“REAR FILL” function

Depending on the input signals, the sound may only be output from the front speakers. In this case, the “REAR FILL” function can be used to output signals from the rear speakers as well.

If REAR FILL is set, 192kHz, 96kHz, etc., contents are down sampled to 48kHz.

Avoid stopping, pausing, switching the disc, cueing, fast-forwarding or switching the audio channel of this unit while making this adjustment. The setting is canceled if the Decode mode is switched.
