Whenever you select a program source, the sound field that was last applied is automatically spplied again. For example, if you listen to CD with STADIUM as the sound field, change to different program source, then return to CD, STADIUM will be applied again. In the case of the tuner, the sound fields for AM or FM band and for all the preset stations are memorized separately.

Some videos and laser discs, however, may be encoded with Dolby Surround sound even if it’s not indicated on the package.
