About Relations between Speaker Layout and Surround Modes
Available Surround modes will vary depending on how many speakers are used with this receiver.
Make sure that you have set the speaker information correctly (see pages 12 to 14).
•If only front speakers are connected, you cannot use Surround modes.
•If rear speakers are not connected, you cannot use DAP modes and All Channel Stereo.
