DENON ORIGINAL SURROUND MODES

• The AVC-A1SR is equipped with a built-in high performance DSP (digital signal processor) that uses digital
processing to recreate sound fields artificially. Select one of the eight provided surround modes according to
the program source you want to play and adjust the parameters to achieve a more real, powerful sound field.
Surround modes and their features
Select this to achieve an atmosphere like that of a movie theater with a large screen. In this
mode, all signal sources are played in the 7.1-channel mode, including Dolby Pro Logic and Dolby
1 WIDE SCREEN
Digital 5.1-channel sources. Effects simulating the multi surround speakers of movie theaters are
added to the surround channels.
Select this when watching baseball or soccer programs to achieve a sound as if you were actually
2 SUPER STADIUM
at the stadium. This mode provides the longest reverberation signals.
Use this mode to achieve the feeling of a live concert in an arena with reflected sounds coming
3 ROCK ARENA
from all directions.
This mode creates the sound field of a live house with a low ceiling and hard walls. This mode
4 JAZZ CLUB
gives jazz a very vivid realism.
CLASSIC
5 Select this for the sound of a concert hall rich in reverberations.
CONCERT
MONO MOVIE
6 Select this when watching monaural movies for a greater sense of expansion.
(NOTE 1)
Select this to emphasize the sense of expansion for music sources recorded in stereo. Signals
7 MATRIX consisting of the difference component of the input signals (the component that provides the
sense of expansion) processed for delay are output from the surround channel.
The front left channel signals are output to the surround and surround back signal left channels,
the front right channel signals are output to the surround and surround back signal right channels,
8 5CH/7CH STEREO
and the in-phase component of the left and right channels is output to the center channel. Use
this mode to enjoy stereo sound.
Depending on the program source being played, the effect may not be very noticeable.
In this case, try other surround modes, without worrying about their names, to create a sound field suited to
your tastes.
NOTE 1: When playing sources recorded in monaural, the sound will be one-sided if signals are only input to
one channel (left or right), so input signals to both channels. If you have a source component with only
one audio output (monophonic camcorder, etc.) obtain a "Y" adaptor cable to split the mono output
to two outputs, and connect to the L and R inputs.
Personal Memory Plus
This set is equipped with a personal memorize function that automatically memorizes the surround modes
and input modes selected for the input different sources. When the input source is switched, the modes set
for that source last time it was used are automatically recalled.
The surround parameters, tone control settings and playback level balance for the different output
channels are memorized for each surround mode.

NOTES:
• When "Default" is selected and the jog stick is moved to the left, "CINEMA EQ." and "D. COMP." are
automatically set to "OFF". In addition, "ROOM SIZE" is set to "medium", "EFFECT LEVEL" to "10" and
"DELAY TIME" to "30ms".
• The "ROOM SIZE" expresses the expansion effect for the different surround modes in terms of the size
of the sound field, not the actual size of the listening room.
