[PL II MOVIE] mode: The Movie mode is for use with stereo television shows
and all programs encoded in Dolby Surround. The result is enhanced sound
field directionality that approaches the quality of discrete 5.1-channel sound.
[PL II MUSIC] mode: The Music mode is for use with any stereo music
recordings.
[PL II MATRIX] mode: The Matrix mode is the same as the Music mode
except that the directional enhancement logic is turned off. It may be used to
enhance mono signals by making them seem “larger.” The Matrix mode may
also find use in auto systems, where the fluctuations from poor FM stereo
reception can otherwise cause disturbing surround signals from a logic
decoder. The ultimate “cure” for poor FM stereo reception may be simply to
force the audio to mono.
[ON STAGE] mode: Simulates a large Concert hall
[VIRTUAL] mode: 
Realtime 3D positioned sound rendering technology
with stereo sources, optimized for stereo speakers. Listeners may
experience amazing virtual surround effects with their own multimedia
players.
5.1Ch source
[VIRTUAL] mode: 
The Multichannel sound changes the sound in 5.1 ch
into a virtual one in the 10.1 ch so that it provides such a feeling that
you listen to the sound simultaneously from the right and left speakers
and center speaker.
Set a pre-programmed sound fieldThis system has a number of pre-set surround sound fields. Select the one
which best suits the programme you are watching by pressing EQ repeatedly to
cycle through the options: NORMAL, NATURAL, AUTO EQ, POP, CLASSIC,
ROCK, JAZZ
[AUTO EQ]: AUTO EQ operates only in the MP3/ WMA files which include
the information. (ID3 Tag is operated ver.1 only.) WMA file operates to Normal
EQ regardless of Tag information.
