In this mode, the receiver outputs the sound 
from the front left/right speakers and sub 
woofer. 
When multi channel surround formats are input, 
the signals are downmixed to 2 channel with 
bass frequencies being output from the sub 
woofer. 
When standard 2 channel stereo sources are 
input, the receiver’s bass redirection circuitry 
will be activated. The front channel bass 
frequencies will be output from the sub woofer. 

Press 2CH.

“2CH ST.” appears in the display and the 
receiver switches to the 2CH STEREO mode.

The Auto Format Direct (A.F.D.) mode allows 
you to select the decoding mode you want for 
your audio sound.

Notes

• When the karaoke function is activated, you can only 

select “A.F.D. AUTO”.

• If you activate the karaoke function while A.F.D. 

mode is operating, the system will automatically 
switch to “A.F.D. AUTO”.

• Dolby Pro Logic and Dolby Pro Logic II decoding do 

not function for DTS format signals.

Decoding the input audio 
signal automatically

In this mode, the receiver automatically detects 
the type of audio signal being input (Dolby 
Digital, DTS, standard 2 channel stereo, etc.) 
and performs the proper decoding if necessary. 
This mode presents the sound as it was recorded/
encoded, without adding any surround effects. 
However, if there are no low frequency signals 
(Dolby Digital LFE, etc.) it will generate a low 
frequency signal for output to the sub woofer. 

Press A.F.D. repeatedly to select “A.F.D. 
AUTO”.

The receiver automatically detects the type of 
audio signal being input and performs the proper 
decoding if necessary.
