To cancel the surround mode for stereo operation

• Depending on the signal format which is being input, either the stereo mode or the 2CH downmix mode is selected.

• To cancel either the stereo mode or the 2CH downmix mode, select the surround mode with using the MULTI CONTROL knob on the front panel or the SURROUND MODE UP/DOWN ( >/< ) buttons on the remote control.

2CH downmix mode

This mode allows the multi-channel signals encoded in DTS or Dolby Digital format to be mixed down into 2 front channels and to be reproduced through only two front speakers or through headphones.

When the SPEAKER button is set to off to listen with headphones, if the STEREO button is pressed while playing the multi-channel digital signals from DTS or Dolby Digital sources, it will enter the 2CH downmix mode automatically.

To cancel the 2CH downmix mode, select the desired Dolby Headphone mode with using the MULTI CONTROL knob on the front panel or the SURROUND MODE UP/DOWN ( >/< ) buttons on the remote control.

Listening in a Dolby Headphone mode

The Dolby Headphone function simulates 5.1 channel surround sound, which allows you to enjoy 5.1 channel surround sound through 2 channel headphones, just like listening from 5.1 channel speakers.

Notes :

Only when the SPEAKER button is set to off, the Dolby Headphone mode can be selected.

When playing the 96 kHz PCM(2 channel) digital signals, only the stereo mode can be selected.

While listening with headphones, select the desired Dolby Headphone mode.

• Each time theMULTI CONTROL knob is rotated or the SURROUND MODE UP/DOWN ( >/< ) buttons are pressed, the mode changes as follows :
