DVD Audio/MULTI CHANNEL IN Playback
There are two types of MULTI CH IN modes: DIRECT and ADJUST. In the latter you can add sound features and
in the former these are fixed. To select these two settings (as well as OFF) follow the procedure below.
• The default setting is DIRECT.
• You can’t select listening modes for MULTI CH IN. Selecting a listening mode cancels the MULTI
CH IN.
• In DIRECT mode, if the center speaker is set to “NO” the signal for that channel is divided between
the front speakers. If any other speakers are set to “NO” the signal for that (those) channel(s)
won’t get output at all.
• If the amplifier is in DIRECT mode, and you set sound features (p.53-55) on, the mode will change
to ADJUST automatically.

Press MULTI CH IN button on the
remote control’s AMP MAIN screen.
Use the button to cycle through the
different multi channel in modes.
DIRECT:
This is a true playback of the signal from the
MULTI CH INPUT terminals, output without digital
processing. You can only control each channel level.
ADJUST:
This setting allows three types of control
over the sound output: You can: 1) control each
channel level individually; 2) apply the settings in
SURROUND SOUND SETUP (p.38-44) and 3) apply
different sound features (p.53-55).
OFF:
Cancels the MULTI CH IN modes.
