Expanded
This mode is especially designed to give
sound depth to stereo sources. The overall
effect builds a dynamic and broad sound
space, allowing two-channel (stereo) signals
to imitate a five speaker sound. Use with
Dolby Pro Logic for a stereo surround effect.
You can also use with Dolby Digital sources
for a wider stereo field than the Surround
modes.
TV Surround
You can use this mode to give surround
sound to mono or stereo TV audio sources.
Virtual Surround
When you select this mode, you will hear a
surround sound effect produced from the
two front speakers only. When selected, you
won’t hear any sound from the other
speakers in your system.
5-Channel Stereo
This can be selected to give powerful multi-
speaker sound to a stereo source with equal
power delivered to all the speakers. It is
especially suited to music sources with deep
bass and a strong rhythmic feel.
Phones Surround
This is very similar to the Virtual Surround
mode, and is available when you’re listening
through headphones to create an overall
surround sound effect.
Stereo
When you select Stereo (available in the
Surround mode only), you will hear the
source through just the front left and right
speakers. Dolby Digital and DTS multi-
channel sources are downmixed to stereo.
Listening in Auto mode
In Auto mode, stereo sources are played in
stereo (through the front left/right speakers),
and surround sound sources (Dolby Digital,
DTS and Dolby Surround) are played in
surround sound.
AUTO
1 Select the source you want to play-
back.
2 Press AUTO.
Using the Surround modes
The Surround modes available depend on
whether the source you’re listening to is
stereo or surround.
