Preparation

Notes:

–Multichannel output and downmixed stereo output are not available simultaneously.

–When multichannel is selected as analog output. The MIXED 2CH (Left/Right) will deliver the Center channel data and not the downmixed Left/Right. In some cases, the sound volume will be reduced.

Dolby Surround-compatible: Select this setting when using an equipment with a Dolby Surround Pro Logic decoder. In this setting, the 5.1 audio channels (Dolby Digital, MPEG-2, DTS) are downmixed to a Dolby Surround-compatible 2- channel output.

3D-Sound: In a setup without rear speakers (analog stereo output), 3D Sound remixes the six channels of digital surround into a two-speaker output while retaining all of the original audio information. The result is the listening sensation of being surrounded by multiple speakers.

During DVD or Video-CD playback, these values can be selected directly with SOUND MODE.
