Page 31

Notes

Some 6.1-channel compatible discs do not have a signal (flag) which this unit can automatically detect. When playing these kinds of discs with 6.1-channel, select a decoder manually (PLIIx Music, EX/ES or EX).

6.1-channel playback is not possible even if EXTD SUR. is pressed in the following cases:

– When “SUR. LR” (see page 50) or “SUR. B” (see page 50) is set to NONE.

– When the source connected to the MULTI CH INPUT jack is being played.

– When the source being played does not contain surround left and right channel signals.

– When a Dolby Digital KARAOKE source is being played.

– When “2ch Stereo” or “Direct Stereo” is selected.

When the power of this unit is turned off, this setting will be reset to AUTO.

The Pro Logic IIx decoder is not available when “SUR. B” is set to NONE (see page 50).
