as if the material was originally mono and has been
conveyed on a two-channel carrier. •

If Party? is set to No, the combined or selected signal
is played only through the centre speaker, or the left
and right speakers if there is no centre, to centrally

played through any speakers that are not supplemented
by a subwoofer, and this may damage small speakers
