Press repeatedly to switch between:
•STEREO – The audio is heard with your surround settings (such as channel level) and you can still use digital processing (such as the Midnight, Loudness, and Tone control functions).
•DIRECT – Bypass all effects and surround settings so that the audio remains as close to the source audio signal as possible.
Note
•If you switch on any signal processing features (for example, the Midnight listening mode or the tone controls) when DIRECT is selected, the receiver automatically switches to STEREO.
