Note
• Depending on the audio format, if you select [Direct] and play a 5.1ch source when surround speakers and
two surround back speakers are connected, the same audio as that from surround speakers will be output
from surround back speakers, similar to that of a 7.1ch surround system. The sound level of surround and
surround back speakers are adjusted automatically for optimum balance.
• Dolby Atmos is decoded as Dolby TrueHD or Dolby Digital Plus when a sound field other than [Multi Stereo],
[A.F.D.], [A.F.D. Movie] or [Dolby Mode] is selected.
