Listening to your system 05 Tip • When an Advanced Surround listening mode is selected (except ADV. VIR. SURR.), the effect level can be adjusted using the EFFECT parameter in Setting the AV options on page 66. Listening in stereo When you select STEREO, you will hear the source through just the front left and right speakers (and possibly your subwoofer depending on your speaker settings).

You will hear sources according to the number of channels in the signal. • PURE DIRECT - Analog and PCM sources are heard without any digital processing.1 No sound is output from the Second Zone in this mode. Selecting MCACC presets • Default setting: MEMORY 1 If you have calibrated your system for different listening positions2, you can switch between settings to suit the kind of source you're listening to and where you're sitting (for example, watching movies from a sofa, or playing a video game close to the TV).

Press repeatedly to select one of the six MCACC presets3 or to switch calibration off. See Data Management on page 42 to check and manage your current settings. Note 1 There are cases where a brief noise is heard before playback of sources other than PCM. Please select AUTO SURROUND or DIRECT if this is a problem. 2 Different presets might also have separate calibration settings for the same listening position, depending on how you're using your system. These presets can be set in Automatically setting up for surround sound (MCACC) on page 7 or Automatic MCACC (Expert) on page 34, either of which you should have already completed. 3 You can't use these settings when MULTI CH IN is switched on, and they has no effect when headphones are connected. 29 En
