Surround Back Channel Modes
Surround Back Channel Mode
The SB CH MODE makes available surround back channels through your surround back speakers. You must have chosen NORMAL SYSTEM in the SURRBACK SYSTEM setting (see page 39) and have SURROUND and SURROUND BACK speakers set to something other than NO (see page 41) to use this feature. To accomplish the same settings, you could have had the AUTO SURROUND SETUP automatically set the SURROUND and the SURROUND BACK speakers on (see page 13).
