PLIIz (PLIIz Height)
Performs Dolby Pro Logic IIz mode decoding. This setting can expand a source 
sound from a 5.1 channel to a 7.1 channel to which a vertical equipment is 
applied, and gives a dimension of presence and depth.
NEO6 MUS (Neo:6 Music)
Performs DTS Neo:6 Music mode decoding. A source recorded in 2 channel 
format is decoded into 7 channels. This setting is ideal for normal stereo 
sources such as CDs.

This mode is selected automatically if you use headphones (except

field processing and multi channel surround formats are downmixed to 
2 channels except LFE signals.
HP DIRECT (HP (Direct))
This mode is selected automatically if you use headphones when “A. DIRECT” 
is selected. Outputs the analog signals without processing by the equalizer, 
sound field, etc.
