DOLBY PRO LOGIC IIx
Dolby Pro Logic IIx processes both stereo and 5.1 signals into a 6.1 or 7.1 channel output. At Dolby
Pro Logic IIx, you can choose PLIIx Movie or PLIIx Music modes to tailor your listening experience
to the source material. Dolby Pro Logic IIx surround processing yields more stable imaging and full
bandwidth sound to the rear channels in Movie mode oering sound that is more similar to Dolby
Digital decoding. For two channel signals, Pro Logic IIx Music mode also features three additional user
controls - Dimension, Center Width, and Panorama. See also section about ‘Adjusting Listening Modes’
below.
The following chart shows the channels available assuming they are enabled in the ‘Speaker
Conguration’ menu:

DTS NEO: 6
Two-channel recordings, whether stereo or surround-encoded, are reproduced with Neo: 6 surround
with output to front left/right, center and discrete left/right surround channels plus subwoofer
(assuming these are present in the current ‘Speaker Conguration’). The T 765 provides two DTS Neo: 6
variations - NEO:6 Cinema and NEO:6 Music. See also section about ‘Adjusting Listening Modes’ below.
EARS
Two-channel recordings, whether stereo or surround-encoded, are reproduced with proprietary NAD
surround processing with signals output to the front left/right, center and discrete left/right surround
channels, plus subwoofer (assuming these are present in the current ‘Speaker Conguration.’). EARS
does not employ the surround back speakers (if any).
EARS extracts the natural ambience present in nearly all well-produced stereo recordings. It does not
synthesize any ambience or other sonic elements and thus remains truer to the sound of the original
musical performance than most other music-surround options.
Select EARS for listening to stereo music recordings and broadcasts. EARS produces a subtle but highly
natural and believable ambience from nearly all “natural-acoustic” stereo recordings. Typically, these
include classical, jazz, and folk genres as well as numerous examples from others. Its virtues include
realistic, stable “front-stage” sonic imaging and spacious but unexaggerated ambient “virtual acoustics”
that remain faithful to the original recording.
ENHANCED STEREO
All recordings are reproduced in stereo via the maximum speaker complement congured in the
current ‘Speaker Conguration.’ Enhanced stereo can be useful for maximum volume from all channels
or for multi-speaker background music (cocktail party) listening. For this mode, Front, Center, Surround
and Back speakers can be turned ON/OFF as desired.
ANALOG BYPASS
All analog signals remain in the analog domain without analog-to-digital conversions. At Analog
Bypass, the DSP circuitry is bypassed but full tone control functions remain. ‘Bass management’ or
Speaker settings are also not in eect as these are DSP functions.
