such as a subwoofer and external power amplifiers.
• 2 Digital outputs for connection to CD-R or MD.
• High-quality AM / FM tuner with 50 station presets.
• Source Direct switch bypasses, tone controls and bass management
DESCRIPTION for purest sound quality.
• S-video and composite video switch.

DTS was introduced in 1994 to provide 5.1 channels of discrete digital

audio into home theater systems.
DTS brings you premium quality, discrete multi-channel digital sound
to both movies and music.
DTS is a multi-channel sound system designed to create full range
digital sound reproduction.
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 DVD’s,
LD’s and CD’s.

]
Dolby Digital lets you enjoy Digital TV, Digital Satellite as well as DVD,
LD software in digital surround, which is the next step above Dolby Pro
Logic.
In Comparison with Dolby Pro Logic, Dolby Digital can provide
separate left surround and right surround channels, for more precise
localization of sound and a more convincing, realistic ambience.
And, with Dolby Digital all five main channels can be full ranged and a
subwoofer can be added to each channel, if desired.
By providing up to 5.1 channels of digital audio independently. Dolby
Digital lets you enjoy better sound quality and more powerful presence
than conventional Dolby Surround.

Pro Logic II, the next generation in Dolby Surround Pro Logic
technology, brings the excitement of surround sound to any existing
stereo mix, while making existing Dolby Surround mixes sound more
like discrete 5.1-channel surround sound. It works with CDs, VHS
tapes and TV shows, and MP3 files and radio broadcasts-converting
all of these source to surround sound, without the artifacts by other
matrix-decoding technologies.

 SURROUND MODES
ENGLISH

The SR4200 incorporates digital signal processors (DSP) which can reproduce various surround effects you experience in concert halls and movie
theaters, etc. These Surround Modes, are provided to reproduce a variety of surround sound effects, according to the content of the source to be played.

Surroud mode FEATURES

1. AUTO When this mode is selected, the receiver determines whether the digital input signal is Dolby Digital, PCM-audio or DTS.
Note:
When a Dolby Digital or DTS signal is input, the number of channels for which the corresponding signal is encoded will be
played.
Inputting a Dolby Digital two channel signal with Dolby surround status automatically subjects that signal to ProLogicII
processing before play.
96 kHz source material can be playback in this mode and 96k will be shown in the display.

2. STEREO This mode bypasses all surround processing.

Stereo program sources the left and right channels play normaly when PCM-audio or analog stereo is input.
With Dolby Digital and DTS sources, the 5.1 multi-channels are converted to two channel stereo. 96 kHz source material can be
playback in this mode and 96k will be shown in the display.

3. 2 This mode is used with source materials encoded in Dolby Digital and Dolby Surround.
Dolby Pro Logic II brings the excitement of surround sound to any stereo mix, while making existing Dolby Surround mixes
sound more like discrete 5.1 channels Surround sound.
Dolby Pro Logic II has below 3 modes.

MOVIE This mode provides 5.1 channel surround sound from Dolby Surround encoded stereo movie sound tracks.

MUSIC This mode provides 5.1 channel surround sound from conventional stereo sources, analog or digital, such as CD, tape, FM,
TV, stereo VCR, etc.

PRO LOGIC This mode emulated original Dolby Pro Logic decoding (3/1 surround) suit for Dolby Surround encoded stereo movie
soundtracks.
Note:
PCM-audio signals can be subjected to Pro Logic processing when the sampling frequency is 32 kHz, 44.1 kHz or 48 kHz.
When a signal in another format is input, output will be muted.

4. DTS This mode is for DTS encoded source materials such as LASER DISC, CD, and DVD.
The DTS mode cannot be used when an Analog input has been selected. When the signal in another digital format is input,
output will be muted.

5. MOVIE These modes provide surround effect processing from each input source material.
HALL They will produce theater, concert hall and stadium like atmospheres. Select as your taste desires.
MATRIX Note:
GAME PCM-audio (32 kHz, 44.1 kHz or 48 kHz) and analog source material can playback in this mode.

6. VIRTUAL This mode create the virtual surround sound with the front right and left speakers.
Note:
PCM-audio (32 kHz, 44.1 kHz or 48 kHz) and analog source material can playback in this mode.

7. 5-STEREO This mode is used to create a wider, deeper and more natural soundstage from two channel source material.
This is done by feeding the left channel signal to both left front and left surround speaker and the right channel signal to both
right front and right surround speaker. Additionally, the center channel reproduces a mix of the right and left channel.
Note:
The 96 kHz sampling frequency mutes output.

Caution for DTS signal: Caution for 96kHz PCM-audio signal:

output terminal to output noise. Before playing DTS sources, be
sure to connect the player’s digital output to the SR4200’s digital
input. Be careful when connecting the output of these players to
analog audio input.
Note that the SR4200 has the following restrictive functions built in
to reduce noise emission as much as possible.
If DTS is selected while in the Surround mode, digital input cannot
be switched to analog input. When the analog input function has
been selected, Surround mode cannot be switched to DTS.
While signals from DTS-laser disc or CD are playing in another
Surround mode, you cannot switch to digital input or from digital
input to analog input.
