•Certain features explained in this section will not be possible depending on the source (for example, PCM 88.2 kHz / 96 kHz, DTS 96 kHz (24 bit) or WMA9 Pro sources).
Auto playback
The simplest, most direct listening option is the Auto Surround feature. With this, the receiver automatically detects what kind of source you’re playing and selects multichannel or
stereo playback as necessary.1
The following modes provide basic surround sound for stereo and multichannel sources.
AUTO SURR | STEREO/ | STANDARD ADV.SURR |
