When using the amplifier after upgrading it, please refer to these instructions as well as the operating instructions included with the AVR5800/AVC-A1SE. q Speaker Configuration THX/ THX 5.1 WIDE SCREEN 5CH/7CH STEREO DSP SIMULATION EXT. IN-1 EXT. IN-2 -- Surround Speaker Setting Surround speaker A A A A A A A -- 4 FEATURES This upgrade adds the following functions and specifications: 1. Lucasfilm THX Ultra2 Certified Home THX is the unique collaboration between Lucasfilm Ltd. and audio equipment manufacturers. THX Ultra2 certification is the highest performance level, and provides a rigorous set of performance standards, along with proprietary surround sound post-processing technologies, designed to enhance the surround soundtrack playback experience in the home theater. In addition to improvements to the power amplifier with respect to previous THX Ultra standards, two surround modes have been added: the THX Ultra2 Cinema mode and the THX Music mode. 2. DTS 96/24 compatibility The AVR-5800/AVC-A1SE Upgrade is compatible with sources recorded in DTS 96/24, a new multi-channel digital signal format developed by Digital Theater Systems Inc. DTS 96/24 sources can be played in the multi-channel mode on the AVR-5800/AVC-A1SE Upgrade with high sound quality of 96 kHz/24 bits or 88.2 kHz/24 bits. 3. Dolby Pro Logic II decoder Dolby Pro Logic II is a new format for playing multichannel audio signals that offers improvements over conventional Dolby Pro Logic. It can be used to decode not only sources recorded in Dolby Surround but also regular stereo sources into five channels (front left/right, center and surround left/right). In addition, various parameters can be set according to the type of source and the contents, so you can adjust the sound field with greater precision. 4. Dolby Headphone Compatibility This is a three-dimensional sound technology developed jointly by Dolby Laboratories and Lake Technoligy Ltd. of Australia for achieving surround sound using regular headphones. 5. DENON Link This terminal can be used to connect a Denon DVD player for high quality digital multichannel playback. 6. Digital Ext. In This is a function for future system expansion when using digital multichannel connections. 7. Auto Surround Mode This function stores the surround mode last used for an input signal in the memory and automatically sets that surround mode the next time that signal is input. 8. Audio Delay This is a function for delaying the audio signal with respect to the video signal. (0 to 200 msec) 9. Setup Lock This is a function that locks the system setup and surround parameter settings, etc., so that they cannot be changed. 10. Delay Time The maximum settable value has been changed from 15 feet to 20 feet, the setting steps from 1 foot to 0.1 feet. w e Crossover Frequency Subwoofer mode Set the frequency (Hz) below which the bass sound of the various speakers is to be output from the subwoofer. This selects the subwoofer speaker for playing deep bass signals. This parameter is for optimizing the timing with which the audio signals are produced from the speakers and subwoofer according to the listening position. This adjusts the volume of the signals output from the speakers and subwoofer for the different channels in order to obtain optimum effects. Boundary Gain compensation Surround Back Speaker Position When using a THX Ultra2 compatible subwoofer, set the subwoofer's frequency response.

Lucasfilm THX Ultra2 zertifiziert Home THX ist die einzigartige Zusammenarbeit zwischen Lucasfilm Ltd. und Herstellern von Audiogeräten. Die THX Ultra 2 Zertifikation ist die höchste Qualitätsnorm und bietet eine Vielzahl von rigorosen Leistungsstandards zusammen mit eigenen Surroundklang-Nacharbeitungstechnologien. Dadurch wird die Surround-SoundtrackWiedergabe in Ihrem Heimkino zu einem immer wieder unvergesslichen Erlebnis. Neben Verbesserungen am Leistungsverstärker im Vergleich zu früheren THX Ultra Standards, wurden die Surround-Modi um zwei weitere Modi ergänzt: Dem THX Ultra2 Kino-Modus und dem THX Musik-Modus. 2. DTS 96/24-Kompatibilität Der AVR-5800/AVC-A1SE Upgrade ist mit in DTS 96/24 aufgenommenen Quellen kompatibel; bei DTS 96/24 handelt es sich um ein neues Multikanal-Digitalsignal-Format, das von Digital Theater Systems Inc. entwickelt wurde. DTS 96/24-Quellen können im Multikanal-Betrieb des AVR-5800/AVC-A1SE Upgrade mit einer hohen Tonqualität von 96 kHz/24 Bits oder 88,2 kHz/24 Bits wiedergegeben werden. 3. Dolby Pro Logic II-Dekoder Dolby Pro Logic II ist ein neues Format für die Wiedergabe von Multikanal-Audiosignalen. Dieses neue Format enthält Verbesserungen des herkömmlichen Dolby Pro Logic.
