Speaker Icons
The receiver shows you the speakers’ types and set-
tings on the display with the following icons:
Displaying Program Formats
When a digital source is playing, the receiver will
automatically switch to the proper surround mode
and indicates on the speaker icons on the right-hand
side of the display. (See diagram)
It is important to note, however, that not all Dolby
Digital sources are encoded with the full complement
of five channels plus LFE*. Speaker icons show how
many and which speaker you have enabled (See “Fine
Setting of the Speakers”) and the letters inside the
speaker icons show which channel is present in the
source information. For example, the diagram shown
means you have all the five speakers and subwoofer
enabled and the digital sources you played have five
channels plus LFE complemented.
* LFE stands for Low Frequency Effect. The indication
“LFE” appears if the digital source contains LFE infor-
mation. In this case, the bass signal will be delivered
to the subwoofer, offering more dynamic deep bass
sound effects. If the letter is flashing, the signal is
either too weak or just gone.
