Enjoying Surround Sound

Using only the front speakers and sub woofer

— 2CH STEREO

In this mode, the receiver outputs the sound from the front left/right speakers and sub woofer only.

When multi channel surround formats are input, the signals are downmixed to 2 channel with bass frequencies being output from the sub woofer.

When standard 2 channel stereo sources are input, the receiver’s bass redirection circuitry will be activated. The front channel bass frequencies will be output from the sub woofer.

Press SOUND FIELD + or SOUND FIELD – repeatedly to select “2CH ST.”.

The receiver switches to the 2CH STEREO mode.

FORMAT DIRECT)

In this mode, the receiver automatically detects the type of audio signal being input (Dolby Digital, DTS, standard 2 channel stereo, etc.) and performs the proper decoding if necessary. This mode presents the sound as it was recorded/ encoded, without adding any surround effects. However, if there are no low frequency signals (Dolby Digital LFE, etc.) it will generate a low frequency signal for output to the sub woofer.

Press A.F.D.
