5.1mc 2-CHAN
This mode downmixes 5.1-channel input signals into 2-channel
Logic 7-encoded output signals. It sends these signals to the front
speakers and the subwoofer. It is recommended for recording
purposes, particularly for recording from a DVD-A or multi-channel
SACD player to a CD-R or another 2-channel recording format.

5.1mc BYPASS
• Designed for playback of 5.1-channel sources, such as DVD-A or
SACD players.
• Sends the 5.1-channel audio input connector directly to the
Main Zone volume control and audio output connectors as
shown on page 2-6 and page 3-64. These signals receive no
internal processing.

channel signals are sent in parallel to the side and rear speakers.
To configure a 5-channel speaker setup, set the OUTPUT LEVELS

associated surround speakers.

whenever the 5.1-channel audio input connector is assigned to
the selected input. The 5.1mc BYPASS listening mode is only
available for 5.1-channel sources.
• Pressing the remote control SHIFT then 2CH buttons toggles
the MAIN ADV menu ANALOG BYPASS parameter between ON
