Selecting a Sound Field

Enjoying Dolby Digital and DTS sound

(AUTO FORMAT DIRECT)

The Auto Format Direct (A.F.D.) mode allows you to listen to higher fidelity sound.

This mode presents the sound as it was recorded/encoded without adding any surround effects. However, this receiver will generate a low frequency signal for output to the sub woofer when there is no LFE signals.
