Enjoying Surround Sound
Using only the front
speakers
(2CH STEREO)
In this mode, the receiver outputs the sound
from the front L/R speakers only. There is no
sound from the sub woofer.
Standard 2 channel stereo sources completely
bypass the sound field processing and multi
channel surround formats are downmixed to 2
channel.
1
Press SOUND FIELD.
The sound field list appears.
2
Move the easy scroll key to
select “2CH STEREO,” then
press the key to enter the
selection.
You can also use 2CH on the receiver.
Note
No sound is output from the sub woofer in the 2CH
STEREO mode. To listen to 2 channel stereo sources
using the front L/R speakers and a sub woofer, select
“A.F.D. AUTO” and set “A.F.D. 2CH SW” on the
SURR SET UP menu to “CREATE” (page 99).
This receiver will generate a low frequency signal
for output to the sub woofer when there is no L.F.E.
signal, which is a low-pass sound effect output from
a sub woofer to a 2 channel signal.
Detecting the type of
audio signal
automatically
(AUTO FORMAT DIRECT)
The Auto Format Direct (A.F.D.) mode allows
you to listen to higher fidelity sound and select
the decoding mode for listening to a 2 channel
stereo sound as multi channel sound.
In this mode, the receiver automatically
detects the type of audio signal being input
(Dolby Digital, DTS, standard 2 channel
stereo, etc.) and performs the proper decoding,
if necessary.
This mode presents the sound as it was
recorded/encoded, without adding any
surround effects.
We usually recommend AUTO, however
sometimes it may be better to use SURR
BACK DECODING (page 95) to match the
input stream to the mode you prefer.
