favorite audio listening mode continued 
Setting a favorite listening mode here will not prevent the system from automatically adjusting the listening mode 
in response to bitstream information, nor will it prevent the user form changing modes during normal operation. It 
is merely the mode that is chosen when that input is initially selected and no additional bitstream information is 
available. You can use the favorite Mode/Speakers along with the systems intelligence to arrive at your optimum 
listening modes while seldom needing to manually set modes. For example, you use a DVD player to play music 
CDs and DVD movies. You may prefer to listen to music CDs in their original 2-channel stereo, while you prefer 
Dolby Digital and DTS DVDs in 6-channel (“MATRIX”) mode. First select Favorite mode surround and favorite 
speakers 6. Then select favorite mode Stereo and favorite speakers 2. Your system will now automatically 
playback PCM CDs in two channel stereo and Dolby Digital or DTS DVDs in Surround 6. And if you temporarily 
want a different mode, you can still change it during normal system operation
