Decode Mode indicators
The processor automatically identifies the format of the input audio signal and the corresponding
indicator lights up. Switch the audio between Dolby Digital, DTS, etc., on the connected equipment
(BD/DVD device, digital satellite/TV receiver, etc.).
Dolby Digital: Input signal recorded in the Dolby Digital format.
Dolby PLIIx: Analog input signal, digital input PCM signal, or Dolby Digital signal processed by
DOLBY PRO LOGIC IIx.
(If the EFFECT switch is set to "OFF" or "VOICE (STEREO), " it is not processed by DOLBY PRO
LOGIC IIx.)
DTS: Input signal recorded in the DTS format.
Note
If the equipment connected to the DIGITAL IN jack is not playing back (fast forwarding, rewinding,
etc.), the Decode Mode indicators may not light up correctly.

are enhanced.

and classical music.
