Sound Surround Enjoying

Understanding the Multi-Channel Surround Displays

Playback channel display

The display shows which channels are being played back and which speakers are being used. The letters (L, C, R, etc.) light to show the channels being played back. The boxes around the letters light to show which speakers are being used. The display varies depending on the number of speakers connected (“Speaker Setup and Playback Channel Display” column). This unit also displays the number of channels in the input signal (“Input Channel Display” column).

Although the table below shows almost all of the configurations available from multi channel surround signals, the ones marked “” are the most common.
