About the listening modes

As explained in Home theater sound setup on page 20 and Using the wireless speaker system on page 27, there are several setup options available. However, unless you have connected an extra pair of surround speakers, you should use the Standard (Listening in surround sound on page 30) and Advanced (Using the Advanced Surround effects on page 31) surround listening modes with your setup.

If you have connected an extra pair of surround speakers, the Front Surround modes are available with a 3-spot setup. See Using Front Surround on page 31 for more on this.

Make sure you have completed Using the Room Setup on page 20. For a more detailed surround sound setup, see Using the System Setup menu on page 50.

Note

•Certain features explained in this section may not be possible depending on the source (for example, 88.2 / 96 kHz sources), or a conflicting system setting. See Error Messages on page 76 for more on this.

Auto listening mode

The Auto listening mode is the simplest way to listen to any source as it was mastered: the output from the speakers mirrors the channels in the source material.
