Feel free to choose a sound field program based on your listening preference, and not purely on the name of the program itself.

Notes

When you select an input source, this unit automatically selects the last sound field program used with that source.

Sound field programs cannot be selected when MULTI CH INPUT is selected.

Sampling frequencies higher than 48 kHz (except for DTS 96/ 24 signals) will be sampled down to 48 kHz, then sound field programs will be applied.

Enjoying multi-channel software

If you connected a surround back speaker, use this feature to enjoy 6.1-channel playback for multi-channel sources using the Dolby Pro Logic IIx, Dolby Digital EX or DTS-ES decoders.

Press AMP on the remote control to select the AMP mode, then press EXTD SUR. to switch between 5.1 and 6.1-channel playback.
