Using the surround back channel
(Extended mode)
• Default setting: Extended ON
You can have the receiver automatically use 6.1 or 7.1
decoding for 6.1 encoded sources (for example, Dolby
Digital EX or DTS-ES), or you can choose to always use
6.1 or 7.1 decoding (for example, with 5.1 encoded
material). With 5.1 encoded sources, a surround back
channel will be generated, but the material may sound
better in the 5.1 format for which it was originally
encoded (in which case, you can simply switch the
Extended mode off).
The table below indicates when you will hear the
surround back channel when playing various kinds of
sources. (
ì =Sound plays through surround back
speaker(s))
• Press EXTENDED MODE (front panel) repeatedly
to cycle the surround back channel options.
Each press cycles through the options as follows:
• Extended ON – 6.1 or 7.1 decoding is always used
(for example, a surround back channel will be
generated for 5.1 encoded material)
• Extended AUTO – Automatically switches to 6.1 or
7.1 decoding for 6.1 encoded sources (for example,
Dolby Digital EX or DTS-ES)
• Extended OFF – Maximum 5.1 playback
Note
• You must have surround back speakers connected
(and set to LARGE or SMALL in the Speaker Setting on
page 46) and the Surround back speaker setting on
page 40 must be set to Normal (SB) to hear the
surround back channel.
• You can’t use the surround back channel with
headphones, the STEREO / DIRECT mode.
• You can’t hear the surround back channel with DTS
96kHz/24 bit or PCM 96/88.2kHz sources. PHONES
