Enjoying TV or VCR Sound with Front Surround Sound

You can enjoy TV or VCR sound with the front surround sound of this system.

For details, see “Step 3: TV Hookup” (page 20) and “Step 4: Other Component Hookup” (page 26).

1 Press FUNCTION repeatedly until “TV,” “VIDEO1(2),” or “SAT1(2)” (depending on what you set in the AMP MENU, see page 75) appears in the front panel display.

2 Press SOUND FIELD repeatedly until the sound field you want appears in the front panel display.

When you use a digital connection (COAXIAL or OPTICAL) and the selected sound field is AUTO, you can enjoy multi- channel signals with the front surround sound (default setting is FOCUS SURROUND). Even when you use a digital connection and the selected sound field is AUTO (FOCUS SURROUND), if the system receives 2-channel signal, the system will still only output 2-channel sound.

When you use an analogue connection and the selected sound field is AUTO, the system outputs 2-channel stereo signals.
