Listening in stereo
When you select STEREO you will hear the
source through just the front left and right
speakers (and possibly your subwoofer
depending on your speaker settings). Dolby
Digital and DTS multichannel sources are
downmixed to stereo.
In the Auto level control stereo mode (A.L.C.),
this unit equalizes playback sound levels if
each sound level varies with the music source
recorded in a portable audio player.
• While listening to a source, press
STEREO/A.L.C. for stereo playback.
Press repeatedly to switch between:
• STEREO – The audio is heard with your
surround settings and you can still use the
Midnight, Loudness, and Tone functions.
• A.L.C. – Listening in Auto level control
stereo mode.
• F.S.S.FOCUS – See Using Front Stage
Surround Advance on page 32 for more on
this.
• F.S.S. WIDE – See Using Front Stage
Surround Advance on page 32 for more on
this.
Note
1 • If you press ADV SURR with the headphones connected, PHONESUR. will automatically be selected.
• When an Advanced Surround listening mode is selected, the effect level can be adjusted using the EFFECT parameter in
Setting the AV options on page 34.
