MODE BUTTONS

Use the front panel and remote control Mode buttons to audition listening modes with the current Main Zone input source. Press the Mode + or – button to scroll up or down through the available listening modes for the current Main Zone input source. For example, if a 2-channel source is present in the Main Zone, the Mode buttons can be used to audition 2-channel listening modes.

Scrolling occurs in the order shown on the MODE ADJUST menu. The selected listening mode appears in the bottom-left corner of the Main Zone two-line status. The selected listening mode is automatically activated when scrolling stops.

The remote control mode family selection buttons select a listening mode within the corresponding mode family. Pressing a mode family selection button activates the most appropriate listening mode for the current Main Zone input source. For example, pressing the L7 button while a 2-channel source is present in the Main Zone activates the L7 FILM listening mode.
