Notes

When you select the component connected to the MULTI CH INPUT jacks as the input source (see page 31), this unit automatically turns off the digital sound field processor, and you cannot select sound field programs.

This unit does not redirect signals input at the MULTI CH INPUT jacks to accommodate for missing speakers. We recommend that you connect a 5.1-channel speaker system before using this feature.
