Using Stream Direct
Use the Stream Direct modes when you want
to hear the truest possible reproduction of a
source. All unnecessary signal processing is
bypassed, and you’re left with the pure analog
or digital sound source.
• While listening to a source, press
, then press AUTO/ALC/DIRECT to
select the mode you want. 2
Check the digital format indicators in the front
panel display to see how the source is being
processed.
• AUTO SURROUND – See Auto playback on
page 57.
• ALC – Listening in Auto level control mode
(page 57).
• DIRECT – Plays back sound from the
source with the least modification next to
PURE DIRECT. With DIRECT, the only
modifications added to
PURE DIRECT
playback are calibration of the sound field
by the MCACC system and the Phase
Control effect.
• PURE DIRECT – Plays back unmodified
sound from source with only minimal
digital treatment. No sound is output from
the Speaker B in this mode.
Tip
• When an ALC mode is selected, the effect
level can be adjusted using the EFFECT
parameter in Setting the Audio options on
page 68.
Note
1 When using F.S.SURR WIDE, a better effect can be obtained if the Full Auto MCACC procedure under Advanced
MCACC is performed. For more on this, refer to Automatically conducting optimum sound tuning (Auto MCACC) on
page 39.
