MULTI CHANNEL AV RECEIVER

STR-DH750/STR-DH550

Auto Format Direct (A.F.D.)/2-channel sound mode

Auto Format Direct (A.F.D.) mode: This mode allows you to listen to higher-fidelity sound and select the decoding mode for listening to a 2-channel stereo or monaural sound as multi-channel sound.

2-channel sound mode: You can switch the output sound to 2-channel sound regardless of the recording formats of the software you are using, the playback device connected, or the sound field settings of the receiver.

A.F.D. Auto (A.F.D. AUTO):

Presets the sound as it was recorded/encoded without adding any surround effects.

However, for USA and Canada models, this receiver will generate a low-frequency signal for output to the subwoofer when there is no LFE signals.

Multi Stereo (MULTI ST.):

Outputs 2-channel left/right or monaural signals from all speakers. However, sound may not be output from certain speakers depending on the speaker settings.

2ch Stereo (2CH ST.):

The receiver outputs the sound from the front left/right speakers only. There is no sound from the subwoofer. Standard 2-channel stereo sources completely bypass the sound field processing and multi-channel surround formats are downmixed to 2-channels.

Analog Direct (A. DIRECT):

You can switch the audio of the selected input to 2-channel analog input. This function enables you to enjoy high-quality analog sources.

Only the volume and front speaker level can be adjusted when using this function.

Note

You cannot select [Analog Direct] while using the BD/DVD, GAME, or USB function. [Multi Stereo] does not work when multi-channel audio signals are being received.
