Hi,
Pretty much get this amp now but not sure on a few settings so advice please.
I mostly put things on auto but its still niggling me even though it sounds great.
Have a Sony 370 blu ray going through it and Sky HD.
HDMI SETTINGS
Video direct ? On or off ? It sets the HDMI settings to output the video signal of HDMI input directly.
H.A.T.S ? On or off ? Dont understand ? Something to do with signal jitter ? Can anyone explain in English please ?
AUDIO
Decode Priority - PCM or auto ? Set to auto and all seems ok.
Digital Legato Linear ? Set to auto ? Again in English please ?
SURROUND
Enhanced Surround Mode ? Options are Pro Logic 2, Neo:6 Cinema, Neo:6 Music or Neural THX ? I use 5.1 surround ( but dont have a subwoofer ) - what setting please ?
SPEAKER
D.Range Comp ? OFF, AUTO, STD or MAX - best setting please and an explaination in English please ?
And finally - this bit confuses me the most ?
On Speaker setting its set according to the picture on GUI to 3/2ch which seems to show my set up. This is front l / r speakers, centre speaker and rear ? l / r ( although on the diagram they seem to be at the side of the sofa / listening position ( which are where my rears are due to my sofa being up against a wall due to space in my living room ). I have no sub as yet - but this bit confuses me as surely my set up is 5.0 ( no sub ) as opposed to 3/2ch ?
I have a small living room but my sofa is in the ideal facing tv / amp listening position.
Any Sony av amp owners out there to put my mind at rest please or just you usual clever chaps ?
Apologies if this is all a bit basic but help me out peeps please ?
