Setting
OFF	Set the “OFF” mode to perform 6.1-channel playback with conventional 5.1-channel sources or sources on which the
	identification signal described below is not recorded.
ON	This function only works with software on which a special identification signal is recorded. This software is scheduled to go on
	sale in the future.
	This is a function for automatically playing in the 6.1-channel mode using the surround back speakers if the software is recorded
	in 6.1 Source or DTS-ES or in the normal 5.1-channel mode without using the surround back speakers when the software is not
	recorded in 6.1 Source or DTS-ES.
5 ch	Playback is conducted without using the surround back speaker.
7 ch	Playback is conducted using the surround back speaker. The same signals as those of the surround channels are output from the
	surround back channel.

NOTES:

•The “DTS-ES/6.1 Source Auto” setting screen is displayed when the surround back speaker is set to “Large” or “Small” at “Speaker Configuration”.

•The surround back speakers can also be turned on and off using the “6.1/7.1 Surround” surround parameter. (See page 51.) Select the setting according to the program source to be played.

Setting the delay time

•Input the distance between the listening position and the different speakers to set the delay time for the surround mode.

•The delay time can be set separately for surround speakers A and B.

Preparations:

Measure the distances between the listening position and the speakers (L1 to L5 on the diagram at the right).

L1: Distance between center speaker and listening position

L2: Distance between front speakers and listening position

L3: Distance between surround speakers and listening position

L4: Distance between surround back speakers and listening position

L5: Distance between subwoofer and listening position
