Types of 2CH mode

x2ch Stereo

The receiver outputs the sound from the front left/right speakers only. There is no sound from the sub woofer.

Standard 2 channel stereo sources completely bypass the sound field processing and multi- channel surround formats are downmixed to 2 channel.

Note

No sound is output from the sub woofer in the 2ch Stereo mode. To listen to 2 channel stereo sources using the front left/right speakers and a sub woofer, select “A.F.D. Auto.”

This receiver will generate a low frequency signal for output to the sub woofer when there is no L.F.E. signal, which is a low-pass sound effect output from a sub woofer to a 2 channel signal.

x2ch Analog Direct

You can switch the audio of the selected input to 2 channel analog input. This function
