Using the Surround/DSP modes
Available Surround/DSP modes vary depending on the speaker settings and the incoming signals. See the table below.
• The numbers inside the parentheses following the incoming signal type indicate the number of the front channels and that of the
surround channels. For example, (3/2) indicates that the signals are encoded with three front signals (left/right/center) and two (stereo)
surround signals.
• For EX/ES/PLIIx setting, see page 24.
