Enjoying Surround Sound When headphones are connected You can only select the following sound fields if the headphones are connected to the receiver. x HP 2CH (Headphones 2CH) This mode is selected automatically if you use headphones (except Analog Direct). Standard 2 channel stereo sources completely bypass the sound field processing and multi channel surround formats are downmixed to 2 channels except LFE signals. x HP DIR (Headphones Direct) This mode is selected automatically if you use headphones and when "A. DIRECT" is selected. Outputs the analog signals without processing by the equalizer, sound field, etc. If you connect a subwoofer This receiver will generate a low frequency signal for output to the subwoofer when there is no LFE signal, which is a low-pass sound effect output from a subwoofer to a 2 channel signal. However, the low frequency signal is not generated for "NEO6 CIN" or "NEO6 MUS" when all speakers are set to "LARGE". In order to take full advantage of the Dolby Digital bass redirection circuitry, we recommend setting the subwoofer's cut off frequency as high as possible. Notes on sound fields • Depends on the speaker pattern settings, some sound fields may not be available. • The sound fields for music and movie do not work in the following cases. - DTS-HD Master Audio, DTS-HD High Resolution Audio or Dolby TrueHD with sampling frequency of more than 48 kHz are being received. - "A. DIRECT" is selected. • "PLII MV", "PLIIX MV", "PLII MS", "PLIIX MS", "PLIIZ", "NEO6 CIN" and "NEO6 MUS" also do not work when the speaker pattern is set to 2/0 or 2/0.1. • You cannot select "PLIIX" and "PLIIZ" at the same time. - "PLIIX" is available only when the speaker pattern is set to a setting with surround back speaker(s). - "PLIIZ" is available only when the speaker pattern is set to a setting with front high speakers. • When one of the sound fields for music is selected, no sound is output from the subwoofer if all the speakers are set to "LARGE" in the SPEAKER menu. However, the sound will be output from the subwoofer if - the digital input signal contains LFE signals. - the front or surround speakers are set to "SMALL". - "MULTI ST.", "PLII MV", "PLII MS", "PLIIX MV", "PLIIX MS", "HD-D.C.S." or "P. AUDIO" is selected. To turn off the surround effect for movie/music Press SOUND FIELD +/- repeatedly to select "2CH ST." or "A.F.D. AUTO". You can also repeatedly press 2CH/A.DIRECT or press A.F.D on the receiver to select "2CH ST." or "A.F.D. AUTO" respectively. 45GB

Enjoying Surround Sound
You can only select the following sound fields
if the headphones are connected to the
receiver.
x
HP 2CH (Headphones 2CH)
This mode is selected automatically if you use
headphones (except Analog Direct). Standard
2 channel stereo sources completely bypass
the sound field processing and multi channel
surround formats are downmixed to 2
channels except LFE signals.
x
HP DIR (Headphones Direct)
This mode is selected automatically if you use
headphones and when “A. DIRECT” is
selected.
Outputs the analog signals without processing
by the equalizer, sound field, etc.
If you connect a subwoofer
This receiver will generate a low frequency
signal for output to the subwoofer when there
is no LFE signal, which is a low-pass sound
effect output from a subwoofer to a 2 channel
signal. However, the low frequency signal is
not generated for “NEO6 CIN” or “NEO6
MUS” when all speakers are set to “LARGE”.
In order to take full advantage of the Dolby
Digital bass redirection circuitry, we
recommend setting the subwoofer’s cut off
frequency as high as possible.
