Sound Logic
This function is designed for modifying a disc’s sound output by boosting or attenuating certain settings.
For night-time listening, use dynamic compression to avoid disturbing your neighbours. The player then
adjusts the differences in sound levels. It becomes easier to hear soft sounds while the louder sounds are
dampened.
• Select Sound then Sound Logic, and press ok to validate. Select None Aucun if you want to
retain the original sound, Compressed to dampen differences in sound levels by using digital
compression, or Voice+ to boost the central channel’s sound in 5.1 multichannel playback.
Digital audio output
Depending on the audio device connected to the digital output (coaxial or optical), you should
parameterize your DVD drive with the help of the following instructions.
• Select
Digital Output, then configure all settings (Dolby Digital, DTS), using the
Navigation keys.
Virtual Surround (SRS (1) - TruSurround)
This function provides you with virtual reproduction of the multichannel sound of a Dolby or DTS
film onto the two channels of your TV or stereo amplifier. The sound effects of a 5.1 system are then
simulated.
• Select Sound then Virtual Surround and position the function on On with the ok key.
Dolby Digital is a sound
compression technique elaborated by Dolby
Laboratories for digital audio multichannel signals.
The Dolby Digital system enables any audio
channel configuration, from a stereo sound (2
channels) up to the digital “surround” sound 5.1.

PCM
If the device connected to the DIGITAL AUDIO
OUT sockets does not support Dolby or DTS
signals, your player will deliver PCM (Pulse Code
Modulation) signals. In that case, neither Dolby
Digital, nor DTS must be ticked.
The linear PCM is a signal recording format used
for CDs. CDs are recorded in
44.1kHz /16bits. DVDs are recorded in 48kHz / 16
bits, or even up to 96kHz / 24 bits.
The Sound menu provides you with settings so you can adapt your player to the devices
connected. It also enables you to access specific functions.

amplifier with an integrated Dolby DTS decoder. If the DVD disc contains an audio format of higher
quality than 48kHz/16bit (maybe 96kHz/ 24bit), the
player has to convert into a format compatible with
DAT or MD.
