVD and DTV. As with fi Im sound, Dolby Digital can provide up to fi ve full-range channels for left, center, and right screen channels, independent left and right surround channels, and a sixth (.1") channel for low-frequency effects.
Dolby Surround Pro Logic II is an improved matrix decoding technology that provides better spatiality and directionality on Dolby Surround program material; provides a convincing three-dimensional soundfield on conventional stereo music recordings and is ideally suited to bring the surround experience to automotive sound. While conventional surround programming is fully compatible with Dolby Surround

Pro Logic II decoders, soundtracks will be able to be encoded specifically to take full advantage of Pro Logic II playback, including separate left and right surround channels. (Such material is also compatible with conventional Pro Logic decoders.)

Dolby Digital EX creates six full-bandwidth output channels from 5.1-channel sources. This is done using a matrix decoder that derives three surround channels from the two in the original recording. For best results, Dolby Digital EX should be used with movies soundtracks recorded with Dolby Digital Surround EX.

The Dolby Headphone technology provides a surround sound listening experience over headphones. When listening to multichannel content such as DVD movies over headphones, the listening experience is fundamentally different than listening to speakers. Since the headphone speaker drivers are covering the pinna of the ear, the listening experience differs greatly from traditional speaker playback. Dolby utilizes patented headphone perspective curves to solve this problem and provides a non-fatiguing, immersive, home theater listening experience. Dolby Headphone also delivers exceptional 3D audio from stereo material.

Circle Surround II (CS-II) is a powerful and versatile multichannel technology. CS-II is designed to enable up to 6.1 multichannel surround sound playback from mono, stereo, CS encoded sources and other matrix encoded sources. In all cases the decoder extends it into 6 channels of surround audio and a LFE/subwoofer signal. The CS-II decoder creates a listening environment that places the listener "inside" music performances and dramatically improves both hi-fi audio conventional surround-encoded video material. CS-II provides composite stereo rear channels to greatly improve separation and image positioning—adding a heightened sense of realism to both audio and A/V productions.

CS-II is packed with other useful feature like dialog clarity (SRS Dialog) for movies and cinema-like bass enrichment (TruBass). CS-II can enable the dialog to become clearer and more discernable in movies and it enables the bass frequencies contained in the original programming to more closely achieve low frequencies—overcoming the low frequency limitations of the speakers by full octave.

AUDYSSEY

"MULTEQ"

There are several factors that can degrade the sound from even the best loudspeakers in a listening room. One of the most important is the interaction of sound from the loudspeakers with large surfaces such as walls, the floor, and the ceiling in the room. Even with careful loudspeaker placement and acoustical treatments, there are significant problems that are caused by room acoustics. These include reflections from nearby surfaces and standing waves that are created between large parallel surfaces in the room. In a home theater the situation is further complicated because there are several listening locations. The effects of room acoustics on the sound arriving at each person's ears are very different and the result is a listening experience that is degraded in a different way for every person in the room. It is not uncommon to have variations in two adjacent seats that are as large as 10 dB, particularly in the frequency range below 250 Hz.

The solution to this problem is to apply room correction after precisely measuring how each loudspeaker interacts with the room. Because the room causes variations in the frequency response of the loudspeakers that are so large from seat to seat, it is important to measure each loudspeaker at several locations in the listening room. This should be done even if there is only one listener. Measurement at a single location is not representative of the acoustical problems in the room and will in most cases, degrade overall performance. Audyssey MultEQ is the only technology that can achieve room correction for multiple listeners in a large listening area. It does so by combining the data collected at several points in the room from each loudspeaker and then applying correction that minimizes the acoustical effects of the room and is matched to the frequency resolution of human perception (known as psychoacoustics).

ENGLISH

Furthermore, MultEO correction is applied both in frequency and time domains and so there are no artifacts (such as smearing of sound or modal ringing) that are sometimes associated with traditional methods of room equalization.

In addition to correcting frequency response problems over a wide listening area, Audyssey MultEQ provides a completely automated sound system set-up process. It identifies how many loudspeakers are connected to the amplifiers and whether they are full-range, satellites, or subwoofers. If there is a least one subwoofer connected, Audyssey MultEQ determines the optimum crossover frequency between each satellite and the subwoofer(s). It automatically checks the polarity of each loudspeaker and alerts the user if there are any that may be wired out-of-phase relative to the others. It measures the distance to each loudspeaker from the main listening position and adjusts the delays so that sound from each loudspeaker arrives at the same time. Finally, Audyssey MultEQ determines the playback level of each loudspeaker and adjusts the volume trims so that all levels are equal.
