surround sound effect directed to the
center of where the front left and right
speakers sound projection area converges.

surround sound effect to a wider area than

processed.
AUTO SURROUND – See Auto playback on
page 56.
ALC – Listening in Auto level control mode
(page 56).
DIRECT – Plays back sound from source
with the least modification next to PURE
DIRECT. With DIRECT, the only
modifications added to PURE DIRECT
playback are calibration of the sound field
by the MCACC system and the Phase
Control effect.
PURE DIRECT – Plays back unmodified
sound from source with only minimal
digital treatment. No sound is output from
the Speaker B in this mode.
Note
1 When using F.S.SURR WIDE, a better effect can be obtained if the Full Auto MCACC procedure under Advanced
MCACC is performed. For more on this, refer to Automatically setting up for surround sound (Auto MCACC) on
page 37.
