Always turn down the volume before connecting your headphones.

The speakers are turned off while the headphones plug is inserted in the PHONES jack. (Zone 2 speakers are not turned off.)

When you connect a pair of headphones, the listening mode is set to Stereo, unless it’s already set to Stereo, Mono, Direct, or Pure Audio (not American TX-SR602). When you disconnect the headphones, the previous listening mode is resumed.

Only the Stereo, Direct, Pure Audio (not American TX-SR602), and Mono listening modes can be used with headphones. (The listening modes available also depends on the currently selected input source.)

When the multichannel input is used, only the front left and right audio can be heard in the headphones. On the TX-SR702E, when the Stereo or Mono listen- ing mode is selected, audio is downmixed for a good sound.
