Important
• The procedure for setting the receiver operation
mode differs for the remote controls included with
the SC-37 and SC-35. For the SC-37’s remote control,
set the remote control operation selector switch to
RECEIVER. For the SC-35’s remote control, press the
button. When “set the remote control to
the receiver operation mode” is indicated in these
instructions, use the respective procedure described
above.
• The listening modes and many features described in
this section may not be available depending on the
current source, settings and status of the receiver.
Auto playback
There are many ways to listen back to sources using this
receiver, but the simplest, most direct listening option is
the Auto Surround feature. The receiver automatically
detects what kind of source you’re playing and selects
multichannel or stereo playback as necessary.
1 Set the remote control to the receiver operation
mode.
2 While listening to a source, press AUTO/ALC/
DIRECT (AUTO SURR/ALC/STREAM DIRECT) for auto
playback of a source.
AUTO SURROUND shows briefly in the display before
showing the decoding or playback format. Check the
digital format indicators in the front panel display to see
how the source is being processed.
• If the source is Dolby Digital, DTS, or Dolby Surround
encoded, the proper decoding format will
automatically be selected and shows in the display.
• When listening to the FM radio, the Neural Surround
feature is selected automatically (see Using Neural
Surround on page 52 for more on this).
• When listening to the ADAPTER PORT input, the
SOUND RETRIEVER AIR feature is selected
automatically (see Listening in stereo on page 61 for
more on this).
• When listening to XM Radio, the XM HD Surround
feature is selected automatically (see Using XM HD
Surround on page 54 for more on this).
ALC – In the Auto level control (ALC) mode, this receiver
equalizes playback sound levels.
OPTIMUM SURR (SC-37 only) – In the Optimum
Surround mode, this receiver automatically optimizes
sound balance in each scene based on actually set
volume. The sound balancer controls three major theater
sound elements dialogue, bass and surround with
original algorithm.
Tip
• When ALC is selected, the effect level can be
adjusted using the EFFECT parameter in Setting the
Audio options on page 76.
Listening in surround sound
Using this receiver, you can listen to any source in
surround sound. However, the options available will
depend on your speaker setup and the type of source
you’re listening to.
Standard surround sound
The following modes provide basic surround sound for
stereo and multichannel sources.
1 Set the remote control to the receiver operation
mode.
2 While listening to a source, press STANDARD
(STANDARD SURROUND).
If necessary, press repeatedly to select a listening mode.
• If the source is Dolby Digital, DTS, or Dolby Surround
encoded, the proper decoding format will
automatically be selected and shows in the display.

sound).

DIMENSION and PANORAMA. See Setting the Audio options on page 76 to adjust them.
