English Using Front Surround
The Front Surround modes are effective when you are
using the Front surround speaker setup as described on
page 7. The surround speakers should be placed on top
of the front speakers and oriented either towards the
walls, or straight ahead, depending on which mode you
are using (see below).
• Press ADVANCED to select a Front Surround mode.
Press repeatedly to select FRTMOVIE, FRTMUSIC or
EXTPOWER.
Turn each surround speaker so that the arrow at the
base is lined up with the
FRONT SURROUND arrow on
the front speaker. This is only necessary with the
FRTMOVIE or FRTMUSIC modes. With EXTPOWER
(Extra Power), line up the arrow with the
EXTRA
POWER arrow (the surround speakers should be in the
same direction as the front speakers.).
Using Advanced Surround
The Advanced Surround effects can be used with any
multichannel or stereo source for a variety of additional
