Enjoying Surround Sound You can take advantage of surround sound simply by selecting one of the system's preprogrammed sound fields. They bring the exciting and powerful sound of movie theatres into your home. To select sound field, press AUTO FORMAT DIRECT or MODE on the remote repeatedly until the sound field you want appears in the front panel display. Automatic decoding of the audio input signal (AUTO FORMAT DIRECT AUTO) The auto decoding function automatically detects the type of audio signal being input (Dolby Digital, DTS, or standard 2 channel stereo) and performs the proper decoding if necessary. This mode presents the sound as it was recorded/encoded, without adding any effects (e.g. reverberation). However, if there are no low frequency signals (Dolby Digital LFE, etc.), it will generate a low frequency signal for output to the subwoofer. Using only the front speakers and subwoofer (2 CHANNEL STEREO) This mode outputs the sound from the front left and right speakers and subwoofer. Standard two channel (stereo) sources completely bypass the sound field processing. Multi channel surround formats are downmixed to two channels. This allows you to play any source using only the front left and right speakers and subwoofer. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 0 MODE Press MODE on the remote repeatedly until "2CH ST" appears in the front panel display.
