07Playing sources

Virtual Surround Back

The Virtual Surround Back effect simulates

6.1surround channel listening, giving the impression that there is a surround back speaker in your system when listening to a

5.1channel source.

Expanded

This mode is especially designed to give sound depth to stereo sources. The overall effect builds a dynamic and broad sound space, allowing two-channel (stereo) signals to imitate a five speaker sound. Use with Dolby Pro Logic for a stereo surround effect. You can also use with Dolby Digital sources for a wider stereo field than the Surround modes.

Phones Surround

This is very similar to the Virtual Surround mode, and is available when you’re listening to the headphones to create an overall surround sound effect.

Stereo

When you select STEREO (available in both the Surround and Advanced surround modes), you will hear the source through just the front left and right speakers. Dolby Digital and DTS multi-channel sources are downmixed to stereo.

The audio plays according to the surround setup settings and you can still use the tone control (SOUND MODE) functions.

TV Surround

You can use this mode to give surround sound to mono or stereo TV audio sources.

Virtual Surround

When you select this mode, you will hear a surround sound effect produced from the two front speakers only. When selected, you won’t hear any sound from the other speakers in your system.

5-Channel Stereo

This can be selected to give powerful multi- channel sound to a stereo source by giving equal power to all of the speakers in your setup. It is particularly well-suited to music sources with deep bass and a strong rhythmic feel.

Listening to multi-channel playback

Dolby Pro Logic, Dolby Digital and DTS signal processing is done automatically corresponding to the input signal.
