•Frt. Movie – The Front Surround Movie mode emphasizes directionality, giving you a realistic movie theater-type sound.

•Frt. Music – The Front Surround Music mode provides greater breadth and depth to music sources, enveloping you with a concert hall-type sound.

•ExtraPower – The Extra Power mode gives additional energy and depth to a stereo source by using the surround speakers in addition to the front speakers.

If you have selected Frt. Movie or Frt. Music, you will achieve best results by turning each surround speaker about 60º towards the closest wall. With ExtraPower, orient the surround speakers in the same direction as the front speakers (towards the listening position).
