You can take advantage of surround sound
simply by selecting one of system’s pre-
programmed sound fields. They bring the
exciting and powerful sound of movie theaters
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.
Tip
When you want to output the TV sound or stereo sound
of a 2 channel source from the 6 speakers of the system,
select a sound field other than “AUTO FORMAT
DIRECT AUTO” or “2 CHANNEL STEREO”.
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.
Press AUTO FORMAT DIRECT repeatedly
until “A.F.D. AUTO” appears in the front
panel display.
