*2 When the Zone 2 speakers are activated, the 3D-PHONIC processing is applied to reproduce Dolby Digital or DTS software (the 3D-PHONIC indicator also lights up).

*3 When using PLIIx Movie to reproduce Dolby Digital or DTS software, this receiver applies Dolby Digital EX (DOLBY D EX) or DTS plus Dolby Digital EX (DTS + DD EX) processing (6.1-channel reproduction) to the software.

*4 Virtual 6.1-channel surround

If you have connected (and activated) the surround speakers, you can use Virtual 6.1-channel surround when playing back Dolby Digital EX, Dolby Digital (3/2 or 2/2) or DTS-ES software without connecting the surround back speakers. This surround reallocates the surround back channel to the surround speakers so that you can still feel the great surround effect from behind. The VIRTUAL SB (Surround Back) indicator lights up on the display.

3D Headphone mode—3D H PHONE

If you press SURROUND when the front speakers 1 and 2 are both deactivated, 3D Headphone mode (3D H PHONE) is activated without respect to the type of software played back.

“3D H PHONE” appears and the DSP and HEADPHONE indicators also light up on the display.
