5.1 Decoder Module
The 5.1 Decoder module forms
the core of the M51’s audio
processing with all functions,
which the puristic Stereo and
the inspired home cinema
listener expects. It monitors and
controls all the audio signals; it
generates all the home cinema
signals and sends them on to
the outputs.
You can use all normal audio
formats such as Dolby
Surround, Dolby Pro Logic II,
Dolby Digital, DTS or MPEG
with the 5.1 Decoder Module,
naturally in high resolution 24
bit as well.
These signals are also made
available to external devices
through 6 cinch sockets.
Additionally, using the Lipsync
function, a time delay of up to
170 ms can be defined for the
audio signal.
The 5.1 Decoder Module
handles the conversion of the
symmetrical analogue signals in
ultra-linear stereo operation.
From here, it also goes through
gold-coated silver contact relays
to the output stages.
A further task, which the
5.1 Decoder Module handles is
the connection of three digital
sources. In this case, you can
either feed the digital signals in
using an optical fibre or coax
cable.
L Important
The 5.1 Decoder module plays
a very significant role for the
whole system. Since it
represents the Audio Control
Centre, the system will not
operate without the decoder
module.
